Hello!

I'm here to announce that the 3.1.0 version of the MOST Mods has been released! The MOST Mods now feature the Tips Screen toggle option!

After a survey that a few members has voted, I finally took the decision to replace the Sound Volume option by a Tips Screen toggle option for the 3.1.0 version. Since every Android devices now feature volume buttons, there isn't much purpose to the Sound Volume option.

When this option is turned ON, the game displays the Tips Screen which makes the game to load. However, when this option is turned OFF, the game lets you play the game as quickly as possible, saving you seconds of waiting!

Also, the MOST Mods are no longer automatically set the sound volume to 9/15 anytime you select a soundtrack or delete the game data.
