#### Doda The Exploda
Doda The Exploda is a mobile open-source gaming application for android devices. The game is simple and easy to understand and play. The game has different difficulty level ranging from baby to adult timed. Using the application, I noticed some features can be added to the applcation. The following features can be added to the application:

* High Score
* Add Pause, Play/Continue and Save game feature


#### Proposal
* High Score:  This feature stores the score of users according to their best score. The high score feature keeps track of the best scores of users. For instance, when a user plays a game and gets score the user should be able to know if that is their highest score or not. The high score feature can store scores of about 5 to 10 best scores from top (best) to down (worst). When user plays a game the application should automatically evaluate the score of the user and place it in the high score according to ranks.

* Add Pause, Play/Continue and Save game feature: This feature allows users to pause and start games according to users preference. This feature is very important. For instance, when a user is making progress on a level especially the timed level and a the user needs to do something urgently, this is where the pause feature comes into effect. The user can easily pause and continue their games when they are much more convenient.

#### Benefits
The importance of these features cannot be overemphasized. The inclusion of these feature will make the application more desirable for users. 

The high score feature will help users keep track of their score history and they will be able to evaluate their performance in the different levels of the game. The feature will motivate users to try and beat and pass their past score and this will increase game-play progress.

The Pause, Play/Continue and Save game feature helps users to manage their game progress and also reduce lose of game progress. For instance, if a user needs to do something urgently, with the present set-up the user will have to end the game and restart. The pause feature will help solve this problem.

These feature will make the application more standard and easy to user. The application will appeal to more users and prospective user with the inclusion of these features.
