I play the Pokemon game, ended up at the Game Corner, play this VOLTORB thing and that’s it, the rest of the game now doesn’t exist.

I’m making this project open-source because I don’t have times to continue. You can make your own complete game out of this. It has:

  • The basic gameplay
  • The level up/level down mechanism, upto level 8
  • Basic grid generator algorithm

and lack of:

  • Tile marking system (done this and basically it’s a playable, alpha game)
  • The quit button
  • Some touch features

Complete the project and I would love to play that all day long :wink:

VOLTORB Flip is a minesweeper-like game, in which you have to flip all 2 and 3 valued tiles in order to win. It’s 5 by 5 grid, each row and column have clues about what the total of tile values is in that row/column, and also the total of bombs (VOLTORB - the name of a Pokemon).

Nintendo is ruthless on copyright, be careful. I even saw many non profit games get shut down from them

That sounds problematic.
Would that make senses for me to leave that for people to continue to modify this? This won’t appear on Steam or Play Store or so…

LoveRoms just has been shutdown with $100mil so I feel a bit uh-oh, just in case.

Honestly, from what I remember of Voltorb Flip, you could probably do fine just changing the name and graphics, the latter of which won’t be that much work considering how small it is. It might be premature worry, but Nintendo’s been a little… ehhhnnnn… in the past.
