Hi,

I've been working on a Live Wallpaper that uses physics and g-sensor to display falling dolls in the background.

I'm about to submit it to the market, but I'd like to have some feedback about it. Tests on my Nexus were good, but we never know...

Features I plan to add:
- Settings activity to manage various parameters with physics
- Applying 'impulse' forces when touching screen
- Ability to change the 'skin' of the dolls

Any feedback welcome, thanks

Going For this right now..

GodDriven..

Not G-Driven For who KNows..

Downloaded, will try this and report back in a bit.

Edit: amagod, this is the cutest thing I've ever seen. I nearly died of cute.

Right, the little 'droids look a bit pixelated at the edges. Particularly noticeable with the head and antennae.

I'd suggest adding, if possible, a setting to set how many dolls you want falling and rolling around. Being able to change the background would be a welcome addition, too.

Just minor nitpicks, though. Excellent work, honestly, and the first live wallpaper I've ever seen that has physics. It actually reacts to the phone being shaken! (Was wondering why one of the dolls was stuck at the bottom; on impulse I gave the phone a shake and it came loose. Awesome.)

lolittle · Mar 7, 2010

Nice, works ok

A bit too slow i suppose, i think you should add the ability for more Droids

Also one of them has just seemed to get stuck in a corner and not want to move

Yougli · Mar 7, 2010

Try shaking your phone if they get stucked

I'm still working on improving the physics to allow more droids / speed.

Jrbourque · Mar 7, 2010

this **** is sick...its not slow on my phone...but agree ability to add more androids and maybe give 3 sizes to pick from for droid size..besides that awesome job

Add a couple more.. Focus on the Resolution due to Pixles, focus on the "Physics", this is new.. You should do a **** LOAD more.. Even take the same wallpapers out now, and add this feature to them.. Really, EVERYONE will love it. I Hope you keep getting testers.. Good Luck..!

Not really, Dude, Do you really know what slow is On a Nexus One..

Ditto, on what he said.. Right on the money!

Shaking this thing is hilarious fun.

Drops my phone's performance some, but admittedly I'm running a Desire ROM and Sense is something of a memory *****, so it may very well be smooth on other people's N1's.

Jesus Christ.. Another Ditto.. Try On Manup Desire.. It's Faster.. More Zip Aligns, etc.. On Cyanogen, This is smooth as butter..

Ditto, Ditto, Ditto..

Hahahaha.. GodDriven Is Back Baby...

Concerning pixels on the edge, this is due to the Android image I used that had a blue background.
I made the background transparent, but had to remove some pixels that were a bit blue. Hence the pixaleted edges.
I'll try finding another pic.

BlueScreenJunky · Mar 7, 2010

It's definitely slow, but really fun too !
Something a little faster (ie better framerate) and with the ability to chosse the background image would be absolutely perfect !

lolittle · Mar 7, 2010

Take a look at an app called "Chalky" , its just the same concept as this but not a live wallpaper of course.

When i was looking at the live wallpaper that is what a compared it too as it is the same concept of using the phones sensors and physics to control something

Now compared to Chalky on my phone this is slow, but hey that might just be my phone if everyone else is running super fast

But it is still very nice and works well, and when they got stuck a good shake got em bak out

Works great,one of the Androids does get stuck but with a few more updates it should be good. Phenomenal work, its really fun.

It's supposed to get stuck.

Part of the physics--if you shake the phone, it'll come loose.

Yougli · Mar 7, 2010

I've optimized bitmap rotations a little.
New APK attached in first post, with 9 droids falling instead of 4.

lolittle · Mar 7, 2010

Noticabley smoother than the previous version

Option to add our own wallpaper to the background and this will be my wallpaper from now on
