History

  • Dragon Flight remade, Hindi, free trial and a lot of polish

    1.5.0

    Dragon Flight is a new game top to bottom: five stages, fireballs you aim by steering, lightning that hunts you in the storm, and a wyvern shoot-out at the end. The whole site now speaks Hindi too, and Premium comes with a three week free trial. Plenty of smaller fixes across the games and the builder landed alongside.

    Dragon Flight: canyon, peaks, sky hunt, storm and duel, with new art, a briefing screen, and Space or a click to shoot

    Hindi joins English, Spanish and Chinese as a site language, including the tutor

    Premium free trial: three weeks on a saved card, cancel before it ends and pay nothing

    Spell Sprint starts faster, Chess Quiz has a new knight and no clock, Zyko Cross lets a right answer save your spot

    The Free plan is now called Base; premium games stay included for now

    Custom avatar uploads unlock at 2000 XP

  • New game: Spell Sprint (beta)

    1.3.0

    A hard 3-lane sprint through the enchanted academy — and a new kind of study game. Nothing interrupts your run: the questions ARE the rescue. Crash into a spell carriage, or let the ever-gaining library golem catch you, and a question pops up. A right answer breaks you free (miss and the next question comes at you); nail your first one and the golem gets blasted back with a speed boost.

    Spell Sprint: swipe between three rune-rails, jump the bookshelves, slide under the arches, dodge the carriages

    The golem always gains — skill decides whether your questions come from crashes or from getting caught

    First-try correct answers stack a score multiplier; retries reset it (you keep answering until it's right)

    Sweep ⭐ star trails for bonus XP · marked Beta while we tune the difficulty

  • Power Slope opens to everyone (beta)

    1.2.0

    Our 3D snowboarding game is out of the testing bunker: every player can now drop in from the arcade. It's marked Beta while we tune it, so expect fast updates. Question gates got stricter too — a wrong answer no longer lets you ride on, you keep answering until you get it right (only a first-try correct earns the boost).

    Power Slope: carve a golden-hour mountain, hit kickers and rails, and answer at every gate banner — now playable by everyone, no tester password

    Look for the BETA tag on its arcade tile while we polish it

    Mastery gates: miss a question and you retry it until you lock in the right answer

  • Two new games, real math rendering, and a big round of polish

    1.1.0

    The arcade keeps growing: Zyko Gem brings gem-matching puzzles where right answers earn your moves, ZykoDash returns rebuilt as a one-tap neon runner, and Dragon Flight got a full obstacle overhaul with rival wyverns to outfly. Questions now render real math, popups look right in light mode, and a stack of fixes landed across mobile controls, classes, and teacher tools.

    New game: Zyko Gem — match gems and diamonds to clear the board, with bombs and fever streaks

    ZykoDash rebuilt from scratch as a one-tap neon runner with spikes, saws, lasers, and shield orbs

    Dragon Flight: breathe fireballs freely, dodge storm cells, geysers, and collapsing stalactites, and outfly rival wyverns

    Sky Captain: miss a ring's question and you keep answering new ones until you get one right

    Tumble Squad has a fresh look — gumdrop racers in wizard hats, four maps to vote on, and new cover art

    Power Slope, our snowboarding game, is on the way — look for the Coming soon tile in the arcade

    Math questions now render properly: exponents, square roots, and fractions look like real math

    Light mode: question popups now dim and blur the game behind them, same as dark mode

    Mobile fixes: the soccer joystick no longer hides under the action buttons

    Classes: students join from a cleaner popup, and teachers see each class's subject when assigning

    Launch offer: $3 off every month, applied automatically at checkout — Plus $4.99/mo (standard $7.99), Premium $7.99/mo (standard $10.99) — for as long as the offer runs

    Free 3-week trial of Plus or Premium: claim it from the popup, the pricing page, or your Billing tab — save a card, cancel before it ends and pay nothing

  • Out of beta: Plus and Premium are here

    1.0.0

    ZykoStudy is out of beta, and this is the first release on the stable version scheme (1.0.0) that replaces the Beta 1.x numbering. The Free plan stays free with no card required. Plus and Premium are now available for anyone who wants higher limits, YouTube-to-questions, and the premium games.

    Plus at $7.99/month: 25 study sets, 30 questions per set, 60 AI tutor explanations, and 100-page uploads

    Turn YouTube videos into questions, and add more questions to a set you already made, on both paid plans

    Free stays free: 10 study sets a month, 20 questions per set, 30 AI tutor explanations, and dozens of games

    Manage or cancel your plan yourself any time from your profile's Billing tab

  • New games, an AI tutor, and classroom tools

    Beta 1.1

    A lot has changed since the public beta baseline in May. We expanded the arcade, added an AI tutor you can chat with, AI-graded free-response questions, and a deeper question builder that turns PDFs or pasted notes into a study set, all wrapped in a redesigned home page, progress tracker, and guided tour, plus a full set of tools for teachers.

    Arcade grew with games like ZykoCross, Crystal Descent, ZykoDash, Kickoff Study (3D soccer), Crossover (3D basketball), StudySpin, and Blackjack

    Every game now has a free “Try demo” (no account or study set needed)

    AI tutor redesigned as a chat: ask follow-up questions on any problem in a movable panel that keeps the game in view

    Free-response (FRQ) questions after a game, auto-graded by AI

    Question builder turns uploaded PDFs and pasted notes into a ready-to-play set

    Public library of community study sets you can play or save in one click

    Teacher tools: create classes, assignments, and essay assignments with per-student analytics

    Redesigned progress page with XP, badges, and one-tap practice on your weakest topics

    Refreshed look: a live, playable hero on the home page, new typography, and Zyko, our wizard mascot, explaining answers as you play

    Broad polish: mobile and touch controls, light-mode fixes, and a guided tour for new players
