After each puzzle has been completed, you’ll receive a surprising fact about the animal. The game includes over 80 puzzles. Free for iOS and Android.
Cocos2d-x is very suitable for 2d games, it is very light and is easily customizable. The game Cardinal Land doesn’t require complicated visual effect and physics. Cocos2d-x perfectly fits these requirements. Unity or Unreal Engine are much heavier than Cocos2d-x and are better suitable for 3d games.
Cocos2d-x has various graphics components, animation and action types, which are easily integrate and customize in the game. Also it allows easy implementation of custom graphics shaders. This open source allows to easily customize some engine components. I think the engine needs improvement of ttf-fonts implementation. I met some artifacts working with these components, so I did some modification to fit the game requirements.
