    Yeah, I was afraid it wouldn't get any easier from now on... Never thought I'd get this far, but now that I am, it would be so fun to finish the game.
    That's exactly my issue! I think. I always die within the first five taps or so (thankfully. It would be even worse if this hard part was at the end of a tough level). I wondered if it was my aging device or something.

    I have been enjoying our dance around the leaderboard :) (even though the leaderboards for a game like this with fixed scores are just a measure of how far you are, it's still kind of fun to watch.)
    What level are you now? I'm at 92, but still have less than perfect scores on a lot of previous levels.

    Hi Lena, I just finished level 94 which felt really good, I first thought it was impossible but you just need to go on and finally I did it, but its nerve wrecking. Level 92 was the hardest for me so far, restarted that level almost 300 times.

    Awesome! : )

    Are iCloud support and a "true" endless mode still in the works?

    Damn... Time to keep checking the App Store for updates every day/hour from now on. Did Apple give you an ETA by any chance?

    Yes, iCloud will surely be in the next update. You have my word :p We just had some concern before starting. Like which plugin to buy ect.

    As for the Endless, it is in the work, but it will take some time as you can guess, it's a bit complicated with the kind of level design we have to put random elements everywhere and make it work :p

    No ETA, last time it was kinda fast tho, shorter then usual, but I will keep you updated when it's released. You can give me your personal email if you want haha

    Checking several times a day for that update... Will it be pushed as soon as it's updated, or will you need to press a button first?

    Oh, on a side note - for anyone who likes this game I would highly recommend Dustforce (not on iOS, sadly). Fantastic platformer with a similarly great feel to Bobbing and some damn satisfyingly hard levels.

    Yessir, but it's still fully functional if you own it.

    Ah, of course. I just grabbed Appzapp, it's apparently got alerts for updates, too. Yay!

    I use the TA app for notifications. =oP

    Whenever a game is getting an update, I pop it on my watch list and turn the notifications on. I know it's not updated to the minute, but it's quick enough =oP

    I've never used those kinds of apps because I don't wait for sales or anything, so I didn't even realise they tracked updates. Thanks guys!


    It's nice to see over 2100 players on the leaderboards now! Gotta wonder though - that score that has unseated me from my place of power... Is it legitimate? The only way I can see it being legitimate is if the internal testing version you guys use submits to the same leaderboard as us mere mortals... But that's not fair! :(

    Yes, it is legitimate and your deduction is right. It's a testing device who's not connected to the sandbox for I don't know what reason. So, your throne is taken for some days :p

    But if the new update adds 40 levels, wouldn't that make the new max 1,850,000? That score is well beyond that... So either you're testing well beyond the update we're about to see, or there's something in the update you're not telling us about!

    (Does the Endurance mode score add to the total score at this stage?)

    Yes, Endurance mode add up in the Global Score. We added like 8 leaderboard too, so if it work this time everything will be separated and one combined.
