Welcome to Team Pora Featuring Sneaky Snatcher










As the transition of digital computing continues to shift, people’s way of living and their way of doing things have also changed. The virtually created spaces have made it even easier for them to navigate into cyberspace without literally moving an inch. This pervasive change in technology made humans crave for applications that were never available before.

In this generation of technological advancement, people use technology for their own benefits, needs, and wants for easy living. The call for sophisticated applications has been a necessity since digital computers’ existence. One of which is the desire of humans to have fun. Fun may be encountered in many human activities during work, social functions, recreation and play, and even in seemingly mundane activities of daily living.

Nowadays, people are really dependent on technologies that even their leisure times are dedicated to using gadgets rather than spending time outdoors. They make use of the time staying at home, relaxing, at the same time having fun playing by using gadgets particularly mobile phones when they are bored. They view this activity as a quick escape from reality and letting them enter a dimension where they have all the control.

A mobile game is a video game played on a feature phone, smart phone, PDA, tablet computer, portable media player or calculator. This does not include games played on dedicated handheld video game systems such as Nintendo 3DS or PlayStation Vita.

Mobile game offers the same fun and entertainment that people look for in an application. From its special effects down to interactive graphics and visualization, mobile games are increasingly becoming sophisticated- technological improvements.

Older mobile phone games were not as expansive or popular as games for consoles since the hardware of the early mobile phone were not compatible with high-colored screening or sounds beyond differently pitched beeps. These games were also usually animated with shaded squares like Snake due to their limited graphical quality. Unlike today's mobile phone games, which are usually purchased, these games come pre-installed and can't be copied or removed.

With the advent of the camera phone, mobile phones have become more common. The storage and graphic capabilities of these phones are better than the older candy bar style phones and this means that higher quality games can be produced. This also means that companies could now make a profit off of the games because of their superior quality. Some early companies utilized the camera phone technology for mobile games. Today, mobile phone games have come a very long way. Their graphics are about the same as you would expect on a 4th or 5th generation game console which may not seem like a very big improvement yet is considered one because the game is played on a cell phone. Mobile phone games now tend to take up a large amount of memory on cell phones.

After the integration of 3D APIs into mobile platforms, the mobile gaming world started to launch its own brand games. The 3D game development became the primary area of mobile game development and mobile gaming became one of the most important gaming platforms.

Most of the mobile games are built around a particular theme or a specific story line. Through these, the application is more fun, challenging, and entertaining. So, we came up with this idea to design and develop a Mobile-based Fruit Snatcher Android Game to entertain the users through its powerful graphic design and courageous storyline.

The purpose of developing this Android game is primarily to entertain mobile users of all ages. The game follows a storyline about a very old farmer named Joe who, because of old age, is not any more capable of tending his farm. This causes him so much debt and endangering his farm of being expropriated by the banks he is indebted to. Then here comes the two mighty thieves. Mighty not for their means of living but of their fame of using the wealth they steal by helping those in need. Every night the two mighty thieves sneak out to rob fruits from the miracle tree owned by Farmer Joe. The miracle tree is not just any ordinary tree; hence, the culprits need extraordinary tools to enable them to gather fruits from the tree. To make things tricky for robbers, several booby traps are set to trigger the alarm scale, awaken the old farmer and catch the culprits. This is where the fun begins.
