Thanks guys for your positive feedback. If you happen to have any ideas for future improvements, you're more than welcome to do so.

I will update the 1st post tomorrow or sometime later with some details about the upcoming version of the game. I already received some useful ideas which are worth to be incorporated into the game.

Hi,

Even my daughter liked your game..!!!

Just one question: I see my highscores based on date. Is there any way I can see based on "best time"? Or this feature you are planning in next release?

Re: [Announce] Puzzle Master - a jigsaw puzzle game
 

Yes, I am planning it in the next release. :)

Hi guys, I've updated the first post in this thread and added a list of planned features!

I like the loads of ideas I'm getting! Keep them coming! :)

Re: [Announce] Puzzle Master - a jigsaw puzzle game
 

Nice work!

Could you add full screen mode (ie. withouth the menu bar), that would allow more screen space for the puzzles.
Also maybe hide the Surrender button and just show a small time counter in one corner. Use swipe left/right or long press for menu.

Good idea. I added to the planned features section. :)
Thank you mrjola!

Works fine and very nice, but a liitle bit slow with enabled drop shadow effect @1GHz
Could you implement zoom out function for easier pieces handling? Just an idea :)

Re: [Announce] Puzzle Master - a jigsaw puzzle game
 

It wasn't slow for me. (I'm on default 600 MHz.)
What size was the puzzle for which it was slow?

(Also, please try with turning the accelerometer off. I found out that the accelerometer is what makes it quite slow sometimes.)
