Just a quick update. Chris has ported Shanghai to Android, so if you’ve got an Android phone please give it a spin. Here’s the link:\u00a0http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/ludum-dare-29\/?action=preview&uid=33962<\/a><\/p>\n

If you’ve played the Web version of Shanghai, you probably would have noticed that the resolution is weird! Well the story behind it is that we realized early on we were making a puzzle game and we were having 2 parts\u00a0to the action; The Bund and the Puzzle Grid.<\/p>\n

\"Shanghai<\/p>\n

It helped emphasize the jam theme, since the grid was beneath the surface of the city… like your actions. But most of all, it just worked so much better as a mobile game. The dragging gameplay is a lot like Flow<\/a>, a great puzzle game on mobile devices. Shanghai has similar line drawing on a grid, so we naturally designed for the smartphone.<\/p>\n

Now we finally have our smartphone port available, so even if you’ve played Shanghai before… try again \":)\" It also doesn’t seem to experience the city-not-loading bug which has plagued random players since submission.<\/p>\n
