More Info

Everybody who has children in Belgium knows Bumba. I created the iPhone/iPad version of the interactive world that already existed on www.bumba.be. It was fun doing this and this was my first cocos2d game.

Bumba and Bumbalu take the little ones on a journey of discovery through their world. This happy game for toddlers and infants is packed with entertaining sounds and funny animations. Everything your infant touches will come alive with a smile.

In addition to this interactive world, the app also contains 5 games for the youngest children! Recognizing shadows, blowing bubbles, memory, doing puzzles and discovering drawings, … your infant will learn through play, together with Bumba and his friends at the circus!

Bumba contains:

• Interactive world with entertaining sounds and funny animations
• Shadow game: which shadow is the right one?
• Puzzle game: which picture completes the drawing?
• Blowing bubbles: blow colourful bubbles and burst them with your finger
• Memory: which two drawings are identical?
• Rub the drawing: place your finger on the screen and reveal the drawing by rubbing

The application was Nr1 Paid iPad app in the Belgian App Store the week after launch.
