We just released an update for K’UMPA to the Android Market, which renders correctly with high resolution devices like the Motorola droid and Milestone. In fact, all available screen resolutions are supported now, including small screens devices like the HTC Tattoo. The new version includes improved sounds, and a new error reporting tool. K’UMPA V1.1 is available for free in the Android Market.
The next K’UMPA update will be released in the Android Market shortly. You can download the sneak preview version here: http://kumpa-game.com/Kumpa.apk
Update: K’UMPA 1.1 is already available in the Android Market!
The results of Android Developer Challenge 2 are in: congratulations to all the winners! K’UMPA did not win a price, but made it in the top 10 of the casual games category. Thanks for everyone who voted for K’UMPA.
If you downloaded K’UMPA before November, 27th, the game will quit after showing “This test version has exired.” Please update to the current version 1.0.1, which fixes this issue. The expiration was a relict from early test version, and has been removed completely now. Sorry for this inconvenience and thanks for your understanding.
Currently, we are working on supporting droid and Motorola’s Milestone. Although K’UMPA was designed to handle a variety of screen sizes, some specific Android OS mechanisms require us to make some adjustments. It should not take long, so please check back soon if you are looking for a droid version of K’UMPA.
K’UMPA was selected by Android users as one of the top 20 casual games in the first round of the Android Developer Challenge 2. We are very excited about this and we hope K’UMPA makes it into the Top 3. In the second round of ADC2, 40 % of the score will come again from the ADC2 judging app, which users can download. This time however, 60% will come from Google-selected judges. So, keep your fingers crossed for K’UMPA.
If you want to learn more about K’UMPA, just download it from the Market (it’s free) or have a look at some screenshots. We’ll also add more content to the web site soon.
Today we released K’UMPA to the Android Market. It is free to download and getting it is very easy: just search for “kumpa” in the Android Market, scan the QR code at the right, or use this direct link to the market (if you view this page inside your Android browser). We also released the first level pack, which brings you more challenging levels and new challenges.
So, please give K’UMPA a try and let us know what you think of it! And if you have problems please report them to us with (e.g. log file) so we can fix it.
After months of development, we will release our Android-exclusive game K’UMPA in the Android Marke tomorrow. We think the first Android barcamp & conference (droidcamp/droidcon) in Berlin is just the right occasion.
We just uploaded 8 in-game screenshots from K’UMPA. Hope you like the graphics.
Our Android-exclusive game K’UMPA is almost ready for public release. Starting now, we will share the link to a preview version with a small group of people. This is the next milestone after we submitted K’UMPA to the Android Developer Challenge 2 in late August.
Nevertheless, we work hard on the last pending issues before releasing version 1.0:
- The extension map is still work in progress
- Sound synchronization and volume
- Shared highscores
- kumpa-game.com design
Also, if we get some major user feedback, it might go into version 1.0.
