Kitty Spangles Solitaire Serials

Reactions to 3.5

Hi Kitty lovers! It's been a busy two weeks here at Kitty Central since the release of version 3.5!

The reaction to this update has been very positive, and we're very pleased with all the new friends that Kitty has made.

We were fortunate enough to be chosen as the Featured Download over at Apple's Mac Software Downloads, as well as being chosen as one of their Staff Picks. Kitty ended up in Apple's Top 10 downloads, and for a week or so solitaire players around the globe were downloading about 30GB of Kitty goodness a day. That's a lot of stylish-yet-affordable solitaire action, no?

There were a few glitches though! Version 3.5.1 was released a few days later, and if you haven't grabbed it yet, then now is a good time.


Serial Number Sadness

A few issues remain before we go back to work on our next project (the secret one with the code-name ending in -udoku). Some players are reporting that Kitty gives them no way to enter their Serial Numbers. Our crack team of Oompa Loompas are investigating but in the meantime here's a fix:
  1. launch Kitty Spangles Solitaire
  2. press the OK button in the Welcome window
  3. when the game appears, press New Hand
  4. after Kitty has laid out the hand, press Quit
  5. launch Kitty once more

You should now see a different welcoming window, complete with an Enter Serial Number... button. Sorry for the hassles -- we'll get this fixed up soon.

And remember, Serial Numbers can always be renewed for free, online. Simply visit this page and enter the email address used when you received your Serial Number.

If your email address has changed, just drop us a line, supplying your new email address as well as your real-life, home address (street and suburb) so we can be sure it's the real you and not your fake, internet stalker you.


Feedback

We love hearing from you! If you have any suggestions or questions, let us know. If you have sent us a message recently, or have purchased Kitty and have not received a reply in short order, there may be a mail problem (probably to do with junk mail handling). If so, please leave a comment here and check back regularly.

  • Hi. I've just tried the trial of you solitaire suite!
    Is great, and one of the most nicest around!

    I'm planning to get a full version in the next weeks, but there's one thing I'm missing. I came from Windows (now I'm a Mac addict :-) ), and used to have SolSuite, where cards could be customized. Will be any chance for users to customize the cards in Kitty Spangles? I love the classical cards, even if yours are very nice.

    I think that this addition (the option to use custom cards, download new ones) will be a great addition!

    Any chance to see it? :-)

    Thanks and keep the good work going!

    Regards,
    Alex

  • Thanks very much -- we're very glad you like Kitty!

    We do have lots of plans for Kitty, including card customization. I can't say when new cards will be included because we're working on other Kitty games as well, but different card sets are on the list.

    Cheers!
