Comment on Show HN: I made a web game that makes practicing basic arithmetic fun

Comments

Feature request; my third grader needed to work on certain numbers like 3’s and 9’s, also the random number generation seemed limited when I played. Also agree zen mode is needed. Also how about adding n seconds when a correct answer is entered?

Adding options for practicing specific numbers is a neat idea, will brainstorm some ideas for this.

Sorry the random generation seemed limited, I'll see what I can do. Right now it generates the grid numbers randomly just picking from 1-9, and the magic number is selected based on what's available on the grid.

Zen mode + lives mode are on the todos!

Adding some seconds to the clock for a correct answer is a cool idea. Will experiment with this one.

Thanks for your feedback!

Hey, just wanted to let you know I took your suggestion and added a "focus number" setting. Feel free to check it out and let me know if that's the kind of thing you were looking for.

Multiple game modes have been added as well.

If you notice any problems, please let me know!

Very nice! Thank you! Kids like it in zen mode, it holds their interest for a while at least (seems like a good sign).

That is fantastic to hear :)
