    Hello people!

    Just a heads up. We've put Bean's Quest on sale for the holiday season. It's dropped from $2.99 to 99c

    And a quick update on our future plans. We're releasing another two worlds but we delayed it to polish further and do some extended beta testing. Here's a bunch of gameplay footage from all the existing and new worlds:

    Have a great holiday season everyone!

    Just for the record: this is the first sale on this game since release in July. And if you don't pick this up at 99c... You don't like video games.

    Well, I waited long enough for a sale before I picked it up for full price. ;) I absolutely did not think the game was priced realistically at release for the amount of content, and promises for planned updates on the app store are cheap. But you definitely came through, and how. And most relevantly of course: great game.

    My watchlist finally paid off! I just picked this up tonight and had so much fun with it. Played it 3 hours straight perfecting world 1. I managed to tie the leader for 90 total jumps :D

    Another great platformer that I've been waiting on. Between this, Terra Noctis, Sonic CD and Sonic 4 (all of which I picked up yesterday), I'm in platformer heaven!

    Wow Matt, you've really mastered the jump pars incredibly quickly!! Seriously impressive.

    For anyone struggling with the jump par achievements on the first world we have put together a speed run video. You can see some of our artist's pro jump skills in this video :cool:

    Thanks! Only because it's such a fun game that I've played it for hours and hours the last few days :)

    That video was really cool, it was like watching replays of my level runs :p

    Precision, persistence and patience haha

    For Crystal Peaks, I'm most proud of my 23 jumps on level 3. For Sky Ruins, it has to be the 11 jumps I got on level 9.

    Just a regular jump =) Gotta be right on the corner when you make contact on the platform you jump off. Keep trying!

    So I see you can hide the level select screens and play a zoomed out level there... just for fun? Any point in getting all the jewels or killing all the bad guys?

    Great game, by the way. I love a good and challenging plat former.

    Yes, by collecting all jewels on the level select screen you get a 5-point achievement for each of the 3 worlds.

    I tried for ages. But after reading your post I done it on the second try!!.

    Dear Mr. Dev, not an important feature request but it would be nice to get an indicator alert when you have completed one of the achievments (all jewels, jump par etc). I know you can see it on the level summary screen, but would be great to get a sound and graphical effect to point that out. Just adds to the satisfaction :p
