Game Clock for Android
Posted: Sat Jun 08, 2013 12:42 am
I published a clock app yesterday, ideal for two player games, which may interest some of you.
It acts like a real tournament clock and has many features :
- Handle 7 different time systems (listed below)
- Undo any number of moves
- Restore the clock (if you accidentally close it or want to resume it later)
- Sound warnings if you're running out of time (can be disabled, or adjusted)
- Edit player times or change settings while playing
- Display the clock vertically or horizontally
- Remembers the settings you used last time
- Multiple text styles available
- Optimized for both phones and tablets
- Almost everything is configurable
Time systems available :
- Japanese Byo-yomi
- Canadian overtime
- Sudden death
- Sudden death + additional time (for example, 30 min + 15 min after 40 moves)
- Hourglass
- Fischer
- Bronstein
Game specific features :
- For Go players : on Canadian overtime, automatically pauses the clock to let you take your stones
It is available on Google Play :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.lrstudios.android.gameclock
Like my other apps, I try to be responsive and fix any issues quickly. So if you find a bug or have a suggestion, you can send me an email or discuss it here.
