Hey,

 

I've been working on this game on and off for the last year and finally released it for Windows Phone and Android a few weeks ago. Try it out, you may like it if you're into casual arcade/puzzler games!

 

From the store description:

 

Slingpin is a fun and addictive arcade puzzler. The goal is to knock down all bowling pins by aiming and firing your ball with a slingshot. Sounds easy, right? 
 
The difficulty increases as you progress through the game. You must carefully aim and shoot, it requires skills and great timing to get three stars on all levels! Watch out for explosives, tennis ball cannons, pinball bumpers, teleporting pins and other creative obstacles.

From your apps comments on the WP Market:

"Ancient Chinese Secret? The sex ads are not appropriate for any age. Typical Asian mentality. Uninstalling and boycotting Oriental food."

 

I'll give it a shot. Looks like a fun app.

Yeah, I noticed that. I though it was spam so I reported it to Microsoft. Apparently it wasn't, so they won't remove the review. Of course there's no sexual content in the app, nor in the ads. And I don't get the asian references ..

I tried the game and I love it. I paid for the ad removal, really well made. I especially like the zoom effect when you make a perfect move. I will recommend it to my friends and family.

 

Now, one tip: You should add a video to the app store page. I didn't do it for my game (yet) but I heard some people won't download a game (even a free game) if there's no demo video available.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      Umm, read my answer again! If you have something to add or contribute, feel free. Otherwise my point was that you apparently dont want faster updates... so you want slower updates by process of elimination. If you have something to contribute, meaningful answers are better.

    • Visual Studio finally gets long-awaited feature that developers will love

      By Eder Cardoso · Posted

      These features described above are good, but far from what developers will like the most. The main feature that developers will care and love the most it's called "Bring Your Own Models". It gives us the ability to connect to LOCAL AI models running on Ollama. The feature it's located on GitHub Copilot tab -> On the model picker where you can select "manage models" instead of paid models and then it will show you the "Bring your own models" window where you can now select Ollama and the endpoint of your local server. So if you have a beefy spec machine you can now use your own model 100% local inside Visual Studio 2026 18.7.0
    • Microsoft Teams is getting a controversial location tracking feature that users may hate

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft Teams is getting a controversial location tracking feature that users may hate by Usama Jawad Image generated with Microsoft Copilot Earlier this year, Microsoft planned to roll out a controversial location tracking feature in Teams, but following customer feedback, it decided to delay its release. The bad news is that the company has decided to launch it later this year, but it's based on roughly the same design that was shared earlier, which means that many users still have good reason to worry. Basically, Microsoft Places and Teams have received workplace check-ins via Wi-Fi. The idea is that if an employee arrives at the office and connects to their enterprise network, their profile status indicator will show them as being present in the office. For example, if you arrive at work, open Teams on your PC, and connect to the "Studio B" company Wi-Fi network, your Teams profile will indicate that you are present in "Studio B", as shown below: Microsoft says that this feature is basically a replacement for physical workplace check-in peripherals, it reduces the need to manually update your status, and it also enables co-workers to know that you're at work so that they can coordinate in-person meetings with you. IT admins can enable this workplace check-in capability at a tenant level, and users have the ability to control whether they want to enable it or not. Of course, all of that sounds great on paper, but naturally, many Teams customers may still have concerns, as they did before. This is because it enables your reporting manager and other members of the organization to track if you are at the office, when you arrive at the office, and where you are right now. This could be problematic for people who work in what they consider to be flexible work environments or hybrid setups, and this kind of location tracking could be considered an invasion of privacy. Microsoft has tried to alleviate some of these concerns by letting users know that they can manually set their location easily, which essentially overrides workplace check-in if they feel uncomfortable with it. However, that doesn't really solve the problem because your organization could enforce a workplace policy that mandates that this feature remains enabled. The Redmond tech giant has also assured users that this capability does not store historical data and is only a real-time indicator of location. Finally, it only generates a signal when you connect to a corporate network, which means that if you are working from home and connect your PC to your personal Wi-Fi, it won't broadcast your location to your employer; you will simply be shown as "Remote". Microsoft has encouraged IT admins to prepare for this change and begin informing users so they know what to expect once it begins rolling out later this year.
