I've been working on remaking one of my favorite games (Circus Atari) for the ipad / iphone and I'm at a point where I'm not really sure what to do. I've built achievements into the game because, well, I'm a huge xbox achievement whore and I always thought it would be fun to create my own. I'm stuck on what to name the achievements however. I'm not really coming up with anything very fun or witty, and I don't want to just name them what they do. So this post is to ask everyone here on ideas for names for the chieves. I'm going to draw little icons for them as well but I can't draw them until I know what they are called. The achievement system isn't integrated into plus+ or open feint. It only exists in the game so there are no limits to anything. Again the game I'm remaking is Circus Atari. It's like Arkanoid but there are 2 balls (clowns) and instead of a paddle they land on a see-saw. Here is a screen from my game. Here is a list of achieves I'm tracking so far. If you don't like any or you think of any good ones let me know. Achievements: In 1 game Clear a row Clear 5 rows Clear 25 rows Clear 100 rows 5 launched high in a row 25 launched high in a row - High Five! 5 launched low in a row - 25 launched low in a row - Low Rider Clear 1 row in 1 jump Clear 2 rows in 1 jump Clear 3 rows in 1 jump Pop 10 with pin finger Pop 50 with pin finger Pop 100 with pin finger Across the life of the Game 1 post to Facebook 10 posts to Facebook - Attention Whore (this is the only one I've named so far) 1000 jumps - Don't You Have Homework To Do? 10,000 jumps Updating names from you guys in bold While I'm at it I guess I still have no clue on a name of the game. Any ideas are welcome
This gave me flashbacks to Killer Instinct in the arcades. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efU_EHT6Nxo&feature=related If KI2 came out on the ipad I would pay $50 for it.
Clear a row: Junior Rower Clear 5 rows : Rising Rower Clear 25 rows : Master Rower Clear 100 rows : Grandmaster Rower 5 launched high in a row - High Five! 25 launched high in a row - High twenty-fi- oh wait, damn. 5 launched low in a row - Low 5? 25 launched low in a row - Low Rider 1 post to Facebook- Let The Advertising Commence! 10 posts to Facebook - Attention Whore (this is the only one I've named so far) 1000 jumps: Don't You Have Homework To Do? 10,000 jumps: Get A Life
lol this one is awesome. My wife was in here reading these with me and she said 'dammit I do have homework I should be doing'.
I added a few more achievements to the OP. We added power ups and some stats are tracked in one of them. There is a balloon you can get called 'pin finger' that lets you touch the balloons for 10 seconds popping them. Pop 10 with pin finger Pop 50 with pin finger Pop 100 with pin finger Any ideas on these?
Pop 10 with pin finger - crusher finger Pop 50 with pin finger - killer finger Pop 100 with pin finger - monster finger
