More info to follow!
Quick Directions:
* To Permanently Change Settings: Go to the Settings application on your device and scroll down to Stonage, make changes as necessary.
* To Change Settings in Game: Tap the "gear" icon. That brings up a settings menu that corresponds to the main settings mentioned above.
* Look for the tip-of-the-day on the front screen. It's only graphical assistance currently but hopefully it will help explain some of the functionality. It changes daily.
* More help coming! Thanks for the constructive feedback!!

Stonage is the latest iPhone app employing rock, paper, scissors (you know, the standard decision making method for solving important issues such as where to go for lunch, who buys the next round, and who has to flip the off-switch on the other side of the contaminated reactor room inside the nuclear plant). However, our plans will take this in a more strategic direction.
Features
* Configurable Tendencies - Now you can skew the random weapon generator to suit your preference. If you play against someone that almost always throws paper, you can set it to where you almost always throw scissors.
* True Randomness - If you'd rather not show a tendency, the algorithm will select it for you. We've thrown down tens of thousands of times and each session is different.
* Localization - Stonage currently contains localized text for English, Simplified Chinese, Spanish and German. More to follow soon.
* Shake or Push - Use the accelerometer capabilities of the iPhone to simulate a standard rock, paper, scissors battle or go for speed with push button fighting.
* Compatability Mode (1 Person) - allows you to play against any other standard RPS game out there (even those poor people using their hands)!
* Computer Mode - allows you to battle head-to-head against your iPhone arch-enemy. Currently, the computer always goes with a straight probability play although that may be an option in a future version.
* Win/Lose/Draw Analysis - When fighting the computer, automatically keep track of how often your weapons are thrown and what their outcomes are. Is throwing a rock all the time really working for you?
* Reset the scores with a swipe of the scoreboard.
* Toggle the sounds for aural feedback of your weapon choice.
* Cool, easy to follow interface.
Future versions will include features to increase playability, strategy (especially against other Stonage users), even more localizations, and some really cool secret things to appeal to the hard core RPS players out there. Whether you call it rock, paper, scissors; rochambeau; roshambo; or jan-ken-pon - you'll have fun battling your opponent.
