Love it, but as the other reviews have mentioned, the rocket animation speed is getting in the way of the game.

Fantastic game! Learned Binary/Hex in literally one sitting. Suggestion: Rocket animation speeds up at the same rate the enemies do.

Very nice game to practice hexa to binary conversion and train your memory. But it gets too difficult too early and your missiles don't move so fast as the hexadecimal numbers.

Perfect, except for the fact that the speed ramping rate it too high. By about 26+ score, even if you input the binary numbers straight away as soon as the hex numbers show up, the rockets only fire when the hex numbers hit the ground. (Basically the animation time for the rockets is too slow in my opinion). I would prefer to have longer games with higher scores so I get more practice at higer speeds without having to restart so often.

I really like this game - good nerd fun and it's really helpful for memorising hexadecimal to binary conversion. Only thing I would suggest is that the rocket animation and coding could be faster, because once you get to around 24 it's almost impossible to convert the hexadecimal numbers in time. Overall though, great app! For those who don't understand how to play the game, just search up hexadecimal to binary and learn a bit about these two number systems!

I have played this way back on February (by PC) and it's great! I could remember how to get used with hexadecimals and binary. Now that I've forgotten about it and found this app again, I would play this for entire month! My record on PC is 41 so, hopefully with this comeback, I can overcome 50. Thanks, Q42!

About this app

Flippy Bit And The Attack Of The Hexadecimals From Base 16

Hi

We at Q42 have teamed up with Russian psychologist Kateryna Afinogenova to create this experiment to test her recent study in which a group of 420 kids were shown to have a natural talent for doing bitwise operations and conversions to hexadecimals.

"Seven percent of the test group could bitshift" she said to Scientific World News in an exclusive interview, which caught our nerdy attention. Especially the following statement:

"While adults have trouble with binary numbers, from around the age of two, children can not only calculate on a binary scale, but even translate from binary to hexadecimal - and back."

We were able to contact her and collaborate remotely on this experimental game that allows kids to literally do that conversion. Afinogenova requested to omit a tutorial to further emphasize the adoption difficulty between adults and children.

We were amazed by the results. You can be amazed too! Play the game and find out!
