Version 3.6 is a major upgrade for the start of the new curling season. It adds puzzles, achievements, and star ratings, a re-worked interface to support larger screens, and the bots continue to get stronger.

Version 3.5 was had many big improvements: a shiny new curling club to play in, smarter and more accurate AI with detailed skills and biases, new Learn to Curl content, a refreshed UI, improved coaching and practice tools, and a smoother overall game.

This was a time of rapid iteration after the initial release. I added coaching tools to help read the ice and learn how rocks move, refreshed the UI, and added ice tuning options. Version 3.3 was the first release for Android, so True Curling is now on Google Play as well as the App Store.

This was a hectic time getting it ready for the winter Olympics. The first version came out during the Olympics. It was the sequel to the classic Granite curling games from the early 2000s and was known as Granite 3 at the time.

CurlingWorks had been a side hobby for a couple years. This is when it became my full time job/infatuation, with the first focus being a sequel to Granite 1 and 2.
