J-Box - 3D game for iPhone

Project background

J-Box is the follower of the classic J-Bird game. We tried to preserve the same spirit and fun of J-Bird and, at the same time, introduce new experience - roaming monsters you are expected to deal with by using different controls. Move the cube, a game main hero, to change the colour of each tile on a pyramid. The level is passed if all the tiles are recoloured.

Solutions highlights

The game mission is to pass levels by moving the cube, (a game main hero) and changing colors of each tile of a pyramid. Each move in the game is scored. The victory over a monster gives you extra bonus points. You are also gifted extra lives and can move on life rafts. The faster you pass the level, the more points you get.

There are different controls you can use:

  1. Onscreen buttons
  2. Left or right-handed joystick
  3. Accelerometer-based control

You can also switch between these controls during the game.
