[Tux4kids-discuss] [GSoC] Tux Racing UI feedback

[Kento Locatelli]

Hi everyone!

The Tux Racing cross-platform/mobile game project is about 3/4 done, and 
I would like your assistance in testing what is complete so far.

Thus far most of the work has been with the "infrastructure" part of the 
app so it's not particularly interesting yet, but the rest of the game 
is based on this so I need your help in verifying it works properly! So 
please mess around with it a little and let me know of anything that 
comes up, whether it's a bug or suggestions for improving the 
aesthetics. I am especially interested in problems with the problem 
generator or UI on desktop browsers/iOS/Android, although feedback on 
other problems/smartphone platforms is welcome as well. Relatively 
recent Firefox/Chrome/Chromium serve as a good reference.

Android APK (Android 2.2+): 
https://github.com/klocatelli/TuxRacing/TuxRacing.apk/qr_code (May have 
to temporarily allow non-Marketplace apps)
Web-based: http://www.klocatelli.name/TuxRacing/#/index (After loading 
once, should work offline in relatively modern browsers)
iOS package will be released with the final version, but currently 
pending response from Apple regarding beta releases

Notes:
- The only setting right now is mute/unmute. There's no music yet, but 
if the setting switches between mute/unmute it's working.
- Expect *slightly* different displays between platforms (eg desktop 
Chromium has nice gradient menu buttons, but Android 2.2 has flat blue)
- The game and problem generators are internationalized, but the only 
locale is currently English. If your browser/phone/OS are set to a 
different language, you might not be able to try any problem generators.
- Chemistry problems are meant place-holders, not final; Math uses 
randomly generated problems and chemistry tests static test banks.

This release uses a temporary page for demonstrating the module practice 
exercises; I have attached preliminary designs for the future practice 
page/game and would appreciate any feedback on them (bare/basic as they 
are right now) as well!

Thank!
- Kento
