Hello everyone! I would like to inform all players about this October 2024 update that contains a large improvements and a few new features.

Please note that this update is mostly planned for bug fixes, improvements, while adding few new features to the game. I would like you to read this post till the end to understand changes made in this update.

Lets begin!

Name Change

The first thing you're gonna notice is the game's name's changed. Yes, I would like to add other mini games, so that's why the game got renamed. In this update a new mini game is added for a total of 2. Of course, Endless Battle will be the first you see in the list. New mini game suggestions are always welcome and will be appreciated.

Android Launch Screen

Well. Since I'm actively working the game for Android for those who want to play, I added a new quick feature at the Android first launch screen. When you launch the game from Android, a sound will play, suggesting to turn off your screen reader and to use a keyboard for the fullest possible experience. This audio clip takes around 10 to 15 seconds, so if you don't want to listen, you can skip it by double tapping with 1 finger on the screen.

Gender Selection

Android devices can now choose gender before gameplay. This makes it possible to play player base voices base on the gender. When you click play game option, it will ask you to choose a gender. If you failed to choose your gender, the game will exit. This means that no madder what, you must choose a gender.

Settings Dialog

While PC versions use audio form controls to navigate settings dialog, Android had to use menu base system. This is because form controls do not currently work with Android devices. In the settings dialog, you can double tap with 2 fingers on the screen to change the state of a checkbox. To activate an option, for instance, "Save Options", you can double tap with 1 finger on the screen. Settings dialog is usually navigated by swipes since it is menu based.

More Android Gestures

There are 2 new gestures that get added into Endless Battle mini game which are also documented in the respective section:

Wo, near to 4 fingers, isn't it? Well, I'm simply trying to be able to play the game without a keyboard, but no that is not currently possible if you want to get its fullest experience and abilities! Also note that since the game got renamed, future updates will contain the same gestures but for different mini games.

Some mini games don't require a keyboard to play, and they will be documented clearly in each game's about section.

Screen Reading Problem

Hopefully, I fixed screen reading problem on some Android devices by using an alternative screen reading method. Thanks several players for report! Screen reader should now work as expected, if it doesn't please let me know!

Android Number Keypad

Added Android number field. Uh, of course, this is simulation. Once the field is popped out you can click on the numbers you want to type, and click done button to finish. This is the only way that Android devices can type, but it will be converted to form type as soon as it's available to be! This depends on the engine that is used to develop this game, so we can currently do nothing about it.

There is also an option called "Backspace" to delete the last number. You can click back button at any time to quit the input.

Lastly, you also have the ability to read the numbers you've written. Your written numbers will display at the top of the menu, which is the first option you see in the menu.

Please note that Android version still cannot type any letters except for the numbers at the moment. Still, I'll be working on form controls.

Conclusion

Well, that's it guys. Please note that you should check the change log to view the full changes made.

Lastly, don't forget to read the documentation for a list of shortcuts.

Happy gaming!
