Ace Plays! v1.0.2

Ace Plays! v1.0.2 fixes tapping problems on phones and tablets.

What's fixed

• Adventure Map: the world card no longer covers other worlds on small screens. Every world stays visible and tappable, and the card has ‹ › arrows to switch worlds.
• Buttons that couldn't be tapped: the screen-transition bubbles no longer swallow taps (e.g. "Let's go!"), and the "Add to Home Screen" tip now stays on the title screen only.
• Small-screen tidy-ups: Settings controls are no longer hidden under the Done button, long hints and locked-world notes aren't cut off, results stay scrolled to the top, and the new-blaster popup no longer covers the aiming circle.
• Checked automatically on 15 phone screen sizes in iPhone Chrome, Android Chrome and the Facebook app browser: every button and world on every screen is tappable.

Ace Plays! v1.0.1

Ace Plays! v1.0.1 makes the game much nicer to play on phones and tablets.

What's new

• Shoot and aim at the same time: hold the bubble button and slide your thumb to aim. Push past the edge to keep turning.
• Tap 1-4 to switch blasters on touch screens.
• Fits your screen even with the browser's address bar showing (iPhone and Android).
• Tidier on-screen layout on small screens, so nothing overlaps and the Let's go! button is always visible.
• Clearer swap button, and a one-time tip on iPhone for full-screen play via Add to Home Screen.

These builds aren't code-signed yet, so your computer may ask before opening them:

Testing status

The game was played through end-to-end in a browser and the Apple Silicon macOS app was launched and tested. The Windows and Linux packages were built and their contents checked, but haven't been run on real Windows/Linux machines yet — reports welcome!
