    You should play Smooth Criminal by MJ or Alien Ant Farm in the background, of course that's copyright infringement.

    How were sales on skewrl?

    So far mediocre, but we haven't updated the price or done any real promotion yet, we're still waiting for Apple to approve the update with the right icon before we get serious into that.

    Anyways, things have been quiet in the topic today - we're finally getting rid of the programmer art but it isn't quite yet at a point where there's a lot to show that you'd get from a screenshot. But we have a new video of it being developed. I think with this video, we have reached the next level of video quality compared to previous ones, which is cool :D

    Hope I'm not to late to drop in to give a short honest review on the game skewrl. The game is really simple as you need to only tap on a branch of the tree and the skewrl will go on it automatically. The game also gives you a unique way on telling you how to do this or that then merely putting out an instruction. I really like that feature a lot. The game also is addictive as you get that feeling where you get the feeling to beat your previous score. And when you finally do, you get another urge to beat that score.

    Anyways, the game also proves to work really smooth on the touch 4g. However, the game has some space to improve on. The skewrl would be cooler if it had a customizing tab where your score can get you items on the virtual store. Also when the skewrl jumps, give it an animation if jumping instead of the skewrl just looking like it is levitating to another branch. Which reminds me, the game has a variety of obsticales, "enemy" aka the spiders and the bees, etc. But to get back to my point, give the skewrl more life. Oh and one last thing, this game should be worth around .99 and should put out sales on it to make it freebie. The game concludes with me saying good time wasting game.


    Note: I am sorry for the lack of organized sentences. Trying to finish this review and beat my measly 6k score. The name of my game center is beshio btw so :p

    This is a funny & interesting thread, imo. Great going Broken Kings! Good luck on all your projects. Castle Conflict is great. I need to reinstall it and play again.

    I'll try your games. I'm curious if you can make a nice game so quickly.

    Hey Frej, sorry, it's supposed to be $0.99. We've been waiting to turn the price ot the right price because some sites catch that and post it to there twitter/etc., and as you may have noticed, the icon is incorrect. We're trying not to draw attention to it for that reason ... might be backfiring though :S

    A lot less programmer art in this screenshot, which is admittedly a little bit dated.

    To be honest, looks like just a whole mess of pictures crammed. Looks promising though.

    Programmer art is the bane of coherent imagery. It gets more and more comprehensible by the minute over here :D

    I like how you are really active with fellow consumers and players. Just saying because I think it is true.

    Thanks :D We try, sometimes even when we're up late scrambling for a deadline.

    Speaking of which - this image is a bit more coherent than the last:

    And here's another one of the characters who will come shopping at your store:
