    The game looks good :)
    Me and my brother have been both waiting for an Angry Birds clone.
    Has it been submitted yet?

    I wanted to ask if there is going to be a Cannon Cadets Gold later?
    I don't really want to buy the game on release and then have to pay for DLC.
    I'd rather just get the premium version from get go.

    Yes, it should be soon!

    To address the "Little Metal Ball Gold" issue - no, there will not be a Cannon Cadets Gold - the only reason its that way with LMB is because the original LMB game was developed by Debacle Software. XMG bought LMB and part of the team that made it (including the designer, who is now designing the Cannon Cadets worlds). Apple does not make it easy to transfer ownership of an app from one person to another, so it still has the Debacle name on it even though it belongs to XMG.

    We continued to develop LMB after the acquisition, with a ton of new levels that made it a $2.99 value game. This is the version called LMB Gold. We didnt want the people who already purchased the original title to have to re-buy the gold app to get the extra levels, so we made it an in-app purchase for $1.99

    Complicated, I know, but we really wanted to try and take care of everyone!

    Think you have what it takes to be a cannon cadet?

    It takes guts, determination, a love for fun, and a pretty hard head. Can you stack up to our team?

    [​IMG]

    Codename: RocketBoy (Team Leader)
    Home Planet: Hauska
    Favorite Color: Red
    Likes: Building rockets, Playing with friends, Yelling “Yee ha!” as loud as he can.
    Dislikes: Monkey Fleas, Metal Buildings, Cannons that Backfire

    Our hero began his life on the planet Hauska as a regular, happy little boy who spent his days climbing trees with his friends, building toy rockets and generally having fun. But when the evil monkey Gordo arrived on his planet replacing fun and happiness with despair and misery, the little boy knew he had to act. He built a rocket powerful enough to fly around the galaxy and strong enough to blast through the cages the evil monkey and his robot minions were using to imprison their captives. And with that, our hero emerged as RocketBoy and began his crusade to bring the fun back into the world. As he travels from planet to planet he is recruiting new heroes into his team, the Cannon Cadets, an elite force with the mission of restoring fun to the galaxy and showing Gordo how to be happy again.

    Check out Rocketboy in the upcoming game Cannon Cadets, by XMG Studio!

    An angry birds clone, but one that looks like it might have some personality and innovation of its own, which is unusual. Looking forward to it. What the launch price?

    Did you know... Angry Birds is actually not the first game of this type to be released into the app store? Check out an app called "Crush the Castle". Angry Birds just made it better, and we hope that Cannon Cadets will bring this genre to the next level with moving objects, complex chain reactions, etc.

    As for price, we will make sure it is competitive!

    I hope this makes it out soon. Also thinking about picking up little metal ball for the iPad.

    Do it. I tried to hold off for a while but the itch was too great :eek: LMB is great on the iPad as you can see so much more of the screen :)

    LMB is an excellent app, get it. Fun, fast paced and addicting. I can't wait for cannon cadets though. After 3 starring all of angry birds(to date) and both flash versions of crush the castle i need to feed the addiction!!

    Did you know the level designer for LMB is the same person that designed the levels for Cannon Cadets, Michael Brown!

    Codename: Pop
    Home Planet: Sorriso
    Favorite Color: Blue
    Likes: Helping his fellow Cadets beat Gordo, and of course, Fun
    Dislikes: Bananas, Robots and Eye Patches

    On the planet Sorriso, RocketBoy rescues a funny little
    guy named Pop. Pop can be hard headed, but all his friends say that
    he is three times as fun as anyone else they know. When Pop joins
    RocketBoy and RocketGirl the trio officially form the Cannon Cadets.
    Gordo is still traveling through the galaxy leaving a trail of
    unhappiness behind him, but the Cadets have him running scared.
