Math Classroom Challenge & Meteoroids 3D on Nintendo Switch

Hi there!

We’re happy to inform that this week two new more games are coming for prepurchase on Nintendo Switch.

The first is “Math Classroom Challenge“, one of the most used games by the teachers of Edshelf, and a game for the whole family to enjoy playing while learning mathematics.

The second game available for prepurchase on Nintendo Switch is “Meteoroids 3D“, a tribute to Asteroids, and a crazy game where you must destroy as many meteors as you can. The game also includes enemies, the UFO, and 24 levels plus an infinite level.

Both will be available next September 29, and now are ready for reserve. Here you can see a video for each one of them. Thank you!

Elva the Eco Dragon tutorial recorded

No doubt, the best way to see a game in action is watching the game running on the hardware.

We have recorded the first tutorial of Elva the Eco Dragon directly from the Nintendo Switch, so you can see how it works and feels. The tutorial is just five minutes long, and shows some of the main features of the game. Thanks!

New area “Greenhouse gases” coming to Nintendo Switch

Hello there!

First of all, we want to thank all Nintendo Switch users who have trusted their purchase to enjoy Elva the Eco Dragon, the game where we learn to take care of the Earth. And also the space and the Moon!

Now we are pleased to report that the first free scenario for the game is being prepared and fine-tuned, and will be named “Greenhouse gases”.

In this scenario we will have to go through a gigantic tunnel over the Earth, being careful not to go out of its edges, and collect different spheres of greenhouse gases. These gases will then be processed so that their effects do not harm the Earth. We will have to fill the bars of gases, and avoid the mines that will make us lose points, and cause part of these collected gases to be lost.

We will talk about all this very soon with a first video, thank you very much for your support!

Unity Addressables: the future is asynchronous

In this new article we are going to talk about “Addressables“, which is how Unity has named its new memory management policy, much more modern than the classic system, which was comfortable, but very inefficient.

“Addressables” comes to alleviate a number of important shortcomings in memory management operations, and incorporates a very important new feature: the possibility of remote updates only of those elements that we have defined, without having to download the entire game in each update. A technology that has a part of science and knowledge, but another part of art. Because there is a manual for Addressables, but not a single way to proceed. It will depend on the game, the objectives, and the developers’ own interests.

Math Classroom Challenge 3.0 is here!

Hi there! We’re happy to inform that Version 3.0 of Math Classroom Challenge is now available on Xbox One S/X and Steam!

New version 3.0 is called Super Drone! Now you can play the game in first person view as usual, but you can also switch to a third view with a drone. With the drone you can move around the scenario and even change that view to see as if you were flying the drone.

But there are changes to the Winter area, the Moon area, and a new area called “Math Island” where you’ll have to deal with math day and night.

We also have corrected some minor problems to the game.

And remember: panels with math problems must be solved. The panel with the halo is the active. Throw water with the water hose to the flying number to solve the math problem. When a panel is finished, start with the new one.

Also remember: there will appear math panels with three solutions, choose the right one with the water hose. You can also call one of these panels (take a look to the help for pad commands).

Do math teachers use Math Classroom Challenge? Here you can see some of them.

Enjoy math in a 3D world, thank you!

Elva the Eco Dragon Climate change is here!

Finally! We have published version 2.0 of “Elva the Eco Dragon” with many new features and an important new scenario: Climate change. In this scenario you’ll have to save the forest and rescue animals on a lost island.

The game is now translated into Japanese. Coming to Xbox April 28th.
