I made a game! I guess that’s not very exciting in itself, but it took me many months, from conception to publication, and it was a lot of hard work (way more than I expected). It was written in C++ using cocos2d-x.
Wordigami is a fun and original word game that challenges you to rearrange letter tiles into a grid that spells a common word along every row and column. Someone described it to me as being like a word game that you play like Game of Fifteen.
Any feedback appreciated. Thanks for checking it out!
Edit: I didn't post this to just promote my app. I noticed that there's no android market link on the blog post and thought some people might like to try out a backbone.js app without having to build it. I know it's not the same, but I do think it shows how responsive an html5 mobile app can be.
I'd like to test your app (just to see if it's more responsive than, for example, the linkedin app) but can you explain why it requires permission to access the phone status/identity? thanks!
I just watched this video (http://gigaom.com/2011/09/27/facebook-mobilize-2011/) where Facebook's head of mobile product talks (a tiny bit) about using HTML5 in their mobile products instead of all native development to keep pace with launches on the Facebook desktop site.
It took m a few seconds to realize what is wrong with "HTML5 fist of rage" logo in the article. The fist has 6 fingers. To be fair the original HTML5 logo isn't that much better...
not magic, TechCrunch and other blogs have been talking about Project Spartan for months. The screen shots were leaked yesterday, which is news worthy...unlike our comments.
Can anybody clarify the last line of the blog article [1]? The author makes it sound like storing data using $.data() is an async operation. The API docs make no mention of this. In some quick tests using Chrome, I was always able to immediately retrieve the value that was stored.
I'm actually planning on using this method, so I'd really like to know.
[1] "Furthermore, storing data takes a certain amount of time, so you might get a null exception if you are planning on retrieving it right after storage. There are currently no plans to add a callback to the jQuery data that I’m aware of."
Edit: $.data() seems to be async, but $(el).data() is not. At least that's what I found. Maybe that explains the difference in speeds.
That page has the most elaborate and geeky captcha I've ever seen. It's also not very practical considering that something like 7 percent of men have some degree of color blindness. I can barely tell the difference between 3 and 5 on that scale.
