    This is very problematic since we cant really know from where the user is viewing the scene, 3d wise when he asks for a hint.
    crex, do you think the orientation is the source of the problem?

    The game is already in store but we asked the mod to keep this thread alive so we can keep testing the updates here:)

    Both work! But all the achievements are all with the same icon. I hope you can design some unique ones for each achievement later. :)

    What if you could automatically orient the level to the ideal angle for the hint? No matter which way they are facing, when they hit the hint have the level rotate to the ideal and then place the hint.

    Or instead of rotating the angle (if that is too difficult to program) have a 2d photo of the level from the angle most appropriate for the hint and show an arrow and a target to where they want to hit. And then the player will have to figure out which angle is being shown in the photo. So when the hint button is pressed a new photo comes onscreen, you study it, then tap to return to the level. Then you have to try to recreate the photo angle and where the photo said to throw the ball.

    I could see this as a frustrating point because you earn the hints and then you waste them if you are not facing the right direction when you ask to use them. Things will fall the wrong way and you just wasted a hint, unless you try that hint from every angle possible and that I could see as frustrating as well.

    Thanks! Both ways will require a lot of work, but I will try to think how we can implement your suggestion.
