Doublemill 1.3.0 Released!

After some intense days of hard labor, we are happy to announce the latest and greatest in Doublemill. The new version 1.3 brings you some long requested features, bringing joy and awesomeness into your life. Most notable is the new highscore and a notification system to directly inform you when it is your turn in a game.

Furthermore we have fixed some bugs and made several tweeks to improve the overall gaming experience. The full list of changes contains:
  • Highscore
    • The highscore shows the total points of all players who were active in the last 30 days.
    • After that period you are not displayed in the list but your points and all other data will be preserved. To renter the list just play a game. :)
  • Notification System
    • The new notification system allows you to take full advantage of androids ability to run scheduled processes in the background.
    • When activated in them game settings you can change several options like the check interval , the type of notification and so on.
    • When turned on only a very small request is made at the given time so there is very little data transfer involved (keeping your bill low ;) )
  • Added small delay when the AI places a stone to let the AI appear more human
  • Improved list order in My Games to show the most important games at the top
  • Infos in My Games emphasis the information of greatest importance
  • Several bugfixes







And now have fun with doublemill 1.3.0! :)

We are losing it!

Doublemill has this cool feature, that lets you play online against your friends and colleagues. Unfortunately, our infrastructure is not that cool and let us down yesterday, which resulted in losing all running games.

We analyzed the problem and are working on a solution, which should be rolled out the next couple of days. Until then please bare with us - we are truly sorry for the inconvenience caused!
