Finally, it’s done. I’ve uploaded a new release of Puzzle Blox and Puzzle Blox Arcade! to all common market places like Google™ Android Market, SlideMe.org, AndAppStore.com and others. As always you can also download it directly from the Puzzle Blox web page.

The most significant change is a significant speed boost which should make the game a lot smoother on lower-end Android phones.

Enjoy the new release!

Sorry for the lack of updates in the last days. I’m currently working on major speed improvements for Puzzle Blox and Puzzle Blox Arcade! The last comments in Android Market pointed out several issues people have. I’m about to fix those right at the moment… Expect an update later this week.

So please excuse that I’m a bit short-spoken today

Happy new year! During the holidays I got a few minutes to work on an update for Puzzle Blox and Puzzle Blox Arcade! which is now available. I made some important bug fixes for devices with low memory resources, slightly reduced the file size of Puzzle Blox Arcade! and (hopefully) implemented a fix for the new Acer Liquid devices. The detailed list of changes is as follows:

• Improved memory requirements for devices running Android 1.6 and later
• Improved accelerometer handling for better compatibility
• Reworked main menu animations
• Fixed string in German localization
• Built upon Android SDK 2.01. Puzzle Blox has successfully been tested on devices running Android 1.5, 1.6, 2.0, 2.0.1 and 2.1

As usual you can grab Puzzle Blox and Puzzle Blox Arcade! from Google™ Android Market, SlideMe.org, AndAppStore.com or directly from the download page.

Enjoy the update,
André

Tonight I have published a small new release of both Puzzle Blox and Puzzle Blox Arcade! Not much has changed for most of you, just some small issues fixed and slightly reduced resource needs; nothing serious. But for our Chinese friends Puzzle Blox features both Simplified and Traditional Chinese now. Thanks for the translations by HiAPK.com!

As usual you can grab Puzzle Blox and Puzzle Blox Arcade! from Google™ Android Market, SlideMe.org, AndAppStore.com or directly from the download page.

Merry Christmas!

Sorry, but I had to re-enable the comment captcha (the “Are you human or a machine?” test) again due to massive spam coming in the last days. I really wonder if it is such profitable to post dozens of Russian spam comments every day again and again… If you have your own Wordpress blog I really suggest you try out both the Akismet and the SI Captcha plug-in. The first one filters out nearly major parts of comment spam on your web site fully automatically. Latter one ensures that spam bots won’t be able to post at all in the first place.

If you have any trouble with the new captcha don’t hesitate to contact me

As usual you can grab Puzzle Blox and Puzzle Blox Arcade! from Google™ Android Market, SlideMe.org, AndAppStore.com or directly from the download page.
