Sadly unplayable for my playstyle cause it just spins when rotating the screen. Might be good if you're sitting at a bus stop but can't play while in bed.
this game is awfull I really dont see any appeal
i'd love to play this game on my phone, but there's no way to mute the annoying music and sound
it's so hard to understand this game because it doesnt have a guide system, even if they claim they do, they actually dont tell you what to do in game and you have to mess around with the controls until you actually do it correctly, and I only made it to year 4 before I quit. if they add a proper guiding system and properly relay what does exactly what, then I'll come back.
can't even get out of the mailroom that's the first obstacle you can't do anything not sure how this works no instructions as such very strange
not being able to turn off automatic rotation made me unable to play laying down.
really tedious game. ugly graphical design. no thanks.
Just not fun
Not working on pixel 7a, just have a black screen and then it exits
Does not run on Pixel 7. Instantly closes when trying to open it
Crashes, won't start. Will change rating once fixed.
Crashes on startup on Pixel 9
Game crashes on startup. Tried several different things.
Unplayable. Crashes immediately upon opening the app.
No options for sound or sfx control within the application.
Won't start on pixel 8
App closes on startup
Crashes instantly when opened (Pixel 8 Pro)
Crashes upon opening
Game crashes on start on Google Pixel 7 Pro
The game crashes on launch on Pixel 8 with Android 14. No way to play at all.
Love this game. But it just crashes upon opening on Android 14
At level 9 there is no solution with the commands available. My application sometimes takes the letters as "0" sometimes as "not 0". As there is no sulotion, I can not play the higher levels. It's a shame because itherwise it would be a lovely game. I am considering asking for a refund and leave this misery.
The screen randomly fluctuates between landscape and portrait orientation. It is unplayable.
The orientation change is too sensitive. It keeps wanting to go to portrait view UPSIDE DOWN. And every little change in the position of the phone will change the orientation to the one I didn't one. This is especially annoying when editing
The screen orientation won't stop changing. Actually made me nauseous.
I can't install the purchased game.
would be great if it were remotely playable with the screen constantly shifting between landscape and portrait with no setting dropdown to be seen anwaywhere in the entirety of the user interface.
The art is cute but there's zero instructions/ examples on what to actually do so it got old real fast. Glad I didn't pay for this game. lol
Game looks cool but not having the option to lock rotation makes it unplayable for me. Phone can't be held at some angles otherwise it will rapidly switch between portrait and landscape mode.
I'm sure it's fun but there's no way to turn off or adjust audio levels and it's much louder than my phone's set to. Autorotate is also way too sensitive. I'd expect such basic options to be included.
was good until it wasn't. No hints or tips towards solutions even when it says it will show whats wrong.
difficult and simplistic
can't turn off sound, so you can't play while listening to anything. this is pretty basic expectations.
It used to work, but now it crashes immediately. Reinstalling does not fix the issue. It is a really fun game (back when it worked).
Game is okay but having no way to mute it is simply not on for a mobile game in 2023!!
This would be a great game if not for the screen rotation "feature" that makes it nearly unplayable for me. Not even disabling screen rotation on the OS stops it. For a game that ostensibly teaches fundamentals of programming, it is remarkably poorly programmed...
I enjoy this game but it's genuinely infuriating at times with it's half baked faux vertical screen orientation support, you can't change/mute the volume (who listens to music?), and how you can't control the inputs for testing. I'm testing my alphabetizer code for issues when outputting the first word, but I've gone some 30 attempts without running into that scenario. Let me use one of predefined inputs or continue using a previous input set and I'll instantly increase my rating.
