I have published this update to try to solve some confusion. In previous versions of the game, an incorrectly-placed flag has been represented like this: Note the image of the mine with an X above it. This is how incorrectly-placed flags have been represented in other Minesweeper
I've just published an update which should fix some of the problems we've been experiencing with the leaderboards. Unfortunately this means I've had to wipe the leaderboards once again, as I haven't been able to filter out the false times which were posted due to the error. Pleas
I've updated two of the style options to be more visually friendly. A few reviews mentioned that they were much too bright to play comfortably! Please let me know how you find them.
I've made another small change to the keyboard shortcuts, changing the key to the key for the hint feature. This is so that it doesn't interfere with the key combination to toggle the Steam overlay. Thanks to the helpful gamer who quickly brought this to my attention!

I've just remapped some of the keyboard shortcuts, as I was informed about a bug. Instead of pressing 1 and 2, the keyboard shortcuts for the restart and hint buttons are now CTRL and SHIFT. The in-game advisory text has also been updated to remind us of these changes.

This update makes a significant change to the Minesweeper Ultimate leaderboards. Leaderboards now consider milliseconds as well as whole seconds. This is to make the leaderboards more competitive. The in-game clock has also been updated to display milliseconds. I have also added
A very minor update which adds localized text to the 'Custom' and 'Start' buttons. Minesweeper Arcade has also just been published. Check it out!
A minor update, replacing the volume control text entry boxes with clickable +/- buttons. Some behind-the-scenes code refactoring for on-screen UI icons.
I've made a slight adjustment to the default colour scheme. The colours for 'hint' squares are now a little deeper, with the intention of making the game easier on the eyes. Let me know how you find it!
Custom boards are here! We can now set custom boards with adjustable width, height and number of mines. These can be played in all game modes; classic, hex and triangle. As this is the first implementation of this feature, I'll listen out for any bug reports. Please let me know i
Greetings, minesweepers! I've finally fixed a bug which has been troubling us for some time. From version 1.0.9, your first click will always reveal a blank tile. This will help us avoid the frustrating situation of needing to guess at the beginning of a game. Please let me know
I've just added a new colour scheme to the game, which now has a total of 6 style options. Choose your favourite and play!
I've just added Turkish and Traditional Chinese language support to Minesweeper Ultimate . I have also fixed some small layout bugs which had longer text strings go off the bounds of the game window. Let's play!

I have added Japanese, Korean and Polish language options to Minesweeper Ultimate . Let's play!
-Bug fixed in Hex mode: not all blank tiles were revealed when clicking. -Timer can now be toggled to transparent. Click on it before or during the game to toggle its transparency.
