Changelog

Dates are based on GMT.

v1.1.0 [2011-09-23]

This version changed from $1 to FREE in the Android Market!

  • Added option in Controls to scale on-screen buttons using a slider ranging 0.5x to 2.5x with increments of 0.1
  • Added option in Controls to change on-screen button visibility (opacity) using a slider ranging 0-100% with 1% increments
  • Added gameplay modification: Rotation
  • Added in-app billing and unlock keys to unlock gameplay modifications
    • In-app billing is a bit on the experimental side. From the testing I was able to do (Google severely limits the ability for developers to test with real purchases), it should work fine. If you have any problems with it, please let me know!
    • Unlock keys are only intended for those who have purchased previous versions and for my friends. If you have already paid for Lander, please feel free to use the built-in option to request a key via email.
  • Fixed D-Pad not working correctly when assigning key
  • Fixed behavior of Default (classic options) so the changes are visible immediately without automatically restarting the activity

v1.0.1 [2011-04-27]

  • Added improvement: Color end game images (they were included with original source but not used in game)
  • Changed default setting for improvements from Classic to Improved
  • Added presets for improvements: Classic and Improved
  • Changed some text for improvements options
  • Added New and Restart buttons to end game dialog [suggested by Sum_Wun]
  • Touching anywhere on screen starts game (like original game)
  • Fixed version name (wasn't supposed to include "v" prefix, mostly noticeable in Android Market or Application info)

v1.0.0 [2011-04-13]

  • Initial release to the Android Market!
