Pair Up Launched!

It was officially launched midnight Mar 25th, 2009. Hooray!

Within one minute of the launch there was comment left, a rather encouraging one! The next morning I woke up, it was already downloaded 100+ times with an average rating of 60% — not bad!

Most of the complains are about small tile size: not fat-finger-Americans friendly . I took immediate action of increasing the image tile size from 40×40 to 45×45, and the update was released before noon of Mar 26th. As of now (3pm), the number of downloads is more than 300. Someone left a comment saying looking forward to more updates — Great! I DO have a list of fun features to implement.

But now, most importantly, a detailed help page is very much needed. I read one comment saying that the time progress bar hinders — actually that was intended: if you had tiles eliminated, the time stopped for one second. Well, I guess this is not a very intuitive feature: I’ll think about changing that behavior in next release.
