This app is great, y’all should make more.

I love this app but wish it had more, y’all should at least add Unconformities like Angular Disconformities, Nonconformities, Disconformities, and also the basic principles of Geology like Superposition, Lateral Continuity, Faunal succession, and maybe history, intrusions, exclusions, etc

I always wonder why apps what entire video games but no larger, full educational apps like you could get on CD software in the 90s.

Y’all should do a fuller, larger app with this stuff, it has potential but apparently of society values nice games over education

Difficult Concepts Demystified!

Folds and faults are a 3D concept over Deep Time that is beyond the limits of a 2D textbook. Now you can carry a set of clear explanations and demonstrations into the field. Combine this with other Tama apps and Geology becomes a dynamic subject!
