[Marius Constantinescu]

Hello,

I'm Marius Constantinescu, final year student from Romania. I'm interested
in creating applications for iOS with Tux. I have a bit of iOS game
development experience, gained by learning on my own.

I think it's useless to create Tux Typing for mobile, because the keyboard
is different, it takes almost half of the screen. Moreover, typing is not
the main way to interact with mobile devices. Tux Paint should only be
targeted on iPads (the display on iPods and iPhones is too small to be used
as a canvas). That's why, I would like to create Tux Math for iOS, and
later, other educational games with Tux.

Taking into account that the main factor that decides if a game is
successful or not is its graphics, I am curious whether there will be a
graphics designer who can help us with the visual images. I'm confident
that I can handle the programming part, but a game for kids should also
look good. I have some experience with photoshop, but I'm far from being a
good game graphics designer, and I will need some images. I saw that there
are some pictures with Tux on git repos, and I will use free images from
the web, but it would still be nice if a graphics designer could help.

Marius
