are not to help you debug your software. They are to help users decide whether or not to download it. Therefore a comment stating that, despite being marked as "beta," your software was "alpha" quality has validity. Please don't whine about it, it's horribly unprofessional.

real Quarto! game, and it is one of my favorites. I have several suggestions for this software-Quarto!. 1. It should let us freely grab and rotate the gameboard just like QuickTime VR. 2. It should highlight a circle when the mouse pointer is inside a circle. If you change the "Mouse-over sensitivity" a little bit to the right, then it starts selecting multiple circles, and if you adjust it a little to the left, it has a very small sweet spot. 3. The grid lines on the pieces should be removed. 4. The light source may be one of the cool features, but the board is too dark. 5. When the game is over, it should highlight the completed pieces, so that players have a chance to see and say 'Agggh!'. 6. When the above #1 and #2 are fixed, the "convenience board" can go away. It is not easy to use especially when the board is rotating, anyway. 7. The message in the status window can be displayed in the "Pieces" window. 8. "Give selected piece" button should not be highlited until a piece is selected. 9. Double clicking on a piece should "give the piece" to the opponent. Once these things are fixed, I think this will be one of my favorite game software.
