SongArc is a really fun rhythm and music game for Windows Phone. Both Windows Telephone seven and 8 users tin enjoy information technology, although it won't piece of work with 256MB devices on terminal generations Bone. The game has been well received past the Windows Telephone community too. In the first week of availability it picked up xiv,000 users who then played 73,000 games after creating 1,600 music sheets!

It's a huge update for the just launched game. A number of you folks reported problems with the game launching too deadening or the illusion that it froze while "connecting to server". These problems were near credible for Windows Phone 7 users. The cause? Over 7,000 sheets have been created by users since the game launched three weeks ago. That huge number of sheets caused the error for folks, but this latest gear up hopefully address that.

Other changes to the app are somewhat full general and should give the app an overall polish that might have been e'er then lacking at launch. Of course, these changes are a result from users like y'all downloading, playing, and giving feedback to the developers.
