    HAHAH!! Nice, took the words from my mouth.

    Everyone here is upset for the delay, but, if its not ready then its, simply, not ready......I for one would perfer the dev to finish tweaking the product than recieve it when its kinks are not all worked out.

    Man it's people like you that ruin TA. Some people do game development as a job so they study stuff for games. Some do it as a Hobbie so they are on TA most of the time catching up with the latest. And others would like to be devs so they play the games and so on hoping one day that they can make the big time. So don't you dare say 'go outside' as for all you know it could be raining, to hot, the person could be a paraplegic or he could be a developer that divides his time to research what is going on.

    I doubt most of those. It's very unfortunate if the person is injured but it's not my fault. The other things you mentioned could have been stated better. I don't care about the weather or stuff like that. It's just he was acting like he could only get one game. Plus you can't compare a 3DS update to a new iPhone game. Also try to sound smarter in your arguments.

    Oh come on thats a total overreaction !

    The guy i think just meant 'calm down, have a breath of fresh air outside' kinda thing. Perhaps as i'm old (in my 30's) but i find it laughable when people (or kids) post about 'depending on the screenshots i 'may' buy your game...' type posts when the game could be only 99c !

    Again back in my day games were expensive and you didnt get as much pocket money as you do now. Here we have potentially an epic game for either 99c or $2 and i love reading the way people debate if they'll get it or not. Wont bat an eyelid at getting a $30 or $40 DS game but the second theres a 99c iOS game then decisions decisions ;)

    Yep very bold move, presume its an option (and not what it'll be like for every user !) but a good move. To be honest i'm surprised more games dont have this as more and more people have those cheap 3d glasses from the cinema.

    Yes, it's another unlockable. Collecting all 5 big bits in a level will unlock perspective + free-look camera for that level both when playing and watching replays.

    Somewhere hidden in the game is a pair of 3D glasses, find them and any level that has perspective camera unlocked will also get an additional option to render in red/cyan anaglyph.

    Maybe you should add an IAP option so people can pay to get this without going through the whole game?

    No new characters, although I have been playing around with the idea. There's still a chance that may appear in an update.

    1-bit Ninja takes place in a dream, Ninja is trying to find his GameToy. There are minimal cutscenes; a brief intro and end-of-world screens.

    Unfortunately IAP is a big no-no right now due to a patent troll suing any iOS dev who uses it in their apps, do a google search for "lodsys ios". Sad but true. If the legal implications of IAP get cleared up and there is demand for a paid 'easy-unlock' then I'll certainly add that option to 1-bit Ninja in an update.

    I thought apple was taking a serious stand in this recently. Should be cleared up in that case. I cannot be long, there is no way apple is going to let the extra income they might get from iap fall through the cracks. An unlock all perspectives IAP sounds like a good idea. Some add on characters would work as well.
