New Puzzle Game: Speedoku

Hey everyone,

Neural Interactive just released our first game for Android called Speedoku.

Speedoku is a supercharged version of Sudoku that gets rid of all of the boring parts and gets right down to business. We've replaced the timers with a point system and the faster you go, the more momentum you build and the higher your multiplier goes. Get one wrong and you lose your entire multiplier and some points.

We've also added a ton of additions that will help keep your speed up including highlighting the number you're currently solving for, allowing you to just tap cell after cell without having to select a number each time and auto advancing to the next number once the one you're on is completely solved.

There's been something weird going on with the market where it won't let anyone's feedback show on the app for some reason. I'm not sure what's going on, but I'm really itching to hear what people think and what could be improved or changed for the next version.

I'm looking for feedback both from Sudoku veterans and newbs, so throw whatever you've got at me and I'll make sure the app gets better and better!

You can find more information and screenshots at http://www.speedoku.com

I'll give it a try when the market finishes throwing up.

Also, on your site you should probably add a link to the 'Available for the Android Market' banner. Right now it's just blank.

Thanks for the heads up!

I actually had added that before, but it somehow got reverted with a later update. Not sure if I should blame SVN or my mac!

Anyways, still not sure what's going on with the Android Market. It's really ridiculous cause it keeps deleting people's comments and only shows mine. I've had two friends write reviews and watched them post them only for them to disappear right away. It's super frustrating.
 
I love the game. I enjoy Sudoku but as of late find it kind of boring. The speed element with multipliers, high scores and leaderboards really spice up the old Sudoku gameplay.

I posted a comment on your app in the market and it saved it so that appears to be working.

There is one thing I would like to see in added to the game. Could you add an option to access the leaderboards from the main menu? As it is now I have to play a game to access it. I'm number 3 on the list with 416000.

Awesome! Yeah we can definitely add a way to see the leaderboard from the main screen. We're currently working on a rewrite that will hopefully cut the initial load time down drastically, after that I'll make sure that feature is on our development roadmap.

Thanks for the feedback!
