October 28th, 2011: Refraction won the The Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Prize for the Best Work in the Primary School Category in the NHK Japan Prize 2011! Thanks so much, NHK!
August 19th, 2011: After many requests we have added a reset button (click menu).
Feb 2nd, 2011: A major bug causing the game to freeze in Chrome was fixed, but unfortunately this deleted some saved games. We’re very sorry about this, though on the plus side the game should be getting badges soon!
Sept 17th, 2010: We fixed the loading issue, finally. All of the assets should load at the beginning. It will take a bit longer (it’s a huge game, sorry) but there should not be several loading screens any more. Also we fixed the bug with the level select screen.
Sept 17th, 2010: We added an option to disable auto-forwarding, in the options menu.
Sept 17th, 2010: We sped up the game a lot. We’re working on speeding it up more. We will add an option to disable auto-forwarding. Expect another update soon.
