Here is a snapshot of what will be the Karma game that will make Karma known to the masses of android users (there are millions of them!).We are developing it as a PC game, because it is easier for me to port it to Android phones/tablets (I have an android port already).
We may even create a port for web browsers, so that you can play the game on any browser (firefox, chrome, etc).
The simple rules of the game are:
The elephant is controlled with the finger (in the PC version click and drag the mouse).
Each time you pick up a coin, the Karma count (top right) increases by an amout that depends on the current speed.
You increase the speed of the elephant by picking up the yellow glowing power ups.
The more yellow powerups you pick up, the more coins you are going to get both because the elephant runs faster and because each coin count as more than one coin (speed 2-> 2 coins, speed 3 -> 3 coins, etc).
I may remove this feature if you think it does not make that much sense, as the elephant will get more coins anyway with greater velocity (as long as you do not hit an obstacle).
We (me and learminer) are currently thinking about a way to implement a secure paying system, so that any coins you get in the game are converted to real Karma coins in your wallet.
We could put a feature in the game that would allow people playing the game to send the coins they earned directly to one of Kamafund.me fundraisers, or alternatively let the user input his wallet address.
This allows people that do not have a wallet already, to play the game and feel they can make their coins to a good use.
Please check out this demo of the game:

When we touch something and the game over comes up its so sudden and kind of scary. its "pow!" game over. perhaps you can slow down the game over sound? lower it? change it?Anyone else shares this feeling or am i just a scary baby elephant?
Can you add an option to lower the sound of turn it off at least.
Can you add as small texture at first screen to show this is karma coin related and our msg
