Changelog

2010/11/03

  • Added Story Mode Map, Along With unlockable system for The Level, and a pile of stuff behind the scenes You Will not record
  • Still Need to place Before the mission cut scenes

2nd version

  • Addition of Stylus controls during game, stylus still can't control the menu's but during the game you can shift row/columns by using short flicks in the direction you want to move a line.
  • Added Game Mode B, start with 20 Seconds, and each line matched gives you 4 bonus seconds - current score * 2 frames, but maintaining a minimum of 1 Second bonus for a matched line.
  • Added Statistical Storage, for games played, rows matched, high scores per game mode, etc.
  • Added unlockable system for unlocking stuff like different game modes, music, blocks, body parts, etc. none of the current requirements are going to be kept, I just made them arbitrary for now just to test the coding, the 2 most difficult things to unlock are make 150 lines total to unlock Song B, and play at least 5 games to unlock the Goatee, if you do these 2 things you've probably managed to unlock everything else along the way.
