New Beta
mju...@gmail.com
Got the new beta installed ... great! I like the settings all on one
page so I don't have to cycle through them so much. I wasn't thrilled
to see a time bonus but this is mostly because I often play "a little
at a time" ... between phone calls, etc. but I understand why others
would like that ... what do you think about making it an option?
I'm enjoying playing ... and am going on a road trip starting tomorrow
so will be playing more and will have more comments when I get back :)

Thanks!
The time bonus being optional is certainly possible. However all it
would do is remove the bonus (make the bonus be 0/disable). So
effectively it would be the same as playing for more than 3 minutes.
I'm not opposed to it but since it wouldn't really *change* anything,
I'm hesitant to put development efforts there.
However, if more people chime in and want it gone entirely, we can
certainly look at it!
Thanks for your help!

Way less clicks and screens to go through.
Question though. Why have "game settings" AND "play" on the same
screen, if they do the EXACT same thing?
It's really redundant and not necessary and just taking up space.
If you click on game settings, you are forced into a game. And it
takes you to the "game settings" page. and hitting the "play" button
takes you to the "game settings" page. So I don't understand that.

Me too. :)

Because you can turn show settings off at the bottom of the settings
page. Then when you push play, settings don't come up. This is for
people who always play the same way.
How can we make that clearer?

by both clicking the "play" and the "game settings" button.
I understand why we have the "games settings" page. But not why there
are two buttons on the home screen that do the same thing.

ONce you turn off the game settings button, it no longer comes up when
you push play on the main screen.
When you first start playing konstroo we wanted people to see the
settings. But once you have played it a lot, we wanted people to be
able to push play and go right to the game without changing settings.
Turning the show settings switch off does this. Then the only way back
to settings is through the game settings button on the main screen.
If it's not working that way for you, then there may be a navigation
bug.
Another option would be to not show the game settings before a game at
all. I personally play on different settings almost every time I turn
the game on. So this would annoy me. But it's certainly an option.
Is that clearer? It seems like there is either a bug or
miscommunication going on.

It's the only way back to the games settings page if I turn of show
settings. Gotcha.
No it works fine, no navigation issues.

Yep. Ok. :) Just making sure I didn't do anything totally inane in the
page flow. :)

Remember konstroo?? Still playing?
We've been working hard on developing a new app with graphing on the
iphone. We hope to integrate these graphing technologies into some of
our earlier apps in addition to a line of future apps.
Would anyone be willing to quickly beta test what we hope is the final
version of our latest app? Not as fun as konstroo...
It interactively graphs financial data over time. We would love to
hear your thoughts.
We're in the final stretch. A quick review within the next day
would be most helpful! Shoot me an email directly if you're
interested and I'll send you the beta.
Many thanks
