It's back but I think one day of data is lost!


Dots: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dots-a-game-about-connecting...


I'm not fan of Dots, actually. While Eliss and Letterpress have their own rules and strategies (similar to Braid, for example), Dots feels too much like a Bejeweled clone to me.

Maybe I didn't give it a fair shot? What do you think?


it gets quite addictive when you want to get a good score. A small tip, make squares (2x2), this will clear the colour from the board.


0.1, and he turned into Flash.


This was good. Who is the vocalist? Sounds like Michael Caine to me.


I think it's Jonathan Hutchings, a Finnish DJ. Got it from here: http://www.whiskyfun.com/Gigs/Husky-Rescue.html


On somewhat unrelated note. Thanks for using the music. I have always been huge fan of Husky Rescue (and this particular track). Did you had to get their permission?


Ah ok! Anyways, amazing piece of work!


It is a welsh DJ living in Helsinki named Jonathan Hutchings.


Now it does.


Thanks for the suggestion, it works good now.

The little bell is harder because you tend to type a couple of characters during its decay

Freesound has plenty of typewriter samples.


This [for newline] keeps up with the app aurea and it's short enough to solve decay problems: http://www.freesound.org/people/orginaljun/sounds/153063/


Yes, bit lower and less 'ringy' than the manual typewriters I used for years but fits in with the clicks used for the characters. Nice find


You can close it and go to bed. If you come back in the morning, your poem/story will be loaded for you.


Truly nice. Simple and beautiful. can i use it on my website?


Why not?

Difficult to read the data with that solution though, if it had one JS API, it would become more useful...


Do I need to use the same browser or does it ID my computer some other way?


Same browser for now.


LocalStorage FTW


Exactly.


http://pasteboard.co/ seems to have a better UI than this but it lacks the editor. Good Job!
