One more

"It is not knowledge, but the act of learning, not possession but the act of getting there, which grants the greatest enjoyment. When I have clarified and exhausted a subject, then I turn away from it, in order to go into darkness again; the never-satisfied man is so strange if he has completed a structure, then it is not in order to dwell in it peacefully, but in order to begin another. I imagine the world conqueror must feel thus, who, after one kingdom is scarcely conquered, stretches out his arms for others."

—KARL FRIEDRICH GAUSS, Letter to Bolyai, 1808.

Sink A Ship included in the Softpedia Mac OS software database

Few months ago I got mail from softpedia saying:

"Congratulations,

Sink A Ship, one of your products, has been added to Softpedia's database
of software programs for Mac OS...
...We are impressed with the quality of your
product and encourage you to keep these high standards in the future..."

:)

Although it's simple game, the feeling is nice when you get this kind of email. I didn't write to softpedia and the only places I wrote about the game is here, on blogspot, and on jfxstudio, place for sharing JavaFX experiments.

My experiment with JavaFX turned out to be interesting for kids these days just like the game which "Sink a ship" was based on, "Seawolf", was interesting for me and my sister when we were kids.

Well, show it to your kids and share some ideas for improvements.


My better half, my <3 made me work harder to make the game looks like this. I wanted to try JavaFX and my game would look like a bunch of triangles running around.
