More about MathRush v2 for Windows 8

Earlier this week we released the second edition of MathRush for Windows 8.  You can download it here.

This version contains various new features and improvements:

  • Overall UI improvements and consistent visual theme across all app pages
  • New pages for Help, About
  • New Page for Leaderboard to view your overall game stats and infor for all top players
  • More information on the Results page
  • Live tiles that notify you about new game highscores around the world
We intend this blog to be both an experience journal about the development of our apps as well as a way to tell more about the end-user features we add into our apps.

For full transparency, here is some more developer focused information about this app:
  • This app is written entirely in C# and uses the XAML framework for all UI
  • We made use of Visual Studio designer, Blend and some raw XAML editing to create the UI
  • The cloud backend has been provided by Azure Mobile Services
We have also increased our online presence and are always looking for feedback (and encouragement).  We can be found at the following locations:
We hope you like the app!
