v2.0.0 - First Official Announcement


DoomMapGuesser is back. Meet v2.0.0.

Yes, that’s right! A new version of DoomMapGuesser is coming and, oh boy, this one is one hell of a banger. Here is a list of new features you can expect…

Starting with the most obvious one, the improved UI, which includes a new font choice and a light theme! (Showcase: 1st photo is old UI, new UI is the 2nd photo)

You will now have access to a settings menu, which the previous version did not have (the settings menu is still under development - last thing before a release).

Some of the new settings are:

  • Aspect Ratio (you can now control which aspect ratio is used for the screenshots - recommended setting is “detect”)
  • Theme (including AutoDetect)
  • Screenshot Width (the width to use as guideline when resizing the screenshots - if the setting Width is Height is active, this guideline will be interpreted as the wanted height instead)
  • Databases (that’s right! You no longer have to limit yourself to playing Classic DoomMapGuesser now that you can do other databases. This basically means you can take your own screenshots, pack them up and anyone can play the database you created and guess the screenshots you added - particularly useful if you intend to extend the original with more maps or games)
  • Small Fonts (showcase: regular size on 2nd image, small size on 3rd image; sadly, the new UI makes the window of the app way bigger. Solution: small fonts mode! Padding between widgets and fonts are reduced in order to take up way less space in the screen)

That’s all for now. Get ready for the Official Release Announcement. DoomMapGuesser v2.0.0 is coming, Slayers!
