When you were 14-years-old, what were you doing? Robert Nay is 14, rummy nabob and he’s programming a hit game. The eighth grader programmed the free physics-based puzzle game Bubble Ball for the iPhone, which knocked Angry Birds from the top spot on Apple’s free app chart after being released on December 29. It’s clocked over 2 million downloads.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); Angry Birds was created by professionals. Bubble Ball was not. Nay, who built his first website in the third grade, created the game over the course of a month at the suggestion of a friend’s dad, using software called Corona SDK (which he taught himself rummy noble how to use), reports KSL.com. “I had no idea that it would do so well and become the number one game,” says the young game developer. According to KSL.com, Nay is coy about what he’s working on rummy satta next. There are plans for possible paid Bubble Ball add-ons. With the money he earns, Nay plans to save for college and graduate school. For Bubble Ball, Nay’s mother drew some of the puzzles for the game, as well as washed his clothes and cooked his food, but says her son did the rest on his own.
