I would like you to create something that mimics the basic gameplay of this app using Corona (the popular game known as "Cut the Rope"): [login to view URL] Please see the detailed description for more details. ## Deliverables This is a project that uses the Corona SDK to build iPhone, iPad, and Android app. You can read more about the Corona SDK here: [login to view URL] Corona is a very powerful development environment that allows you to build iPhone, iPad, and Android apps using the "lua" programming language. It's a "write once, build anywhere" sort of environment. For this project, you just need to get the project working in the Corona simulator. You do NOT need to test the project on an iPhone or Android phone. I will do that, and let you know if any adjustments need to be made. You do NOT have to submit anything to the various app stores. Just get the app working in the Corona simulator. I have a Corona subscription to create deployment-ready builds. I would like you to create something that mimics the basic gameplay of this app using Corona (the popular game known as "Cut the Rope"): [login to view URL] Fortunately, this app is IDEAL for Corona, especially since the Corona SDK even includes a sample project that mimics the basic functionality of Cut the Rope, so clearly this can be done using Corona. The app should work exactly as it does in the App Store, but you only need to re-create the basic levels, which utilize rope cutting. I don't expect you to clone levels that use things other than rope & bubbles to achieve the result. So, what I want is just the rope-only levels, and the rope-and-bubble(s) levels. You're welcome to vary the levels slightly so that they are not identical to Cut the Rope, but please ensure that each level can actually be done! This will be a new game called "Break the Chain". Instead of rope, use chain links. There is a Corona physics "sample project" called "bridge" which shows you *exactly* how to create a bridge or "rope" made of chains, AND it even shows you how to "break" the chains by tapping with your finger! Please note the following: 1) You should have the "3-star" system that Cut the Rope has, so that users can try to get all the stars as part of the goal of each level. You should have the same level menu that Cut the Rope has, too (a very "Angry Birds"-like menu. The idea is that the user cannot proceed to the next level until completing the previous level. Each level as a number of stars possible: 1, 2, or 3. This ensures that users will try to repeat levels to maximize their stars. 2) Instead of a monster's mouth, you can use a bucket or some other object as the destination. It does not have to animate. 3) The new game should have a minimum of 20 levels, with each level showing a different chain configuration, similar to Cut the Rope. Please ensure that each level can be accomplished. They should be challenging, but doable with practice. 4) The app should function correctly in all device types available in the Corona simulator (iPad, iPhone, Android). 5) You should change the name and credits to the name and credits that I will provide to you. Thus, you should not use the name or credits seen in the app. 6) If there is a feature in the app that is impossible with Corona (since Corona does have a few minor limitations), please find a suitable work-around for the feature, or remove the feature and make appropriate accomodations in the app so that the app still looks good and functions well. I do not believe that there are any such features, though. IMAGES AND AUDIO: Obviously, there is a big copyright concern with the images and audio (not so much with the app functionality, since the functionality is already duplicated in many other apps). For purposes of *development*, you should use the images and audio from the App Store app. Before I submit this app to the App Store, I will create my own images and audio to avoid copyright issues. You should, therefore, ensure that it is easy for me to just "drop in" new images and audio of similar dimensions (and named the same of course). I think that for development purposes, it's OK to use the images and audio files, but if you believe otherwise, please let me know before starting the project so that we can resolve any potential copyright concerns. ADDENDA: I will VERY likely have many future upgrades for this app, so I think that we could potentially have a long term relationship of buyer/developer if you're interested! If the Corona app takes a while to load, please do whatever you can to reduce the load time (like only loading images and libraries "on demand" as required in the app). You should also add a progress bar to the loading screen in such a situation, but hopefully this will not be necessary.
