    Ok, I think we've tracked down that issue and fixed it! Seemed we had a slow memory leak with the "Green Spitting Zombies" which could cause the device to crash after prolonged periods of time. As a test we've had a few devices setup here running survival maps on God mode with an unlimited chainsaw wep and left it running for 36 hours without a crash :) Funny seeing the AI get beyond wave 1500 :p

    The Hoverboard has been setup both ways. Sometimes it will spawn instead of a shield, and sometimes it will spawn alongside other items.

    Hey, when do you plan to fix the issue with the leak totally? In the next patch? In Egypt stage today I crashed again at 90.000.000+ points which makes me sad since there are people with 130.000.000 points already and I would love to beat their scores in this stage. I don't know what it is what causes their Iphones not to crash after 90 million. Since it takes about 1 hour to reach such a high score, I really don't wanna try it again just to fail once more. Thanks anyways for your great customer support. So far. Zombie Master

    Hopefully we have that memory leak licked now, as mentioned above after our fix we've had several devices running non-stop for well over 24+ hours without a crash.

    This fix will go live alongside our next brand new update which also has some cool new features and content in it.... more details on that to come :D As to WHEN, it's a bit of a coin toss at the moment on if it will be just before Christmas, or have to wait until the first week of January after Apple's lockdown.

    Great Michael, thanks for the information. I cannot wait to try out the new patch. Your support is awesome, let me tell you this once more. I hope there will be more cool addons and levels of Age of Zombies in the future. This is by far Halfbrick's best game I have played so far, less luck based than Fruit Ninja or Monster Dash, both great games however, this one has the biggest addiction potential.

    Hey Guys, I hope you will enjoy our THIRD COMPLETELY FREE update for Age of Zombies. I can't believe we managed to get three sweet updates out so quickly, man I've earn't this Christmas beer!

    This is our biggest update so far and whilst it's all pretty sweet I'm most excited for the improvements made to Survival Leaderboards. On the survival map select screen it will automatically download your OpenFeint or GameCentre friends to the on-screen leaderboard so you can easily see where your ranking and who you need to beat!

    Also whilst actually playing each Survival map you can see the next friends score target above your own with even Barry lets you know when you've dominated that friends score.... and who the next poor N00B to target is!

    So let's get some good Touch Arcade leaderboards happening so start posting your GC / OpenFeint names so I can add you.

    GameCentre - Mikasaurus
    OpenFeint - Mikzor

    Nice update, glad to see the flamethrower get a little more firepower, I always thought it was a little meh. Also I'm a huge fan of Halfbrick, but I think multitasking support should be pretty much a staple in all games since iOS 4. I believe only Monster Dash has it currently so hopefully the other games will follow soon.

    Apart from that great job as always! :)

    Now that it is or will be .99, I will get this. Should I bother to get the code from the lite so I can get the hoverboard? Does it impact gameplay or look cool?

    I would get it just for the sake of it. All it does is basically make you go faster for about 30 seconds.
