Luna Signal - Interview with the developer of a fantastic app

Did you have any prior development or coding experience?

Yes, I wrote my first computer program 30 years ago. Developing commercial applications last 18 years.

What was the most challenging aspect of developing mobile app?

Most challenging was the optimization in developing the game by only using native Java language for Android, so that the game can run smoothly even on low-end devices.

In 2001, I graduated from the University of Novi Sad in Electrical and Computer Science. I was working as a developer, team leader and project manager on many telecommuting and on site projects. Overall, 18 years in commercial application development. Last 8 years focused on Android applications and game development. Currently founder and CEO of Digital Atrium. Company is focused on mobile applications development (Android and iOS).

IDE knowledge: Eclipse, NetBeans, JDeveloper, JBuilder, Carbide C++;
Database knowledge: Postgre SQL, Oracle, MySql;
Application knowledge: Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, Microsoft Office, Microsoft SQL Server 7, Toad for Oracle Server, Macromedia Dreamweaver UltraDev, Tomcat Web server, Rational Rose, Matlab;

Name a few of your favorite apps and reason you love them.

"Viber" - for communication over internet. "Weather2Umbrella" for weather forecast. "Here We Go" - for maps and offline navigation. "Google Translate" - translation service.

How long have you been working on this app?

Actually, the game was initially developed 14 years ago for old j2me phones before Android existed. Later I ported it to Android. Overall, real development took around one and a half years.

What need of the user did you have in mind when developing this app?

Mainly I have in mind middle age users who played games on computers a long time ago, but I hope our kids will like it aswell.

In what way do you think your app is better than similar apps on the market? Please describe in detail what innovation you think you bring and what you are proud of in your app.

The game "Luna Signal" is developed from scratch without using any popular frameworks for game development. It is simple game, easy to play, with nice graphics and smart enemies. 100% free without in-app purchases. It was my son's dream to make a game which many users will play and enjoy it for free.

What are your future plans and expected features of the coming new versions of this app?

Plan is to re-use the game engine for making new and more complex games.

Assuming new users of your app are reading this page. What do you want to ask them to do (contact you about X, Share the app, etc.)?

I want to ask them to enjoy the game, share it with friends and write some nice comments if they like it.

Luna Signal

About App: "An unknown signal came down from the moon and took control over all the machines on Earth. Humans succeeded in hijacking some combat vehicles to fight back. Your task is to capture all enemy flags (red) and fly your flags (blue). On the way, you will sometimes find hijacked vehicles you can get into and use as your advantage." If you like 2D shooters, labyrinths, science fiction, strategic or retro style games, you will like Luna Signal as well. 100% free without in-app purchases. Just watch the advertisement video if you want to add more ammo or increase your energy during the game.
