BlueStreak Education, Inc. is thrilled to announce the relaunch of the BlueStreak Math student platform. The new student platform will provide an enhanced user experience and better performance.
“The current student platform didn’t allow us to quickly build, deploy and develop new features in a meaningful way. As BlueStreak Education continues to grow we needed a platform that allowed for agile development that could keep up with our customers' needs while providing an unmatched user experience.
We have spent a considerable amount of resources to build our new platform which will position BlueStreak Math as a leader in the education industry.”
Catherine Duncan, CEO
Mitch Meyer, CTO

Quality Settings
In the game across all devices there exists a quality setting that can be changed at any point in the game. The tech requirements listed above estimate the requirements to run the game in low quality mode.
For an optimal high quality performance, improvements on these specs will be required. 2GB of RAM or higher is required to play in high quality mode as well as a more modern processor such as the Apple A8 or the Intel Core i7.
Generally, mid to upper level modern computers and tablets will be able to run this game in high quality mode. Altering the quality settings does not affect the gameplay or academic function in any way. Only special effects, background images and interface details are affected.
