Sheldon rules guide

Hi again folks, this is a small guide that explains you how you play the "Sheldon" rules:

rock wins over scissors and lizard,
paper wins over rock and spock,
scissors wins over paper and lizard,
lizard wins over paper and spock,
spock wins over rock and scissors...

Sooner or later you'll find these rules explained inside the game too,
meanwhile... ciaoooooooooo

p.s. for the folks that want an alternative funnier explanation of these rules, here you are ;)

Android version available now!

As happily announced yesterday, or as many of you may notice... quite earlier today, I just uploaded the Android version of TheSheldonChallenge. For those who already tried the PC version, it will look very familiar, in any case I'll list here the features

Very important: you need Android 2.2 or higher in your cellphone in order for it to work!

LINK: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7217397/TSCAndroid1_2.apk

FEATURES of v1.2:
- Single-player against AI games
- Translations in Albanian, Dutch, English, French, Italian, German, Persian, Portuguese and Spanish
- Score to win customizable
- Two rules available: CLASSIC (rock, paper, scissors) or SHELDON (rps, lizard, spock)
- Options are persistent (you'll find back the options you were using each time you start the game)
- Option of selecting a random move
- Option of surrendering during a game
- Option of playing a rematch instead of directly going back to the menu

You'll find notes about how to install and play the game and about the requirements on the right panel

Really hope you will enjoy my game.
Please write me any comments or problems here or at my address thesheldonchallenge@gmail.com.

Enjoooooooooooy!!
Ciaoooooooooooo

Version 1.2 Available

Hey everybody,

Why don't you get some Christmas quality surprise for you and your friends with the release the version 1.2 of TheSheldonChallenge!

It is the equivalent version of the Android version (which you can find at this link: http://sheldonchallenge.blogspot.com/2011/12/android-version-available-now.html)

I've also updated the instructions to run the game for each of the most common operating systems:
- for Win users: extract everything and run the "tsc.bat" file.
- for Unix and Mac users: extract everything and run the "tsc.sh" file.

Easy right?? Have a nice holiday everyone!!
Even though I may be back soon enough ;)
Ciaooooooooooooooo

Version 1.2 and Android Version announced

Good news everybody!!!!

In great secret I've been preparing the Android implementation of my game and I'm finally happy, no excited, to announce its release for tomorrow December 14th at 11:59pm (more or less :P)  Sicilian time (which for you curious guys is still the same as the Italian one).

Since it came with a lot of code modifications and some minor bug fixes I'm happy to announce the release of the plain version for PC no later than December 18th, just to give me some time to manage other things too, like my masters thesis... you know ;)

For both of them I'll announce the release and put the links in the upper right section of the blog, which will also go under a little restyling to let everything fit well!

I can't wait for you to test it and tell me what you think :)
New languages are welcome too!!

See you soon!!!
Ciaooooooooooooooooooo
