Arithmatic Update 2/23/2015

Hey everyone. Just posting some news about some upcoming updates for Arithmatic.

I just finished implementing Google Play leaderboards for the game as well as having a local high score system for people who wish to stay offline. The next thing that I need to do is implement some achievements that I made for the game, which may take a little bit longer.

Another thing that I plan to address is some of the balancing issues with Survival Mode. I noticed that most of the generated target numbers vary in difficulty as the player increases their level. Also, I tend to notice that the difficulty curve for leveling up gets extremely high when the user gets past level 5. These issues will be addressed when the next update arrives.

As my spring break period continues to get closer, my workload has been going down to the point where I can start working on Arithmatic more frequently. As an estimate as to when this update release, I would say that it should arrive sometime within the next week or two.

If you have any suggestions as to improve the game or if you have found any bugs or glitches that I'm not aware of, feel free to let me know,

Arithmatic is Available Now on Google Play!

So after 18 months of working on this game I have finally released it on to Google Play. You can download it here. 

I would like to thank you all for being patient for this game to release and to thank everyone who has gotten involved with the development of the game. I would like to thank William Goswick for sticking with the project from the beginning. I would like to thank Michael Moy (known as GlidedGuy online) for helping out with the majority of the art for the game. I would like to thank the people at LibGDX for building the engine that I used for my first game. I hope all of you enjoy the game!

However, although the game is currently released, there are still many features that I have yet to implement in the game, which will happen over the course of the next few months. These updates include:

-Sound and Music
-Achievements
-Leaderboards

Thank you all for being patient. If you find any bugs or issues with the game, feel free to let us know. We will try to get them fixed as soon as possible.
