My game, which was one of the five selected for the macworld 2010 game challenge, was released on iTunes a few weeks ago, and I have followed it up with a LITE version!

The LITE version is a scaled back version of the main game, in order to show what the game is like and help generate buzz or whatever. The full version is currently in review for an update which adds more levels and easter eggs, but Apple is taking time reviewing it (it has been about 5 days now, becoming a little concerned. Do they try playing all the levels or something?)

the lite version is available here:

If you are so inclined, please download the game and leave comments. (And then buy the full version....heh heh heh)

    5 days is nothing :) before christmas it was 12-18 days on average! and updates always take longer than new releases

    Oh, that's just dandy. I used to beta test professionally so I have already done much of the work they have to do now... and just like then, I am fully aware of the "features*" that the game comes with.

    *"Features" is another way beta testers describe bugs that make it past all the testing and get released in the final build. Luckily, mine aren't bad.

    quantumsheep- Cool man, thanks! Make sure you update when the update gets released- the new levels are awesome difficult but cute cute cute.

    mandance- Beta testing beta testing beta testing. Then more beta testing. If I make one global change I play through the entire game to make sure it works without fault.

    Couldn't agree with you more. I think I spend most of my time just playing my games to make sure they don't bloody break!

    Even then, it's always good to get a second opinion or two. Other people will play your game differently to how you do, and a fresh pair of eyes is always a good idea!

    Had a very productive few hours today with GS. Enjoying myself immensely!

    It's 6:30am. Time to catch a couple of hours sleep I reckon before work...

    (and you know I'll be testing on the journey in to work too - I never rest!)

    QS :O
