I haven't posted any updates in a long time, mostly because I haven't been working on any new games lately. I have some ideas I'm going to start working on soon I hope so perhaps more will be forthcoming. In the mean time check out my existing games, tell me what you think of them and hopefully enjoy!

I've removed all kyrutech apps from the Amazon Appstore. The more I read about their policies the more I disliked them. I already wasn't updating any of the apps up there but I got an e-mail today about incompatibility with the Kindle Fire and I thought it was time to take them all down.

All my apps are still and always will be available on the Android Market.

I've released Calcutron and Calcutron Lite version 1.1.0 onto the Android Market today. The big change is that in the full version I've added Random mode. In Random mode each equation you make will use a different function randomly, you will have to check the entry button to see what you are using. It mixes up the gameplay a bit and so far seems fun to me.

Since I've added a new mode to the full version I decided to open up Subtraction on the Lite version, giving you access to Addition and Subtraction for Timed and Clear gameplay.

Calcutron and Calcutron Lite are released on the Android Market. The lite versions contains only the timed addition and clear addition game modes, the full version contains addition, subtraction, multiplication and division game modes in both timed and clear game types. The lite version is free and the full version is $1.00.

I sent out a small update for Orbital Defense today, the satellite graphics have always been a little uneven and weird so I cleaned them up. I also replaced the appropriate images in the instruction screen.

In other news, I'm hoping my math game, Calctutron, can come out early next week. I have it out for testing with a few folks and I am hoping to hear good things.

Updates are out for all of my games this week, Matchmaker v1.1.2, Orbital Defense v1.1.4, Galaxy Destroyer v1.1.6, Wordel v1.0.2 and Speeder v.1.0.2.

The update really only does 2 things, first since Google has taken over AdMob they've released several updates for the ad libraries so all my demo and lite versions required updates to work as best as they can.

It has only been a day but I found some good things that needed to be updated after going over the game with some others.

I found out the in-game pause button was not obvious so I've labeled it, I also found out on some screens the rocks and wrenches weren't very noticeable as well so I've tweaked those graphics to hopefully show up better on the road.

I have Speeder and Speeder Lite out on the Android Market today. Speeder is a game where you use the phone's ability to detect it's tilt to control a car on the screen that you drive down the road avoiding obstacles and collecting powerups so you can score as many points as possible. The full version releases with 10 levels in each of 3 different difficulties as well as a continuous mode for each difficulty that creates a new random road for each time you play. The Lite version comes with 3 levels in each difficulty and just the Easy (6-Lane) continuous mode.

I should also mention that I have several of my games listed on the Amazon Appstore right now as well. Galaxy Destroyer, Orbital Defense and Wordel can all be found over there as well for the same price as you can find them on the Android Market. Here is the link to my apps or you can find it on the left sidebar under Additional Links.

So I'm still working on Speeder, right now I'm looking at getting it finished by the end of the month. Right now I'm mostly writing new levels for it and continuing testing, though I also need to finalize the continuous play mode. I have it out for testing with a friend of mine but I'm having trouble finding more testers right now, so that's unfortunate but I'll work it out.

I think it's a fun game right now, I hope you do too!
