Update on fixing bugs and improving the game:

-Due to iOS 7's release, I have been unable to fix a major bug in the iPhone version, which is that people's scores and achievements disappear within several hours of their last game. This is a core problem so I hope I can fix it soon.

-The Android version (up to 1.2) is quite good now. I changed the number of questions to 5, and also made some achievements easier to get. I've also changed the style of the quiz - basically, you will quickly get to see every question in the quiz, rather than it being randomly selected.

The Android version still has a few bugs on some Android phones. These include:

-Not being able to install on some Android phones.
-Giving an incorrect warning about intrusiveness on some Android phones.
-Text going over the limit on some phones.

Going forward, we plan to:

-Increase functionality and add new features.
-Maybe read out the sentences so people can hear them.
-Publish to Windows, Mac OS desktop, and HTML5.
-Tidy up the game so it runs a bit more smoothly.
