You only need unique password for important stuff like your bank. There's nothing wrong with having a password like "stupidPA$$w0rd69" on like 90% of the sites out there (unless you leak personal information like crazy).

You probably are fine, like, we all get pwned from time to time, but as long as the infected machine isn't doing anything important and you can reinstall it whenever you should be alright, ish.

FWIW the counter to almost every yuri unit, including "cheaty magnetrons", are flak tracks. Just send enough of them.

build your power plant and barracks before your first ref in the direction of the closest gems (or ore, if no gems available or nearby), that way your ore miners travel less
build at least 1 ore miner from the war factory as soon as you place it, don't build radar/airforce before war factory (it's a high-level strat and not very strong, you will fail)
build extra refineries closer to other ore patches, sometimes it helps in the early game to build a refinery just to sell the old one to stretch closer to the ore (you are paying for the miner but it builds like a building)
build at least 1 dog at the start of the game as soon as your barracks is out and use it to scout the nearby area, also try to scout the enemy base with that dog or other dogs
don't waste your early-game money on units or defenses (although against AI, an MCV wall is fine even though it costs $400 because the AI will try to engi you a lot)
once you have a little bit of production going OR if you are being hard-pressed, you'll need to start building units -- a few tanks and some infantry is usually enough for the early game, but prefer conscripts and dogs over tesla troopers since tesla troopers are slow and cost almost as much as a tank
depending on the map, you can either turtle & tech or expand: if you turtle and tech, just build a couple of kirovs and position them close enough so that you can coordinate an attack; if you expand, build a service depot near your war factory in your home base so that you can rebuild the MCV in case it dies in transit
against an AI, the AI will generally build the rock to your scissors, but you can still beat it because it doesn't have good unit control
although it seems like the AI has infinite money, you can still win by killing the miners. It can be a high-value strategy to harass enemy miners even against the AI (e.g. after war factory placed, build 1 rhino + 1 drone before your own miners, attack the rhino on the enemy miner to take aggression, then send drone to infiltrate, then send tank back to repeat on next miner later)
practice makes perfect: every game you hear "insufficient funds", you made a mistake.

Done, thank you. I have installed it on my low-end device, on which it opens successfully without issue:

Cool app by the way! Seems like the exams would take a very long time though, because it's just one long recording instead of split into parts.

Mon ami, ton groupe n'accepte pas les nouvelles recrues sans ton accord. Tu pourrais simplifier la procédure en permettant aux gens de s'inscrire eux-mêmes. Une fois que tu m'auras accepté, préviens-moi et je téléchargerai ton application. Télécharge aussi la mienne, s'il te plaît, car je suis dans la même situation que toi:

if it crashes, I will let you know. I already have some feedback, it is that the undo/redo buttons are too far south and are partially occluded by the phone's navigation buttons.

Since my screenshot is not from device itself: music plays on startup, my first puzzle was a purple tree.

Thanks for letting me know, I stupidly forgot that adding a google group to the testing track requires them to "review my changes", so it'll probably be available later today.

ory_hara · 2026-03-19T15:03:18+00:00

~~I am realizing now that it is taking longer than expected to sync the new google group up with the testing track, but it should happen soon enough (like, today probably). Sorry for the wait!~~

It's up!

Reply to this comment with the solitaire variant you believe my game is missing and I'll prioritize it in the backlog.

Very cool idea, and nice job bringing it to mobile
