and once again sorry for a bit delayed update on screen scaling bug.
This is now fixed and should work fine.
Happy New Year everyone and hopefully in 2017 we will release multiplayer mode for this game.
Cheers!

Update v1.003 - Windows ONLY - Crash reporting system
Hi everyone,
from time to time we get reports that game crashes on the launch or at some point and usually it's quite tedious to catch the bug without proper information.
I'm happy to announce that we have integrated crash reporting system in Ace Of Words.
In general if your game crashes, game will generate 3 files in the same folder where your main executable file is:
OceanMedia-Crash-Instructions.txt
OceanMedia-CrashReport.txt
OceanMedia-CrashDump.dmp
First file on the list is obvious, describes what to do in this case.
Other two files is what we need and just simply email them to support@oceanmedia.hr and we'll take it from there.
This will help us a lot to improve the game and cure terminal bugs.

Full Release v1.0
Hi everyone,
we have decided to go in full release and release the game with new languages.
With this build we are featuring new languages.
Right now, following languages were added:
German
Spanish
Portugese
Hrvatski / Croatian
Following languages are in preapration and will be released within 10 days:
French
Italian
Dutch
Polish
Turkish
Also in upcoming weeks we will release Linux and Mac versions of the game.
Once all languages we have planned are out, we will continue working on something
what we think is ultimate goal for this game, that is multiplayer mode.
Note about other languages dictionaries, not same rules for the word set is used as for English due various language specifics.
Also, please note, that dictionaries are not perfect but we think they will serve well to provide good entertainment.
Where we notice serious issues and get reports, we'll make sure to improve them.
Note for players in Croatian language:
Napomena za sve igrače koji igraju na hrvatskom jeziku da igra sadrži varijacije riječi po padežima i rodovima.
Also, we are looking for help to translate User Interface text to proper languages. Right now, all UI text is in english.
Thanks once again on all active feedback, we are making notes and working on improvements and bug fixes.

MAJOR UPDATE - new game mode and leaderboard added
Hi everyone,
this is MAJOR update as it brings couple of things.
Since we have very good and active discussion on the forums, over the time we figured out what are some points where we can improve the game and how to make it more fun.
This game was at first imagined to run as anagram puzzle with 8 letters. During the discussion in the forum couple of players asked why can not we choose how many letters I want to play with? :) lol
Anyway, we are bringing 6-letter mode with this update as DEFAULT mode and 8-letter mode can be switched to via Options dialog. There's checkbox right below SFX slider.
We have tested this 6-letter mode for last week or so and I must say it feels way more fun.
With this new mode, it's natural that we bring up also new leaderboard, so here it is.
If you switch the game mode under the Options dialog, on the Main Menu screen appropriate leaderboard will be pulled down from Steam server.
As a result of these changes we had to increase version of the save game file, so older save game won't work for you.
Besides these major things, we fixed an issue which have forced game to run in windowed mode even if you try to switch to full screen via Options.
Also dictionary is improved a bit, number of reported words were removed.
Thanks a lot for the active discussion in the Community Hub section, it helps us a lot to improve the game.
Have fun and let us know your feedback.
