Tap Rafting - Interview with the developer of a fantastic app

Did you have any prior development or coding experience?

Only some from the first semester of my university studies.

What was the most challenging aspect of developing mobile app?

Creating art, and learning how to publish in the different app stores. Also learning a new coding language and the Unity engine.

_{Thomas Johannessen}

Thomas is studying in Uni, and learning some game development on the side with Tap Rafting already published successfully on the app stores.

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

Flappy Bird for great inspiration.

How long have you been working on this app?

2 months.

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

It's a very casual, but also challenging and difficult mobile game. Just for the users to casually enjoy during their downtime.

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.

I wouldn't exactly say it's some revolutionary app or anything, but it kinda has small nuances, and differences from other similar games. I am most proud that it works, and that it was accepted to the stores.

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

I might add different player characters, and a system for collecting points, if enough people want it.

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.)?

Downloading or sharing the app would be cool :)
