Simple Android game written in React Native Game Engine. It is a simple catch 'em up game where you have to catch as many insects as you can. The game is intended for kids with eye disorders, the background is intentionally difficult on the eyes and forces the eyes to "work more" and therefore helps to exercise them.

The game uses React Native and Expo which make writing and building the app a breeze.

Writing the game was quite simple. The game logic consists of a bunch of systems in src/game/systems.tsx. Graphics is mostly the background and the sprites, which are stored as animated GIFs. Developing and building was crazy simple with Expo, no need to install any Android stuff locally.

Sadly, the game does not perform well on older hardware. Works great on my Motorola One Vision, but there are noticeable lags on Samsung Galaxy Tab A. It's partially because of the GIF animation, removing that helps, but there are still lags from time to time even without animation.

First a disclaimer, I am NOT a doctor, nor have I discussed this app with one. However, this game uses basic principles that are used in professional optometric games. Unfortunately, these games are not available for purchase or are quite expensive, so I decided to write something similar.

The graphics were found and downloaded from Open Game Art. Namely I would like to thank https://bevouliin.com/ for sharing his/her awesome work online for free.
