Hi MikeMax

Thanks for playing my game

If you are in office (inside the game), you can see the "X" button. This button allows to return to the menu.
If you start an experiment... you can't exit if you don't finish that experiment... I thought if the gamer can exit in that moment, he would reset the level and the costs would be 0... but this will be solved in the next version

EDIT: Also, in the new version, the icons will be bigger (for normal screens)

I had the problem like mike that it whas a bit hard to understand where to exit the app.
And when i managed so whas it running in the background an hogged my tab ?

I played the tutorial until it seamed to hang it self and didt respond to input?

But this could be agk not liking android sandwich.

But overall impression is good but you have to make some things easier to understand like where to exit or go back to menue.

Some small work and its all good

Thanks Cliff for playing!!

What's the meaning "hogged"? (I have not found in wordreference... and i don't understand a lot of words)... it's similar to shut down... my app shut down your tablet??

This is important... I have tested it in sandwich version and it works fine... What happened before the app didn't respond?

Thanks cliff

It hogged the performance wich means the tab got slow until i force closed.

I whas in the tutorial and started placing out the mirrors the electrons bounce on.
When i whas supposed to place out the second one so didt the app respond anymore ?

Ok. It's extrange... the tab shouldn't get slow...

I suppose that you wanted to say the detector and yes I have found a little problem... (sometimes, the app is blocked) it's corrected!

Thanks cliff.

I belive its the problem with it being hard to detect where to go back or exit the app
If you press home so does the app simply run at full speed in the background.

Only make it clearer how to go back to menue or exit the app and where the user should do it

Maybe make the app exit completely if pressing the home button?

Yes, I have updated the apk with the new option (exit to the main menu) and it's explained in the tutorial But it's not possible to exit in the tutorial (they are only 2 levels)... I have problems with the variables of the tutorial (and they are a lot) if you return to the menu.

I have corrected some bugs and I have increased the resolution of the buttons. (for mobile)

Thank you very much for your comments.

P.S. I don't know how to set the actions of the home button of Android. Is possible to set it with an command in AppGameKit?

Sadly, there isn't any way to detect the home button. And we have no control over what happens.

You can tell when you return from going to the background.

The GetResumed() command returns 1 when the app has been returned to the foreground.

I check it at the top of the main processing loop and put my game into paused mode if it was actively playing when sent to the background.
