Math Games: Professor Pi’s Math Mayhem Beta 2.0

Please check out beta 2.0!

I have uploaded version Beta 2.0 of Math Mayhem to our math games section.  Please let me know what you like about it/don’t like about it if you try it out.  Also, please report any bugs if you find them.

I have introduced some power ups in this version, and a “How to Play” section (yea – instructions are a good thing).  Also, I added two more levels for a total of three.  I don’t want to add too many levels in case there are bugs to hunt down.  If all goes well with this release, I will work on the first full-scale roll-out (i.e., I’ll add a bunch of levels).

Anyway, please give it a try, and I hope you like it!

Math Games: Professor Pi’s Math Mayhem

Professor Pi's Math Mayhem

I have reached the point where the current game project is ready for beta release.  What this means is that I am asking users to download it and test it on their systems.  I have tested it already on a number of computers, and I have not noticed any bugs, but this does not mean that this math game is bug-free.  So if you do download it, please let me know of any strangeness by adding a post on this page, along with information on your operating system.

Also, I would like to get a feel on what you thing of the game play; is it too easy or too hard?  Is it interesting to play or boring?  I will be adding more interesting features to it in the near future, but for now I really need to test it in this form.  Although designed for use by school children, adults may find this fun to play too.

This beta release is very simple – only one board of play just to test it out before I make it more complex and add new boards.  The object of the game is very simple – eliminate 25 bricks equal to 10.  Here is a screenshot:

I plan on adding power-ups eventually, along with additional boards; you will see this in the next beta release.  For now, I’ll do some design improvements while I await feedback from this release.

If you want to know when the next beta version is released, please check back periodically, or, if you have a Facebook account, you can join our Facebook Page (Click here or look to the right panel for the link).

UPDATE: Version Beta 2.0 has been released. Please read the post here.

Math game update:

I have almost completed the basic game engine; it should be finished very soon, and I hope to get a beta version of the game out in a week or so.  The thing that is holding me up (besides our three boys) is the fact that my computer is behaving badly, and I fear for it’s life!  I have a new computer, but I have to transfer all files, register them, etc.

Also, I’ll add some bells and whistles to the first version, and I’ll wait for suggestions from users before I add anything too fancy.  I’m going to keep the game description under wraps until the release – so please check back in a few days for updates, of join our facebook page – the link is right there on the right  :)

Just a quick note to let you know what is going on with the math games software.  I have a better idea of what I want the first game to be like, and I have been playing some games on Facebook so that I can get some ideas on how to enhance it.  The downside to my game playing is that I truly believe that I have become addicted to some of the games there.  Needless to say, I have not done much in game programming for the last week or so!

Anyways, I’ll be plugging away at some math game programming this week, assuming that I can get this monkey off my back.  Wish me luck – I’ll need it!
