    Hi Matt, no, we are not intending to make shovelware. Part of the challenge of making a game in 3 days is making it feel polished and fun, and we think we accomplished that with Skwerl. In fact, I am starting to believe that fast iterations like this may be key to us really being experimental with gameplay, and force us to focus purely on the fun instead of getting involved in all the noise that happens. We are admittedly aiming for a more casual audience than a core audience with these projects. If you are not anti-casual, I invite you to try Skwerl out. If you are interested, PM me and I will send you a promo code :)

    As for the price - please ignore that - it's actually going to be $0.99. Due to Apple approving us much faster than we expected (in 3 days instead of 2 weeks, which was how long it took last time I submitted something) our app wasn't properly set up, including an incorrect price and incorrect iTunes Store icon. Unfortunately, Apple currently doesn't let us change that icon without submitting an update (another change since last time I did this ;) ), so we did that with the proper icon and are awaiting re-approval. The price there will stay as it is until the update goes live, because I know there are a lot of sites out there that track when price changes, and I don't want to draw attention to the app until it's all correct.

    It's actually just a weekend, but thank you :)

    I think this has been done :p

    Is there a reason you would like a sequel instead of another update? We're planning another campaign, although this one will like cost $0.99 because we're not making enough money on sales to justify any more free updates. We're also planning on adding a multiplayer update with Game Center. This will happen most likely shortly after Furious Tactics' first release is submitted to the app store.

    Redeemed XYYJP4WRN9WE. Will post my thoughts about it soon.

    However, you should change the icon. Doesn't match the app and made me think about castle conflict.

    About the icon: Which is why this is an unofficial release. We didn't think we'd get approved so soon.

    You know how you know a game is well underway? when it has programmer art. Free promo code to the first user to guess what the fun this game is!

    The artists are furiously drawing away, but in the meantime here's some MORE programmer art to help make the guessing easier! I know, the only thing better than programmer art is MORE programmer art.

    This morning we all gathered on the couch at 10am to discuss our next game. After 10 ideas, we settled on one called "Smoothie Operator". Here's the video:
