Helping testers, cleaning screens
By 10:50 a.m. I had worked with some closed testers, sending them screenshots of their apps, and worked on Polymatrix to clean up the look and feel of the home screen and some of the usability. Nothing major, just screens I had to fix up.
Mini games and a lottery bowl
I was restless at home, so I made lots of changes to Polymatrix. I added four mini games, plus one extra game for the whirlpool. I want to make a lottery bowl: instead of the whirlpool, the balls rest at the bottom of the bowl, circulate for fifteen seconds, then one of the floes comes out, and that’s the prize you win.
A better game
Later I played a level to see whether it played better.
“It’s a much better game now with all those bugs ironed out.”
Game Rules Log: August 27, 2026
- New: four mini games plus a whirlpool bonus game
- Idea: a lottery bowl where floes circulate for fifteen seconds before one pops out as the prize
