Behind the shinny resume

In my new mobile phone, I have discovered that there was an Angry Bird game application in it :) Which I am sort of addicted to it right now. It’s a no brainer for sure, but hey its fun :)

This game was developed by the Finnish computer game developer called Rovio Mobile.
In the game, the players use a slingshot to launch various type of birds at the pigs stationed on or within the various structures, with the intent of destroying all of the pigs on the playing field. As the players advance through the game, new birds will appear, some with special abilities that can be activated by the player. On each level, the green pigs are sheltered by structures made of various materials such as wood, ice, steel and stone, and the objective of the game is to eliminate all of the pigs on the level. Sometimes, the players even have to damage the structures, causing them to collapse to eliminate the pigs. In various stages of the game, additional objects such as explosive crates and rocks are found in the structures, and may be used in conjunction with the birds to destroy the hard-to-reach pigs.

There are several different types of birds that are used in the game. In the earliest levels, the basic red bird is the only one available. As the player advances through the game, additional types of birds become available. Some birds are effective against particular materials, and some have special abilities that may be activated by the player after the bird has been launched. For example, a blue bird can separate into three small birds (which is a favorite of mine), a black bird can explodes, and a white bird can drop explosive eggs. The pigs themselves also appear in different sizes. While the small pigs are relatively weak and are easily destroyed either by direct hits or by debris from the damaged structures, the larger pigs are able to sustain more damage. In addition, some pigs wear helmets as armor, making them even more resistant to damage; pigs with crowns can take the most damage.

Each level starts with the number, types, and order of birds pre-determined. If all of the pigs are defeated by the time the last bird is used, the level is completed and the next level is unlocked. Points are scored for each pig defeated as well as for damage to, or destruction of, structures, and bonus points are awarded for any unused birds. Upon completing each level, the players receive one, two, or three stars, depending on the score received. The players may re-attempt to unlocked levels as many times as they wish in order to complete them successfully or to earn additional points or stars. Plus both of the birds & the pigs are cute too :)

Anyway, a new Angry Bird game is set to launch today in the West. It is called Angry Bird Space. In the new game, the birds and pigs are sucked into outer space by a vortex. Apart from the new environments, the game also features a new character and new powers for the birds. Five of the original characters have new looks and superpowers, and there is one entirely new character that turns elements into ice on contact.
