Barcode Scanner game?

[Jammy]

Hi there. I'm the programmer / author of the game Barcode Beasties. Although I originally started it over a year ago, I didn't have any time up until recently to improve it. However, thankfully, now I do have some time and I am working on it daily.

I'm half way through implementing the multiplayer side of it, which does include stuff like geographically locating nearby other players (in fact, I have integrated a "Layar" part to it as well, so you will be able to hold your phone up and see nearby "beasts" in real time!) and there is going to be all sorts of good stuff like levelling up, XP, trading etc etc etc.

Anyway, I'm always looking for help so if you want to assist then please get in touch. If you want to do your own thing, then good luck as well ! My email is richard@barcodebeasties.com if you want to write direct instead of via the forum.

Regards,

Richard.

That's awesome, I'd gladly help test this come the time, as long as it's after 16th of June, when I'll be getting My Desire.

I saw the adverts for these when I was a kid, but I was never allowed to buy one

There is a cool game like that! It's called Codemon. Free and ridiculously addictive.

I think this is the kind of games that would have a huge success but big teams with experiences in the field could do that not new guys trying to make it in the android market.

I dont remember any game like that!...lol but that sounds cool!!. Metroid Prime Corruption on wii had something like that, scanned this or that.. and got detialed info about weapons, upgrades. also the monsters in the game and battles etc , it all went in the database. I LOVED scanning everything and making sure i didnt miss anything

This sounds like a pretty fun game, then you'll see a lot of kids in grocery stores looking like theyre shoplifting

Hi! I'm an artist with quite a following on youtube and deviantART (Around 20 000 Subs) I would love to be a part of something like barcode beasties or codemon so if someone here is some kind of programmer then I would love to collaborate to create one of these barcode games! I've been trying to make one myself but I have never coded before ( The most difficult thing I ever made was a dress up game in flash lol) so I could really use some help..
Here's an example of my work :https://klaracrystalpaws.deviantart.com/art/One-with-nature-741243812

@Klarikatt, I would just point out that this thread started over 8 years ago. I doubt you'll find any of the original players still posting here.
