Released the major update just 3 days back.

New features include -
1. Total of 100 diseases in the dictionary.
2. BMI calculator
3. Reference Charts for blood tests and urinalysis

In the next update I'll add more diseases.

App Improvement

This week I was busy in adding more features to the medicator app. As of now its a very basic app but with some more features (which I don't want to reveal at the moment) it will be much more useful and complete.

You can expect this update to be rolled out in the first week of february.

At present I've changed my priority from game development to app development. First I want to focus only on this app and then I'll work on the game which I was building.I don't know how much time will I spend on this one but its a very good learning experience for me.

For first 2 days of the week which I spent on SpinIt . I learnt how to add swipe movement to the game screen by changing camera using lerp function in c# unity. I was having some problem in implementing it correctly but in the end I got it right. I am planning to redesign the levels and make them more interesting than just plain blocks.

I'll try my best to resume my game project just after completing the app.

Thank you.

Medicator Launched !

After making some changed to the android app I was making I published it on the google play store.

I've found that when we fall ill, sometimes we are not able to judge what kind of disease we might be having and we can't even search disease based on our symptoms. Now, no need to worry about that and now you don't even need to memorize the symptoms of common disease. Medicator will help you out. Medicator - Your own Virtual Doctor.

Let's talk about some of its features.
 
It has a checkup feature which can tell the user which kind of disease a patient might be suffering from. Currently, it supports only 5 diseases Malaria, Dengue, Typhoid, Jaundice and Stomach flu(Viral). I am planning to add 5 more diseases in the next update which I've planned to roll out by 1st Feb.


It also has a built in dictionary. This dictionary holds information regarding signs & symptoms, causes , diagnosis, prevention, treatment of various diseases. This can prove to be very handy. Currently it has 12 diseases and in the next update I may increase this number to 50 or 60.

You can try this app here ->  Medicator

 I was thinking of making a medical app like this for a long time especially after winning the app designing competition conducted by Google Developers Group last year in our college and here it is.
I know that this can be made much better , just wait for the updates they are on their way! 


I also uploaded a primitive version of my long term game project. In this game you have to collect the required number of coins and try to avoid red colored enemies or they will blast your lovely little green ball. You can play that game here - SpinIt . Currently it has only 3 levels to complete. I'll be adding loads of stuff into this one before publishing.

Developing something on your own is super exciting and when you see that your game or app is played/used by others it gives you huge satisfaction.

These days I am spending a lot of time in thinking about a good game or a fantastic app. If you have any suggestions or reviews and want to share with me you're always welcome.

Thank you for reading and do try these little creations of mine.

Writing Again !

I stopped writing on this blog for around 1 year. I was trying to do a lot of things simultaneously and not able to handle them properly.

But now, I am starting to write again.

The year 2015 was like an eye opener for me. Got to learn a lot of things which includes basics of HTML, CSS, Machine Learning, Game Development. Python, Android App development, Git and Github.

For past 1 month I was busy in taking courses from coursera regarding these things and right now I am making an android app "Medicator" this includes a medical dictionary for various disease plus a quick check up feature which can tell what kind of disease a person might be suffering from. Its still in development and may get completed by the end of Jan 2016. I'm not so much excited about this.

The reason is that  I've started making games ;)

I've learnt the basics of unity game engine and want to make my own games.
I've made a game 'Box Shooter 3D'. Its a shooter game which starts with a 15 seconds timer, you've to shoot green boxes for score, shooting white boxes increase the time and shooting yellow boxes reduces it.  Here is the link if you want to play. This won't open in Chrome as Google has decided not to support unity plugin.

I've taken help from a game development course in order to build the basic part of this game and then I've increased the difficulty level because it was too easy without it. I'm planning to build more levels of this game.

There is one more game under development 'Spin It !' Its an exciting third person game. I want to make this one a major game with lots of stages and upgrades. This one will take a lot of time because I''ve very limited time during college but I am planning to deploy this in google play store before April at least . Let's see if I can meet this deadline.

Stay tuned for more updates. A very Happy New Year in advance !

Bye Bye 2014 Welcome 2015

I'll say that the year 2014 was one of the most happening year of my life. I learnt a lot in this year and by the end of this year I am a much more learned person. I got deviated from my ultimate goal but now I am back with full support from my loved ones. In one word I would say that year 2014 was "fantastic".I had a lot of ups and downs and a lot of failures and they taught me how to move on.

I have some goals ready for 2015 I want to complete them as fast as possible.
At present I'll be focusing on Machine Learning because I think it solves the deep desire in me to do something of the type I used to imagine when I was a kid.I wanted to be a scientist and I can make it true if I study data science. Its difficult to follow that path but lets see how much motivated I remain throughout this quest.May be one day I'll be able to call myself a data scientist. 

Wishing everyone a very happy and prosperous new year !
