    The update is now live (at least I'm seeing it, may take longer to get out everywhere). :D

    I forgot to mention that this update also includes iCloud support and saving in Endless Mode. I know a lot of folks really wanted both of those. :)

    iCloud support? That sells it for me. Nothing I hate more than games which don't backup save progress. Most people have more than one device and get a new one every 1-2 years so if you are into a game and need to delete and reinstall it at a later date you want to be able to restore progress.

    Eh?
    I'm not saying it's not worth the price. The current price is fine. Just know that occasionally, a price drop can boost sales and potential customers who had their beady eyes on other games (of which there are many) may just look this way. Then the Dev gets a sale he otherwise wouldn't have had !

    Congrats with the update. It's great that the Dev is still bringing more content to this fairly old game!

    Oo sounds good, I wish it could reclaw my old save back though : ( but I'm sure I'll play through again at some point anyway as even when I was grinding the game for currency it didn't feel like a grind.

    So we've gotten some reports that the upgrade has wiped some people's progress. Anyone updated successfully? During testing we did upgrade testing and had no issues, so we're trying to track down what the problem might be. Anyone who's upgraded, please let me know what device, iOS version, and whether it successfully brought your progress over. Thanks!

    WOW!!!

    Mind=blown.

    I'm totally diggin the new update. I was pretty surprised to see that I hadn't already bought the coin doubler, so I went ahead and snagged it... I might wind up buying a couple of coin packs too. =oP

    The new stages are definitely cool, but having the new traps is awesome. I just re-installed this about a week ago and am about half way through the third original world, but now I've gone back and started playing from 1-6 just to take advantage of the new traps... build em up a bit (it's almost like a sequel...). =oP
    The daily challenge is also a fantastic addition... I can totally see this as something I get really into after completing the game again. =oD

    Anyway... as we've kind of come to expect, Grumpyface knocks it out of the park with this update. =oD

    THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

    **edit**

    oh yeah, updated, no issues, kept my progress... iPhone 5, iOS 7.1.2 not jailbroken

    ^^ They're not always there - just when a new Adult Swim game is released, and I haven't seen any since I bought the currency doubler...

    That's technically not an "ad" - it's a cross-promotion. And yeah as synthetic said, it's only when we release a new game.

    Hey all,

    First of all: thanks synthetic and others for the support and love as always! We were very excited to go back to Doombad, a game that we love, and add some fun new additions we thought everyone would enjoy (and that we wanted to see ourselves!) As always we had a great time working with the nice folks at Adult Swim!

    Now for the bad news: unfortunately we've discovered that the Free To Slay version is NOT correctly retaining save states when updating to the newest version of the game. The FTS version will temporarily be pulled off the App Store until a fix is available.

    If you already have the new Free to Slay version (or if your device has automatically downloaded it), the upcoming fix update will still be able to recover your full save data as long as you don't progress in the new version of the game -- so for now, FTS users should hold off on playing the update until we can get a fix out (which hopefully will not be longer than a few days -- I will update this thread as well as our twitter when it's available http://www.twitter.com/grumpyface ).

    Very sorry for this unfortunate issue, FTS players. Thanks again all

    Endless mode still broken. It drops the 8th trap and the save fails a lot of the time.
