User blog:Pgrobban/Crystal Calculator 2.0 alpha released

I have created an alpha release for the new version of Cookie Run and I'm currently looking for testers. Tomorrow I will be going on vacation for about two weeks so I probably won't be available for immediate replies on feedback or fixing bugs, but I will hopefully be able to check my inbox at least once a day at the hotel and reply when I can.

So first of all, let me reiterate that this is an alpha release -- it's not even beta so don't use this as your primary source for calculations yet. An alpha release means it's highly unstable.

Specifically, if you want to use this build, note the following:
 * There is no save feature yet. This is because I haven't decided on the format that I want to use in the next release (beta).
 * Not all Certificate and Trophy Treasures have been added (also, please continue to fill in the Trophy Treasures page so I can get the data and images!)
 * The feature that recommends you which treasures to upgrade is also not in this build.
 * I haven't tested it in browsers other than Chrome on OS X+iOS and Safari on iOS. If you encounter any visual glitches or bugs, report it along with which browser you are using.
 * Although the site is responsive (designed to be mobile-friendly), currently all the code is running as if it were untouched. This means there is a lot of background loading (~5-10 MB), so if you don't have Wi-fi or unlimited data, don't use this version!

Although I said before that I won't make any design changes, I couldn't help but trying out a few things:
 * As can be seen, I'm trying a "Material Design" theme, which Android users should feel more familiar with navigating. For iOS and other users, what do you think about this?
 * I have also added a bar at the bottom which will show the calculated result instead of having to scroll down to the bottom like in the previous version.
 * For tablet and desktop users, I have added detailed calculation info under each treasure that you have. Do you guys think it's useful? Would you like a toggle to hide it or always be open?

So with that in mind, here is the alpha release of Crystal Calculator 2. I'm looking forward to hear all your feedback :)



This version should also hopefully fix the Chrome bug I had in the previous versions where adding a Chest treasure would not reset the picker.

Expect a beta version somewhere in early August and a final release somewhere around mid-August.
