Daisy Chains

Time for another app, another update to this forgotten blog, and another $.99 for you to shell out for it ;)

Daisy Chains : AppStore ($0.99/£0.69/equiv)

Everybody's favourite thing to do on a lazy summer's day.


A simple mix of Labyrinth's ball rolling with Flicky's tail stealing enemies!

Roll your ball around the arena to grab hold of the daisies, then guide a chain towards the exit.
The larger your Daisy Chain, the more points you'll score, but with each level the target increases, meaning you'll need to continue to dodge the incoming enemy bugs, whilst guiding your larger chain behind you.




For those who love to read'em, the complete PR gubbins is included below.

So far, James "Jayenkai" Gamble has managed to create another 5 instant-play iOS games.

Stringy Things : A set of 4 happy bubbley word games, each with their own highscores and possible gameplay types.


Cardagain : A fantastically playable memory/card game, mixing the repetitive dullness of the rubbish card-turning pair-matching boring game of your childhood, with a much more awesome set of arcade shuffling rules. Remember the Layout, Remember the Order, Card Again!


Puzzobomb : Yet another remake of the classic block-shifting Vexed game, but this time with a few tweaks to the gameplay. The blocks no longer move in annoyingly slow ways, the gameplay skips along nice and fast, and for 36 out of the 324 included levels, there are even some nice Bombs to help you along.


SpikeDislike : A retro classic in every way. Hop the ball as far as you can, whilst avoiding the spikes. Keep up the speed to earn super combo scores, and get the highest score you can. GameCenter included!


Sheep Goes Left : A game created for those who loved SpikeDislike, but would've prefer a laid out, level based challenge. 200 levels of wonderfully tricky, but entirely achievable spike dodging, and a happy sheep to avoid them all. Hard, just like games used to be!

James "Jayenkai" Gamble has been busying away for years doing AGameAWeek, creating random games with vague playabilities, testing gameplay mechanics and trying out all the oddities that most developers wouldn't ever consider.
With all this testing, he's managed to encapsulate the essence of gameplay.

The "feel" of the game is what's important, and when creating games for iOS, that's exactly what he's attempting to achieve.
You'll know a game's made by Jayenkai when you see his trademark gameplay priorities, and experience the inexplicable lack of artistic talent.

Gameplay First : Because that's what counts.
