Developer Comments

Once I tell you that there are 369 octominoes, you'll understand why I stopped at heptominoes. Interestingly no-one has found a formula for predicting how many in each group!

Release Notes

Version 22 — June 17, 2011 — 121 KB

Tablet mode has been added. This is the scheme:

* x = left click
* o = right click = try
* tick or enter = change level
* arrow keys will move the pointer

Ominoes will now work properly without alteration in a non-Sugar environment.

I'm gradually revisiting all my activities. To make it easy to recognise these revisited versions, they will all start at Version number 21. You can easily tell which version you have by pressing the v key - if this gives no response, then you have an older version.
