Show HN: Math Machine – a game based on the concept of a stack machine
play.google.comFYI - I wasn't able to find your app on my nexus when searching for "math machine". I found it only when looked for "woodencloset".
As for the app - great idea and nice implementation, but for someone who understands what to do right from the beginning, "hints"-popups are really annoying. Maybe add a button "I know what I'm doing" or something like that to allow to skip them?
That's a good idea. I'll think where I can add this without having people press it by mistake and getting lost. About the search, that's an unfortunate part of the play store discovery problem. They prioritize ratings/downloads over keywords...
Sweet! Reminds me of https://medium.com/@mathbreakers/turing-trains-5e203076b891 and http://pleasingfungus.com/Manufactoria/ :-]
Are you thinking of making more math-related games?
Thanks. I'm actually working on a programming game, light-bot style. I don't have any specific math idea right now, but I'd love to make another one.
I worked on this game alone for about a month. As a programmer by trade, the design, art and sound effects took most of my time :)
- Programmed in Java, using libgdx as the engine
- Sound effects made with sfxr
- Art made with Gimp and Inkscape
