Melibellule a dit :

If I may add some clarifications...

Short+Speed is still here because there's a bug with the random duration of the powerups, it shouldn't happen and hopefully we will be able to fix it very soon.

We added a major optimization of the arrows, that doesn't allow the old Rotate anymore. It's a bit techy, but the arrows were previously drawn in Flash, in vectors, so we could make them spin and everything but it took a lot of resource because even if the arrows are light, vectors are hard to calculate for the processor. So, we made the arrows still images, in "png", bitmap images. But we can't make them spin anymore because that would cause the game to have to create a png at each position of the spinning arrow. Way too laggy. We can't pre-render them either because there are too many colors and it'd take too much time to do it all at once.

That's why we introduced the new Rotate, or Tornado as some like to call it : we can only make the arrows slide around, from left to right and up/down.

We also realized but too late that Tornado+Speed was impossible... and Azrou banned it too on our local version, it should be updated on our servers tomorrow.

All in all, I like this Tornado variation better because it messes less with my mind, I only have to pay attention to the bottom of the arrow interface. Yes, I think it's easier than old Rotate, but we just couldn't keep old Rotate considering half our playerbase was lagging too much to be even playing.
