“Roll it!” keeps on rollin’ …

January 19th, 2010

I just wanted to post a little update on how the game is doing. It’s is very popular and since December 2nd, over 1100 copies have been sold. There is also a new update coming out in the next days – it’s already been submitted to Apple. It contains localisation for the Czech and Swedish language and addresses a bug in the random generator and the auto-resume function.

“Roll it!” – The first week

December 9th, 2009

Since “Roll it!” made its way into the AppStore last week, the number of daily downloads keeps increasing. It’s great to see how it gains popularity. According to appfigures.com, it’s already Top 50 (44) in the category Games/Dice in the US store. The feedback is amazing and I’m really happy the app finds such an echo. In the meantime, version 1.0.1 got released, fixing a problem with the vibrate setting and correcting a word in the german localisation.

Exercise 8 – Filters

November 15th, 2008

texture-cube.pngMost people are familiar with the concept of filters, in fact unconsciously used them many times. Everytime you sharpen an image or apply a gaussian blur, every single pixel gets processed by a certain mathematical rule.
