Corona Geek #142 – Ichi Game Mechanics, Bumpers, and One Touch Input

During last week’s Hangout we looked at how to create and match puzzle pieces. If you’ve ever asked yourself, “How do you do that?” this will help answer your questions. There’s also some bonus bits about snapping objects to corners.

This week we explored the core mechanics for creating an Ichi game. We covered the creation of bumpers, bumper turning, one-touch input, and creating goal objects/sensors. Download the code to see how everything works.
