It's National Video Games Day!
So let's do something fun AND get a chance to advertise. 3 questions:
1) Your favorite video game.
2) The game that made you want to become a game developer.
3) A link to what you consider your "best" game.

Replied on Twitter, @adent42 ...
1) Favourite Video Game - Mr. Do! (Arcade)
2) Game that made me want to become a game developer - Space Invaders (I'm THAT old, yeah I know...)
3) I definitely consider Courier Chaos to be my best (and wackiest!) game so far, and one I even managed to get out of the door!:-

1) Your favorite video game.
I loved Metroid and Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It's a toss-up. And more recently (but still old...): Altitude.
2) The game that made you want to become a game developer.
Hmm. Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord (1980). That and some of the early text-based Zork clones. My cousin and I used to program Choose Your Own Adventure games in Basic on cassette tapes (oh yeah!).
3) A link to what you consider your "best" game.
Still need to make it. My best effort to date with GameSalad is something I haven't released but it's an educational game to help students learning to read.
I've done a fair amount of consulting for other people as well. One of the apps I'm proudest of because it involved a sophisticated timing system is IRON JOE KICKBOXING WORKOUT: https://www.amazon.com/IRON-JOE-KICKBOXING-WORKOUT-english/dp/B00IPUQ25O. It doesn't look like much but there's some KICK *** coding in there.

What about https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.japsterscavern.parcelmonkey?
Same game mate.... thought it best to change the name, as there is actually a courier firm called "Parcel Monkey"! :frowning:
I mean I thought you would want to show that your game is on both platforms. But whatever floats your boat.
