Update 3.1
We recently released an update, version 3.10. The update added:
-wind: still experimental, probably will rename dragger or something else in future. It can be used to throw sand and such places, not very useful right now though.
Bug fix: The top of the screen now has an invisible wall like the other 3 sides, useful for accelerometer control

Update: 3.00
This update changed the name from "Element Works" to "Reactions" and changed the icon as well. We felt like the icon was a bit boring and decided to change the name with it. Any feedback on these changes are welcome. Two new elements were also added to the update.
-Fuse: Like plant except it doesn't grow with water.
-Destructible Wall: Like wall, but can be melted by magma. It also can be turned to sand with the use of explosives.
Hope you like the update!

BUG FIX: v1.87
We recently released an update which seemed to have a massive bug for phones running 1.6. We apologize for the fact that it wasn't fixed for several days because both of us were out of town and didn't get a chance to work on it, so we took it off the market until we could fix it. Yesterday we got together and released an update that should have fixed the bug. Please let us know if you are still having issues after the update, and we'll try to fix it ASAP.

Sorry! Our app is down for a bit...
We recently released two updates: 1.85 + 1.86 that seemed to work on the droid but didn't work on some other phones. Because of this, we had to temporarily unpublish our app to avoid other people getting the faulty update. Hopefully we'll have this fixed soon.

Update: v1.85 + v1.86
v1.85 was created in response to a user comment suggesting that the UI be optional. We quickly modified the code and released with the new changes, however there were a few bugs.
v1.86 fixed the following bugs from 1.85: Eraser was missing in non-ui mode. UI preference was not saved and often needed to be toggled twice.
However, we still have a bug with it crashing on some phones (not Droid) which we are working to fix. Please be patient!

Update: v1.8
v1.8 is out! Only one thing was changed in this update: the UI. We did our best to make this into a much more user-friendly app, and hopefully we succeeded. In this latest update, we added in two bars, one on top of the screen, and one below.
On the top, most of the options that used to reside in the options menu are now in the forms of buttons above. The buttons in order are: Eraser(toggle), Play/Pause(toggle), Save, Load, Load Demo, and Exit. The first two buttons are labelled toggle because they alternate between two states. In the case of the Eraser button, it starts of deselected, but when you press it, it gets highlighted in red, and the current element is switched to an eraser. When you press it again, it goes back to deselected and your previous element becomes the current one again. The Play/Pause button toggles between being in Play mode and Pause mode, with the button showing what mode it will go to when you click it. The other buttons are pretty straight-forward.
On the bottom, there is one button and a slider next to it. The button has a palette symbol and functions as the new element picker. The slider is the new brush size picker, allowing you to easily change the size without having to go into the menu every time you wanted to make a slight change.
Even though most of the options were taken out of the options menu, a few were left, namely: Clear Screen, Toggle Size, and Preferences. The one change we made to this part was that for each of these that were left, we added in icons to just make it look nice!
Hopefully you will enjoy these new features! If you have any comments, suggestions, complaints, or just praise, send us an email: idkjava@gmail.com
