Congratulations! Now you can get to work on the iPhone version so I can actually buy it. :D

An eventual iPhone port was always in the plan, and we are keeping a close eye on sales to ensure the viability (and priority) of bringing to iPhone. So far it is looking promising, and hopefully now we are "up in the charts" we can stay there.

But just to make sure, you should hit up all your iPad owning friends to buy it ;)

And, done. I'll send a PM :)


For those that missed out due to PalaceBrother's snappy response, but want a shot at a Zen Puzzle Garden promo code, stay tuned to our Facebook and Twitter feeds (www.facebook.com/pikpokgames and www.twitter.com/pikpokgames) because we should be giving away more codes at one of those two places today.

Thanks Mario!

I feel foolish, but I actually misread it as being an iPhone title. I'm holding off on an iPad until the next revision, so please feel free to solicit more bad Confucius jokes. I won't redeem it or give it away.

Okay, Zen Puzzle Garden for iPad mini comp back on.

Promo code for the first poster who wants the game and has an iPad that can throw me a "Confucius say" joke :)

Hey guys I just wanted to let you know that I was featured in the First Developer Spotlight over at AppUnderdogs, a new iphone site catering towards finding hidden gems in the App Store.

I talk a lot about the development process and how I was able to make my game Shelly the Shell Master in 6 weeks with no prior development experience. So I think it might be pretty interesting for those of you thinking about diving into development for iOS. Of course I'd be more than happy to answer any follow up questions you might have.

Here's the link:

I'm very impressed that you pulled it off in 6 weeks.. now I'm inspired to code my own game.. I have a comp sci background and just plain lazy as to why I haven't done anything with iOS, yet :)

Great job!!

I'll do that.

Thanks! And that included the time to learn to code (and more importantly learn to draw and animate) and also working my full time job, I don't think I slept anything during that time. However note I didn't use Xcode proper, but Corona, that uses Lua, which is much more newb friendly than Obj C.
 
Holy cow.. I beat the God King in Infinity Blade for the first time at level 16 on my 4th or 5th bloodline.. Is that supposed to happen?

I think most people beat him on their 3rd bloodline, so it's within expectations. :p

This list will be updated constantly (if it'll find some success) with the new profiles always added to the bottom of the list.
Send me a pm when you want to be added to the list if I haven't noticed your post.
Send me a pm if you want to be taken off the list or to update your profile.
The list will be posted only upon request and once in a while, something reasonable so to not make it redundant.


Nice.

oh man I must suck then, I'm on my 4th bloodline with no end in sight yet... I just can't get used to predicting where the hits will come from...

I'll tell you one thing, I find parrying to be fun as hell in IB.. but whenever I reach the God King, I ultimately get too scared to attempt anything other than constant dodges for the entire fight :lol
 
Diablohead said:
Looks real good, is dead space iOS the full original game or is it like a spin off smaller selective cuts like game?, think resi 4 mobile.
set between dead space 1 and 2. so basically its not resi 4 mobile which is terirble.

How about...

Confucius say "Man who run in front of car get tired."
 
Asphalt 4 is on 59p sale but I do suggest passing on the game, it's really wasn't play tested well enough in the later half of the game imo.
 
So when are we getting Swords and Sworcery for iphone/ipad?

Also will it be an app that can be played on both machines? Or will we have to buy it twice (please not this!).

Honestly, heal spells saved my ass. I had to use two to get past him, two Super Attacks, and I only got one successful parry break. The rest were dodges. :lol

I dodge almost exclusively cause parry seems really unpredictable. Heal spell is awesome.

Not really a spoiler just in case.

Does the God King ever reach a max level? I think I've beaten him like 3 times now so he should be level 200
 
So I bought Pinball HD for iPhone, and it says it supports Gamecenter, but it has no leaderboards or achievements. What's the deal? :lol
 
Dante said:
Man Deadspace looks pretty awesome on there. Surprised the youtube vid had so many dislikes :/

Have you seen the reactions to it on GAF? People are either angry or terrified of iOS being a legitimate gaming platform.
 
Anyone have Perfect Cell? I know that it didn't get the best of reviews when it came out, but I just watched a video and it seemed cool.
 
Mario said:
Done. Will PM you the code :)

3 more Zen Puzzle Garden codes are being given away on www.twitter.com/pikpokgames over the next 3 days.

Zen Puzzle Garden is pretty awesome. I bought it soon after it came out. The game looks and plays great on the iPad. Very nice job! The only difficult I'm having is that the later levels get pretty tricky. All part of the fun though I guess ;)

Great to hear you like it. It has had very positive reviews so far and continues to creep up the charts. Very happy with the game's performance so far, though we have a very long way to go with sales before we break even on the dev.

The DLC level pack has a mix of different difficulties I believe. Skipping around a bit might help you catch onto a new technique which might help solve a level you are stuck on too.

+1 to the pile of people asking for an iphone port

Hang on, are you the same guys who made Gripshift?
 
I just saw Chopper 2 added a synchronized save progress between iPhone and iPad in its last update through Game Center. That is an awesome feature.

It needs to become a standard for all games.

Yes. Sidhe is the console/PC side that did Gripshift and Shatter. PikPok is the iPhone/iPad/Android side.

Ah, I didn't know that. I figured you had switched companies or something.

Any chance Gripshift or Shatter come to the iPhone?

Jet Car Stunts makes me want a GripShift iOS port like... Now. :(

Oops looks like I was lttp in bringing that up...

Shatter has a good chance. However, we don't think the GripShift controls and gameplay would map easily to touchscreen.

The producer/designer of GripShift wants to do future racing stuff for iPhone though (he was a dev on Wipeout XL, NGen Racing, Quantum Redshift, and Speed Racer also).

I approve.

That sounds great. I am also probably one of the few people who really liked Quantum Redshift. That game is so underrated.

Give it to me!! ...please!

Full soundtrack too, file size be damned!

sad if you ask me. time to get used to seeing apple associated with gaming. tens of millions of people on the ios platform is too hard to ignore for any game developer.
