Loli’s Adventure was the first mobile game project I saw through to completion as lead programmer. I learned a lot from it and got a feel for how it differs from browser games. The project was built with PHP (AMFPHP) + AIR (Starling plus traditional UI), and on the front end, Starling + traditional UI still runs into plenty of performance limits — from here on, I plan to drop traditional UI entirely for mobile games. This year is a breakout year for mobile platform products, and my interest is sky-high right now.

A game built around KUSO fairy tales. It brings together three things: hero development, city building, and tower defense. Players build up their own virtual territory and raise cute fairy-tale heroes while following a lighthearted, fun story through the fairy-tale world, until they finally defeat a powerful demon. Game features:

Feature 1: Dream world building — Loli’s Adventure has a simple yet fun city building system. It stands for a girl’s inner world, playful and full of dreamlike color. Players can not only construct all kinds of structures of the mind, but also harvest and grow them as time passes. It lets players enjoy the fun of raising and building.

Feature 2: Hero development — Loli’s Adventure makes your fairy-tale hero dream come true. In the game you can get help from all sorts of fairy-tale characters and recruit them for your own use. Players can not only train and upgrade all kinds of fairy-tale heroes, but also mix and match lineups to forge a powerful dream legion.

Feature 3: Classic tower defense mode — Loli’s Adventure‘s signature tower defense mode comes in two flavors: story and difficulty. In story mode, players travel through all kinds of KUSO fairy-tale worlds, fighting and growing alongside the protagonist; difficulty mode is tailor-made for hardcore players, letting them break their own limits and push to the extreme.

Feature 4: Compendium mode — Loli’s Adventure has a rich story system. Every hero you collect and every enemy you defeat is displayed in the compendium. You can read fun little stories about the heroes, and get a deeper look at your enemies too.

Feature 5: Strategy — The fairy-tale heroes in Loli’s Adventure each have their own attributes and skills. How you get through each stage comes down to how you raise and understand your heroes. Different terrain and enemies call for different combinations of heroes and skills. The path to victory lies in your clever brain — come give the challenge a try!

Feature 8: Graphics — Loli’s Adventure uses 960×640 pixel, 1024-color graphics, with crisp HD image quality and a bold, lively, finely detailed art style. Six campaigns in a range of styles, three difficulty levels with four or five exquisitely crafted maps, hundreds of monsters with distinctive looks, and spectacular battle scenes with more than four hundred units on screen at once — tower defense fans won’t be able to stop playing! Loli fans won’t be able to resist! Let’s all join in!
