Hello,

You can now play Flying Zuzzi on your iPad just search for the game under iPhone apps in the iPad AppStore. It is not yet a native app but it looks good.

Flying Zuzzi

As I was building this app it occurred to me that I need to add some features to it but was it a good ideea to extend an existing app? is this app to much of a copy? do people only create this Flappy Bird game to gain profit ? where is my passion ? what can I bring to the AppStore to be fresh and new?

This are just a few of the questions to which I try to find answers. So I decided to create a final version of my first app ,Flying Zuzzi and move on to something great. I had plans on how to expand this game and make it better but it will never outpass Flappy Bird and its not my idea which makes me feel sad that I will always be in the shadow of the first developer who created this game.

Moving forward I have some good ideas for games and apps so stay true to your passion and find your own way that will bring you joy and fulfillment.

All the best to you,

Vio

Hello people,

Flying Zuzzi

Flying Zuzzi Episode I

This is my first app so please be gentle with Zuzzi as she tries to escape the high gardens where she was held captive by her evil twin Zantos. The story begins in a small kingdom of flufy and colourful animals. King Zantinii had twins, Zuzzi and Zantos and because Zuzzi was first born she was the true heir of the kingdom but her brother Zantos never agreed with this and he was mean with Zuzzi so after the king died he took Zuzzi in the High Gardens of Rocky Mountains and took the throne for himself.

This is just a snippet of the story that follows. So stay tuned and subscribe for the future episodes of Flying Zuzzi.

Flying Zuzzi Episode I: The beginning of an adventure

Zuzzi has to fly over trees and try to advance as much as possible. This game will focus in controlling Zuzzi as you guide her to escape the forrest.

Flying Zuzzi Episode II: Friends join the adventure

Little description: Zuzzi will be joined by her friend Coco.

Flying Zuzzi Episode III: Battle for the throne

Description is secret.

 

Thank you for reading.

Cheers.

Moov disappointment

Helo guys,

I have just returned from my run with Moov. It is crap I tell you pure crap. After selecting a program I ran for 2 minutes when it started to say Moov disconnected and then at every 1 / 2 minutes the same. I have started Nike Running up the same time just to keep a record of my distance. But I can tell you the Nike Running up offers the same functionality like this Moov device.

Moov is speaking with you in a awful voice every 1 minute repeating the same text. Swing your arms…and then swing your arms….swing your legs nothing like  in the commercial video.

By the way if you press Getting Started it will open a page in the browser……Seriously is it that hard to add a video in the app and a text to tell you how to use the app. Awful.

OK, now lets be professional about it:

Moov has 4 programs and 46 levels.

  1. Brisk Walk
  2. Running Efficiency
  3. Sprint Intervals (My favorite)
  4. Speed Endurance

What I did today it was Sprint Interval and as a beginner I started with level 1.

“Add to home screen” website image

Hi guys,

A cool thing you can do with your website is to set the links which appear as shortcuts on your iPhone or iPad when you press “Add to home screen”.

This is a very cool feature if you have responsive design websites that people use constantly from devices.

Yes Apple is awesome. 🙂

Requirements: I would like to be able to change the images that appear when I use the feature “Add to home screen” my website on apple devices.
