    Yep, everything will transfer over seamlessly -- current achievements, etc should instantly transfer over to Game Center as well.

    It's awesome :) just about the perfect game now.

    It wiped my save data though, everything is locked again, except for the first area, and the new one, pond.

    Hmm, I take it back, it's showing up as universal when I actually look at the app page, but not in the search results yet. Maybe the latter take longer to update.

    veerrry interesting.
    I had one saved game (only round 2, I did it to test), and it was on office. with the update to 1.1, all of the levels are unlocked except for office.
    interesting.
    but good, because it probably means that people will not be able to use saved games from 1.0.1...

    Strange, all of the levels were unlocked when I updated the game, but the game crashed while I was playing a level and now most of the levels are locked.

    Also, only one of my completed awards shows a picture.
    They are marked correctly in GameCenter though.

    early impressions

    I have only played about 3 rounds on kitchen hard, but these are my early impressions of the update:

    first off, what things carried over and what didn't:

    bug: as far as levels carrying over see my above post.
    all of my awards carried over. though all my heroes now show as "level 9" instead of "level 10", but maybe that is a balance change.
    bug: the insectopidia did not carry over it's unlocked bugs.
    all of the equipment is still unlocked with an exception:
    BUG: on ant, Burrow Mines is not unlocked: it says "This equipment is locked. To unlock it you must earn 2500 total experience points with Ant (9294% complete)." on Beetle Squash Em is not unlocked. It says the same message with 2500points/6226% complete. and on Spider Poison Cloud is not unlocked. it also has the same message with 2500points/6439%.

    random impressions:
    love the new icon...
    the new abilites seem really cool.
    (imagine Beetle with wrench, shockwaves, colossus, adrenalin, and berserk. yikes!!)
    I can't wait to play pond and unlock the new turret. speaking of turrets I haven't tested the new lazer animation yet.
    I like the new big green "plus" buttons. I also like the new clicking sound effect.
    I like the new default turret location on kitchen.
    important: the bigger rewards for quests is a huge improvement.

    bug:
    both times I have played, within a couple minutes the game will temporarily freeze, and then lose sound permanently.

    I know there is a bunch more stuff I am forgetting. I'll post more later.

    Definitely let us know about any quirky errors with your save game data... so levels are strangely locked or unlocked, and Pureskill you said your achievements aren't showing in the awards tabs? Are they saying you have yet to complete them, or is it just a blank square?

    Sigh... we tested transferring data for millions of years. Worst case scenario (I know its a drag), but you might have to start a new profile if you're getting strange things with equipment unlocks and stuff...

    I held off buying this game due too the fact I play most games on my iPad now . So I was pleased too see this update arrive with Universal and I have one word too say and that is WOW this game is awesome . Great job and many thanks to the development team on bringing this game to my iPad I can see this taking up a lot of my time :)
