Some Minor Fixes
From the proposal that has been posted on this blog on 10 Of October 2017 about Multimedia and Human Computer Interaction Final Project, we decided to make minor changes in our game. We changed the placement of the References button on the Main Menu Layout to be under the Tutorial button.
We changed the points limits of all level. Level 1 from 20 to 50, Level 2 from 35 to 75, Level 3 from 50 to 100.
this is level 1
this is level 2
this is level 3
