But now, it's all good and the game is very polished for what it is and an enjoyable time waster Update: I was having a problem with this game even starting , wouldn't get past the intro screen before rebooting to the home screen.......but after a few days, like i hoped it would, it just started working and no more issues.

I agree that MineHunt 3D could use better graphics, but I hardly play addicting games for the graphics... like regular minesweeper on my computer. The different modes in Mines in Space are really just the same game mechanics. Imposter is the end of the game when you realize you've flagged too many and need to fix your problem, and UFO Finder is minesweeper without clearing most of the spaces. Rockets is the only one that's really creative, but really isn't that fun at all. Its like a slide puzzle needing some improvement in control... especially when you find yourself needing shift all but one column up or down a row. While creative, its still the same old game in the end, just extremely well polished. @darwiniandude: Yeah it seems like the same gameplay, but triangles, pentagons and hexagons thrown into the mix along with edges and corners really takes some getting used to.

Perhaps you can have it operate as the keyboard caps-lock function, in which a double-tap places it in 'Flag Mode stay-on', another tap turns it off, single tap functions as it currently does. Good work making a worthy game. This looks very well done, just wanted to leave a comment with a simple suggestion about the 'Flag mode stay-on' issue.

We'll hopefully get this fixed, and a zip of them all up at some point today. Oh, and thanks for all the comments, based on these we're putting together a feature list for the first update - with a 'Flag mode stay-on' option at the very top!! @Marty
