New feedback on use of help

15/11/2021

0 Comments

 
Version 1.19 has gone live in the App Store today. The main change is the addition of feedback to make it more transparent that the score is impacted when help is used.
​
The changes in detail:
  • If the help is used for solving a puzzle, feedback is shown to indicate the impact of the help on the time taken.
  • The new feedback can be turned off in the settings, if players find it annoying (new settings option).
  • Some changes to the way the use of help is applied to the score. The more time that a player spends studying a puzzle, the lower the cost of the help will be on the score.
  • Points will always be scored for completing a puzzle, even if the help is used extensively.
  • An options menu is now included on the score page that is shown after completing a puzzle in the Challenge Trail and Puzzle Sets. This allows the player to view the leaderboard and edit the settings from this page.
  • More improvements to the help explanations.
