    I love Shenandoah Studio. Excellent game and stellar customer service. They always response to suggestions and comments. Battle of the Bulge is one of my favourite IOS games along with KODP. Yeah! David Dunham.

    It has been localized in spanish and japanese, i hope it will be in french! I've bought it the first day, and after a few try, i decided to wait. It's a good news, i hope they'll have time and money to do it.

    We are glad you guys are enjoying version 2.0. We really wanted to bring the experience to iPhone so more people can enjoy it.

    Also wanted to share this funny trailer. It's our intern's on-screen debut:

    I get it has gone universal and some things like the map would have to be different, but I would have thought most of the assets like counters and buttons could have been reused, backgrounds remade widescreen and used for both, that type of thing. The size increase is like a duplication of everything?

    And squabs: binary? Really? I'm no programmer that's for sure, but binary? And two lots of it? Thought apps were written in code.

    I'm with September, would've thought the assets would be shared. Many other apps just get a command line that says to detect the device screen resolution and go from there. It may well be that the game was too intricate to share assets and so had to be redone completely.

    No, ios universal binaries don't share assets, they are more costly to develop due to this, the programmers can reuse graphics and code, but it is essentially two apps in one

    And binary = compiled source code eg c++ => machine executable code

    Hmmm. I thought my skill was pretty good on BOB when I was playing it on the ipad non stop. After a long break and getting back into it on the iphone I now suck. Not sure if I can take the humiliation of an official smashing
