CrossWord3D — Split Screen

What's New (version 0.7.8930-Beta)

  • Split screen compatibility:
    While not always the best fit to the screen or the easiest to play, at least now split screen is possible so you can try to do other things while playing this game.
  • Platform updates and security patches:
    These are from Unity and Google AdMob as well as any other Google services.

Road Map

These are the things I hope to build into the app someday. These may or may not happen but they are what I am currently working on behind the scenes.
  • Play Packs:
    Idea: Groups of verses ("Play Packs") instead of randomly selected verses.
    Status: Haven't started.
  • Custom Play Packs:
    Idea: User generated puzzles saved into play packs.
    Status: Built a puzzle generator. Needs a user interface and is waiting on main menu with play packs to be completed first.
  • Power-ups:
    Idea: Currently only have hints showing up but I want to add more types of these. Such as solving the first letter of the word, or solving all of one letter across the whole puzzle.  
    Status: Haven't started.
  • Sounds:
    Idea: Default to off but allow to be toggled on
    Status: Haven't started.
  • Better Graphics/Animation:
    Idea: After core functionality is built in I hope to start working on the graphics, animation, and general "gamification" of the app.
    Status: Added in some playful animations but they caused lots of issues and had to remove them. Need to start over with these.
  • Puzzle Cube Interactions:
    Idea: I'd like to do some work on the 3D puzzle made of cubes so that it is easier to see what is going on and easier to control.
    Status: Haven't started yet.
