Intresting but I could not play ...1 star from me !

These are your users with devices that do not support hardware acceleration , I know that accelerate surface works on all devices .. is performance that is affected...find a way to let all people play , it in your interest to have good ratings think about it!

Thanks for the advice, I thought non accelerated devices were rare, I will look into this issue.

are you serious? you give him 1 star because you got an old phone? come on...
look at the fact that he create a very nice app that its his own idea and think about it how many hours he spent on it..

you should rate the app, design, content,... and not the fact its not compatible with your phone.
i am sure asphalt 8 is also not compatible so you would give it also 1 star???

its immposible to create an app that will run smooth on all smartphones like you ask him to do.

if there would be a DISLIKE button i would definitely press it on your comment, sorry hooksy this is really uncool...

I think you misunderstood me ! and I understand your anger !
Please do know that I never voted negative a b4a member all my ratings to my colleques here were 5 star !

I invite other members to comment here ...do you know how many 1 star we receive because an good app is using internet connection? (exemple is all voice recognition and there are others)

It was not my personal opinion is what other should think ... the wold is big Ilan ..I guess you know it from your experience and do not judge me personal
and we comment here because we want to help each other

Users give very easy a 1 star rateing ...an the reasons are multiple ...sometimes stupid but we do need to avoid that as much as posible !
With my consideration a good app will suffer a lot ... a 1 star rating will drop your good rateing ..and put a negative label on your app ..do your agree???

Do you think everything is fair on this world ????????????
Did you asked yourself ..WTF ...he gave me 1 star ?

I do think we live the same reality ...but we something do not share the same opinion or do not speak the same language ..
so I am sorry that my message misinterpreted

It did sounded rod but it was not me speaking ...so please do not be upset!

Informatics have great lib ... and there is an option to detect if the device supports accelerated surface but yet is is not true that the app will not work at all ...the image quality and speed will be affected !

 

[hookshy]

Ilan I can not download asphalt 8 ...there is a big diference because I am not allowed to rate the app...that is the point !!

I have banned several Experia phones on which I detected a native crash on one of my app so ...users may not download and rate 1 star untill I find the bug on these devices ...
A good rateing of the app is the core of the bussiness.... What are you doing with an app rated 2,5 stars ??? ..is not the case here but i do care about our image

ok sorry hooksy, but you need to understand, even if you create the best app in the world there would be people that would give you 1 star, u dont need to think always how will my app wont get 1 star because this wont happen. there will be always asholes that will give you 1 star

someone give me 1 star because my app is not in his language(italien) its only in english...
so what should i do? he should take some english lessons...

some one wrote: nice app and gave me 1 star. what can you understand now from his comment? i ask him if its nice why one star?? but u know what i dont care now they can give what ever they want i wont create a slow app that run only with timer or i dont know what because some one has a smartphone that i brought with him from bangladesh fo 2.99$

create the best app you can think dont think of old phone and if you dont want them to rate your app the you can limit your app for specific phones only

this is my opinion...

It's just got my vote, 5 stars from me too. Very nice clean looking app. Played smoothly on my Galaxy S3.

What tags have you used in Google play (I'm guessing you can still add tags with the new layout?). I'd definitely make sure that "educational", and "teach" or "school" are in there as I think many parents are looking for ways to get young children to learn more from they're tablets/gadgets. I'll definitely be installing on my 5 year old's tablet and hope he enjoys it to. Maybe you could add a pre-school mode which starts off MUCH slower and maybe with no rotation to give a parent time to show a child and count with them how many sides?

Kind regards,

Hi, I like this game. It runs great on my Moto G. But I have one complaint, a circle has one side, not zero!!!! It drives me crazy because my brain believes 100% that a circle has one continuous side, it's impossible for any shape to have zero sides.

Thanks for the feedback !
Your educational idea is great will add it in a new version.
For the tags I did not found anywhere on the new google interface where to specify them.

And don't install it (yet) for your son, the app currently includes admob ads and last night I got a dating ad with a woman with an expressive attitude.

Haha, great question.
If you search google on 'how many sides has a circle' you'll find several answers.
In fact it depends of the unclear definition of side.
If a side can only be a straight line, then the answer is 0 or infinite.
If a side can be a curved line, then it is 1.
Mathematicly, side apply only to polygons and a circle is not a polygon, even with an infinite number of sides, such polygon will looks like a circle but won't be one.
Asking the number of sides of a circle is a non sense as side means polygon and circle is not a polygon.
I had to choose between the 3 wrong answers (0,1,infinite) and I picked up 0, but I agree 1 is also a possible answer.
