Yeah and I'm pretty sure it had something along the lines of 'Coming to iPhone/iDevices soon in Spring'. This might be a cheap yet efficient promotion campaign by CAVE to generate hype before an actual release Impatient players will cry, howl and yell 'When's DEATHSMILES coming out!?' so that even the least interested individuals will know the game and hopefully buy the game out of curiosity.
I'm just as excited as the rest of you but I believe they made a statement that the quake in Japan did cause some delays. Might have read that wrong but I wouldn't worry if it takes a little longer to get released, just sit back and know that once it is released we will be playing a great shooter.
Sweet, thanks for the heads up. And for those of us too lazy to click through to watch it on YT's site: From the trailer, it looks like the iPhone Mode offers the ability to customize your character with equipment. I'm guessing it will give the game a slight RPG-ish feel to it. That's such a great idea. Keep up the good work, Cave.
You are not alone in this... Anyway, the official tweet says the release date would be announced "soon". With the new trailer, it may be close to release but I would not hold my breath.
Some more info from their blog: http://caveworlden.wordpress.com/2011/06/14/new-deathsmiles-video-is-here-sorry-for-the-long-wait/ It sounds like the new iPhone mode is playable only with the new character Tiara (unless I'm misunderstanding something). And you can purchase equipment using gold dropped from enemies, as well as find equipment while playing the levels.
I think I'm the first one onthis site to discover CAVE's new blog post. Probably because I've been checking the site multiple times a day since February. Official release date is July 7th. Here's the link to their site. Would love some TouchArcade love; I'm such a huge fan that I joined this site ony because its users and staff gave CAVE the respect they deserved!
