ColorGuess Plus and iOS 6

It has been recently brought to my attention that ColorGuess Plus does not run on devices running iOS 6 or earlier. I wanted to take a second to touch on that.  

In the beginning this was by design, Matt and I had the oversight that everybody would be using iOS 7. What we didn't know was that older iPod Touches do not support iOS 7, but support iOS 6 and 6.1.  

Upon looking at the code to see if there was an easy fix to this, Matt found that the expanding cells used in many of the game screens do not seem to work properly on devices running iOS 6.

This is an error that sometime we would like to address, but probably won't come until we are ready to work on version 1.1 or whatever nomenclature we decide to go with. 

For now, if you can only use a decide with 6.0 or 6.1 please leave a comment here or get in touch with us on Twitter. If enough people are interested, we will consider putting this higher on the priority list! 

As always, thanks for your continued support.

ColorGuess Plus Compilation

Well, the big news we have been teasing the past few weeks is finally ready to be shared. The Developers of Symbiotic Studios are pleased to announce that a re-release of ColorGuess! is under development. 

This re-release is going to come packed with new features, and I'm going to share some of them with you now!

• A new scoring method is under development, I can tell you that the score will be capped, and the maximum score will be achievable. This means no more ever approaching infinity scoring algorithm!
  • ColorGuess! New Scoring Algorithm -- Part 1: Theory
  • ColorGuess! New Scoring Algorithm -- Part 2: Detailed Breakdown
• 2 new game modes are under development, I can tell you that they are called Blitz Mode and Challenge Mode. (More information to come.)
  • Challenge Mode: A Lesson Learned
  • A Little Bit About Blitz
• A complete aesthetic re-design for iOS 7 is coming. (More information to come.)

As opposed to doing this in an update, we have decided that in the name of science, that we want to stick this up as a sequel, with a price tag of $0.99. However, we are discussing a customer loyalty program for those of you out there that have kept ColorGuess! on their iOS devices, it means a lot to us that you have supported us in our first game.

So head on over and download ColorGuess! and give it a try. 

If there is anything, anything at all you feel is missing, or would like to see added to this re-release, please feel free to comment here, tweet at us @symbstudios or @hicksaustinj. We welcome your support and feedback, and would like to get everybody's wants into this game!

Along with all planned updates in game, ColorGuess! will officially be receiving a brand new dedicated webpage within out blog setting, so keep an eye out for that around December 13, if at all possible, it will come sooner with previews of the new game version. 

Thank you for your continued support, and check back often for more information regarding all of the planned additions. As of right now, our planned launch date is December 13, 2013. So mark your calendars!
