MindMaze is a collection of puzzle games being created by Knightfox. Beta 3 has been released, including an alpha version of the third puzzle game.

Released Notes:
After spending a few days working on it, we already have a playable alpha version of the 3rd mini-game of Mind Maze.

Additional Info:

Mind Maze is a compendium of minigames in which intelligence and skill with the stylus are the basics to solve them.


- How to Play.

Main Menu
-------------
At start, Mind Maze ask us to choice if we are right or left handed and give us the possibility to switch languages (English / Spanish).
In the Main Menu, we can move the icons with the stylus, moving them right and left. To select a minigame or option, we must tap the desired icon twice.

1st Mini Game - Slide Puzzle
----------------------------------
The objective of this minigame is to solve a sliding tile puzzles of 3x4 in the shortest time possible with the less amount of moves.
A better score, gives you more credits to buy more puzzles.

The 2nd minigame - Couples
----------------------------------
This is a memory game. We will have to make 4 pairs per round, in a total of 4 rounds, leaving the "Joker" card to the end of each round.
If we uncover before we lose all couples accumulated for that round and we will start again.

A second release candidate of OpenTTD has been released. OpenTTD is a clone of the Microprose game "Transport Tycoon Deluxe", a popular game originally written by Chris Sawyer. It attempts to mimic the original game as closely as possible while extending it with new features.

Author says:

In case your plan was to help testing RC1 over the weekend: We are sorry. However, you are welcome to help testing RC2 :)

The second release candidate contains a lot of bug fixes and is a big step forward to stabilising OpenTTD 1.1. Unlike previous betas and RC1 it does not offer any new features though. But more stability is also a gameplay-improvement! You can find the download in the usual spot together with the changelog. Please report any bugs to our bugtracker. Don't be afraid to register at the bugtracker, fixing bugs often requires bi-directional communication between reporters and developers.

Finally you should note that voting round 1 of the title game competition has been closed. The best three advanced to round 2 and you can now vote for one of them to become the title game of the 1.1.x series of OpenTTD! Go straight to the voting page; you do not even have to register for voting :p
