Junea is not the capital of AL (Alabama.) However, JUNEAU *is* capital of AK (Alaska.) And the capital of Australia is Canberra, not Cameron. What other misinformation is included here? Might want to triple-check that sample file for other errors. These are just two that I caught within the first six questions I played.

Having said that, I can see a good future for this software with a few more revisions and polishing.

I love the idea!
As a teacher I see numerous opportunities here.
There are some problems though.

There should be a full screen option, and there should also be an option for using two monitors. Showing the questions to the class, while I have "control" from my iBook.

I thought I could give it a try with my class, but the issues I have mentioned above, must be looked at first.
But if the minor "hiccups" is fixed, this would be super. I would actually pay for a program like that.

Thanks.

Good start with this game. I like the dedication to making it as close to the real thing as possible (but that might get you into trouble...). A couple of suggestions:

  • Full Screen mode would be great -- this is a wonderful game for classroom use on an infocus projector (see the shareware program Hazard for an example of a not-ready-for-primetime example that has full screen)

    Having three players is great, but what if two people want to play? Or four?

    What about a time limit for hitting the button?

    Your windows don't obey OS X rules -- right now I'm typing this but the Selection and Score windows are hovering above Safari...
