Launch of the Paper Rocket game on the Play Store

Developed in Game Maker Studio 2, we launched our first mobile game, completely free and without advertisements, on the Play Store platform.

It was an incredible journey and experience that opens doors for the studio's games on digital platforms!

Welcome to the exciting Paper Rocket universe!

Get ready for a unique cosmic adventure with our exciting new game: Paper Rocket! Explore the space of a sheet of paper while piloting your spaceship equipped with colorful shots.

Your mission? Paint the universe with the vibrant colors of stars, moons and planets. Shoot blue, navy blue, yellow, red, orange and green shots to color the space, but be careful with the spots that obstruct your vision! Use white shots to clean the screen and keep the universe (ops the paper) spotless.

Shoot and color!

In this game, you take control of a special ship equipped with colorful shots, with the mission of coloring outer space with vibrant and vivid tones.

Your bullets can be dyed in six different colors: blue, navy blue, yellow, red, orange and green. Fire your colorful shots towards stars, moons and planets to fill them with corresponding colors. Celebrate the sparkling beauty of a universe full of colors like never before!

Across 30 exciting levels, you'll face increasing challenges as you put your skills to the test. Two types of cunning enemies will cross your path, trying to block and deflect your colorful shots. Strategy and agility are crucial to overcoming these obstacles and continuing to advance.

The game is not just about painting the space with vibrant colors, but also about achieving your best score and record. Every move counts, as your score determines the pace of the game's evolution. Master the levels and accumulate points. Challenge yourself to set new time records while completing levels. Each game is an opportunity to overcome yourself and improve your colorful navigation skills.

Are you ready to become the master of color in the universe? Download Paper Rocket now and dive into a galactic adventure that combines action, strategy and color in ways you never imagined!

Your colorful journey is about to begin.

III Game Jam Fábrica de Jogos

We concluded our participation in the III Game Jam Fábrica de Jogo 2021 where in 48 hours we managed to deliver a beautiful Game card called Bee Preserve!

We chose to participate in the construction of the board game category, sending the entire GDD by email, as unfortunately it was not possible to load this format on Itch.io.

The game design was carried out considering hand management mechanics and take that! We put a lot of effort into the design of the cards and the super fun characters! The game's prototype is uploaded to Tabletopia.

Lecture at Gencon 2021 - TEACHING PROGRAMMING LOGIC TO CHILDREN WITH BOARD GAMES

We talked about the challenges of teaching logic in schools, its impact on higher education and how Board Games help in the development of children and young people, being a very useful tool for mitigating this GAP.

I presented my academic experiences in my IT degree and that of my son Cadu in elementary school, which culminated in the development of the educational board game SACODE!

Lecture given by Game Designer Bruno de Matos Figueiredo.
