Plinky Plonk XMas!

I'm so so excited and happy to be able to FINALLY make this blog entry! :D We've been waiting a few weeks for Apple to approve the app and now that it's out we finally have the go ahead!

By we I mean Bev Bush (Games Design Course leader at UCLAN), Hannah Spikings (A fellow, extremely talented, student) and Jane Cull from FoCul who made the whole thing possible. They're amazing people so I'd suggest clicking their names and checking them out. In a non-creepy way. :D 

Plinky Plonk is an iPad App that helps teach children how to play the piano and allows you to earn coins to spend in the game's shop. We revamped the game from its previous version and added the Pond Scene, which you can build up by unlocking characters with the points that you earn.

I'd tell you more but I don't want to give everything away, so please do download it if you can - it's FREE! :D Here's a link to the game in the app store to make it even easier for you to get to it.

Here's a few screenshots of the game to show you a bit of what it's like:





And then to add to it a little more, here's some larger versions of a couple of the characters I made for this version:





There'll also be a non-Christmassy version of the app released at some point soon, so look out for a blog post about that when it happens! :D

If anyone wants to help spread the word that would be amazing, and thank you so much for reading and playing if you did! 

(~^-^)~
