Detox (Nuke) available ! (iOS & Android)

Hi guys,

I’ve been working these last months on a game I’ve just released, Detox (Nuke). Available on Appstore (http://apple.co/1Gnx6wj) and Playstore (http://bit.ly/1J2T3Eg).

I take this opportunity to thank the cocos2dx community, forums & documentation have been very helpful.

Pitch…

"Nuclear plant is shooting toxic wastes, swipe them to the cleaning truck, tap the truck before it’s full. And save the world. Login to Facebook, enter the contest and try to reach the top of the leaderboard!

Select your mode game mode and keep up the pace:
- Game A: slow pace, easy
- Game B: fast pace, challenging !

This game was inspired by “Game & Watch” games, sold between 80’ and 90’. It’s a single screen game, with simple yet rich gameplay"


On the backend side:

  • Amazon S3 is used to save and share screenshot
  • Though many leaderboard services are available out there, I preferred implementing my own due the limitations. That was a very interesting exercise, far from trivial when you want something that can handle a lot of requests (who knows :smile:) … I used “polyglot persistence” (a new buzzword it seems…) with CouchDB (long-term persistance) and Redis (cache, performances).
  • The game “discusses” with the backend using REST webservices implemented with Python Flask.

Hope you’ll enjoy, feedback appreciated !

Thanks & Cheers
Sebastien
