Leave your opinions and suggestions for improving the game.
At the moment the plan for the game looks like this:
- Alternative color scheme for Modern mode;
- VS mode against other player;
- survival time mode;
- play without the undo button on Classic mode;
- more achivements;
- more music;
- steam trading cards;
What you want to see in this game?

Here's what I would love to see to improve.

• viewport options (smaller resolutions please)
  
• option to remove randomness from the game
  
• more statistics to encourage improvement: average move speed (can divide total time spent by # of moves when game is finished)
  
• more board views (Modern looks nice, but i'm disappointed that it can't be controlled by arrow keys, and some block tiers in Modern are hard to tell apart from each other)

just a lot of options and supportive features. A story mode(?) that teaches strategies or adds challenges would be impressive, but it'd need a lot of work..

Thank you for your feedback. Controls in modern mode fixed, added resolution options

make undoing a move actually subtract the score from the move that was done, kinda seems like the testing phase was skipped there.

move the restart button or at least have it say "are you sure you want to restart the game" for the second time I've hit it accidentally, as it's so close to the board and the undo button doesn't undo your mistake. I was so close to getting the 100k achievement when I hit it the second time.

Copied and pasted from my review...

1. The "Modern" mode is at an odd angle and lacks actual numbers to see your progess easily. You're going off visual 3-D bars that have similar colors at the higher numbers. Honestly, this mode hurt the hell out of my eyes after a while. Either add some numbers or change the colors drastically between numbers.

2. Add a dark theme to the classic 4x4 and 8x8 modes.

3. The screenshot button with Steam (F12) does not appear to work with this game.

4. Add an option to play without the undo button on Classic mode and have seperate leaderboards for those modes. The undo button is like playing the game on easy mode. ;)

5. Allow us to use the directional pad on a controller. I'm currently using the arrow keys on a keyboard because the analog stick is too easy to accidently make a mistake.

6. Trading cards with badges would be nice. Badges could be numbers going up to 2048. 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, and then 2048 as the foil badge maybe? Or start with 128 and hit 2048 on fifth badge with foil being a 2048 with cool difference.

7. $1.99 isn't much to ask but .99 would be better. You can play this game MANY places for free so need to add more features and options if you're going to ask for $1.99. If you can do a lot of the requests that might be asked, I'd glady say $1.99 is more than fair.


Thanks.

Thanks.

Thanks for your feedback. Update will be released soon. Trading cards are ready but to add them we need approval from the Valve, so cards will be added later.

Also, not sure if this is a bug but "Modern" mode seems to end when you hit 4096? It pops up with my score (which is no reflected on the leaderboard).

A few more suggestions.

1. An X-Tile mode? Puts a tile on the board that blocks your progress.

2. VS mode against other players (not sure if this is feasible).

3. Survival time mode. Countdown timer that you occasionally get more time when you hit milestones.



The above are all suggestions that exist in other versions of the game.

Great ideas!

- Aspect ratio of resolution is weird (why 1024 x 1024?) I don't have a square monitor.
Most monitors are widescreen 16:9 or at least 4:3.
- Some gamemodes let the game crash Are they even implemented yet?
- Pls delete the 100M achievement. Noone will ever get it legit.
Even 10M is a grindfest for at least 30 hours

Hi !

I'd like to suggest one small improvement : dynamic font size !
As you can see on that screenshot, it's starting to get messy at some point :/

The screen resolution indicates the size of the window (when you play in windowed mode). 1024 x 1024 because with this resolution in windowed mode there is nothing superfluous (white bars at the edges of the screen) This setting does not affect the image quality when full screen mode is on.
In which modes does game crash? Do you get an error message? What OS are you using? Please describe the situation in more detail.
Achievements changed.

So gamemodes all work now. Before one led you into somekind of console.
The new timemmode are supereasy when you already shuffled together for 11hours on 8x8
On the screen resoluion I can only say I have 1920x1080. the 1024 height fits into this.
