    Hello Atomic Alec

    Any chance you can take the road that Infinite Dreams took with Jelly Defence and bring the Fieldrunners franchise to the Mac platform, particularly with the recent macbook pro retina display debut which would bring your minions greater life. Otherwise I'am excited to hear the price and the release date, and look forward to both the iPad and iPhone versions however you should take the universal path (for iphone and iPad users) in the next the field runners update which i hope to see.

    Hey AtomicAlec, is Game Center going to be incorporated in Fieldrunners 2?? If so, can you leak any of the achievements to us?! ;)

    Hey guys! Quick heads up that some folks from the team here will be livestreaming Fieldrunners 2 at 6PM Eastern Time today! It will be on Twitch.TV, so come on by, chat about the game, and challenge our skills :)

    Here's the link: http://www.twitch.tv/fieldrunners2

    Hope to see you there!


    Hey there! We're definitely looking at bringing the game to other platforms after the iOS versions are complete, so stay tuned!

    GameCenter is definitely incorporated into Fieldrunners 2 for achievements and leaderboards :) I'd share some of the achievements, but I unfortunately don't have the list in front of me at the moment. I'm sure they will be leaked soon enough :)

    It will be out soon. We're working to make sure that the game is absolutely perfect for the iPad and it's retina display. We'll keep people posted as development continues. One thing is for sure: The game will look absolutely gorgeous :)

    Just finished our trailer last night. If you haven't seen it, click the link below:

    http://youtu.be/vmVSAolte-8?hd=1

    Can't really give an ETA, unfortunately - it would be complete speculation and I don't want to start any rumors. This is our top priority at the moment, though, and we'll fill you in with solid info as soon as we get it. With console games, you'll have a super long dev cycle, finish the game, and then wait months before launching. iOS games are very different - as soon as it's done, you ship it. So estimating things like launch dates are complete guesswork... as we've discovered from our own experiences :)

    We'll keep you up to date on the latest info!

    For a detailed explanation of what's going on with the iPad version:

    At this point, we've recreated most of the artwork for the higher resolution iPad Retina display, so we are getting closer. Designers have been working in parallel to add a few new features, and the engineers have been working on iCloud, as well as new features. QA should be able to begin checking the game for bugs after the art is done and 25% of the new features have been added. I'm anticipating 1-2 weeks of QA time and 1-2 weeks for Apple's review process. Fortunately, a lot of this stuff can happen in parallel, but I still don't have a precise date. Stay tuned!

    Let me know if you have any other questions about anything and everything :)

    Hey guys!

    The update just went live, so take a look and let me know what you think. We did some rebalancing, added Game Center support, fixed Curious Gorge and Bizarre Bazaar, and we also added a new map :)

    Hope to hear your thoughts soon!

    You guys rock :D

    Excellent news! Thanks for the feedback. Let me know if you have any other thoughts.

    It's so close! I wish I could say more, but it's literally right around the corner. You'll hear more in the next two weeks. Sorry for the delay, but I appreciate your patience. The iPad version will be here well before we ever anticipated :)

    Wish I knew all the information that was in this thread prior to purchase. I was so excited about Fieldrunners 2 that when I heard it was out, I assumed it was universal/had a version ALREADY out for the higher res iPad variants. And in my state, I only saw one field runners 2 available and clicked buy. To my surprise when I opened it up on my iPad it needed a 2x button x.x sucks because I actually don't even have an iPhone, let alone a smart phone. Sigh, that was nearly all my months quota too (try not to go over5-10 bucks a month on apps). Sounds like everyone's having fun though, I was so bummed at my noob mistake I haven't played since release lol.

    Sorry about that! Launching on one platform at a time seems to throw some folks off. Since you don't have an iPhone and seem bummed about your purchase, you should definitely drop Apple's Billing Support team a line and ask them for a refund. They should be able to help you out. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    In other news, we're having a little Fieldrunners Photoshop competition on our Facebook page...

    Let me know if you folks have any other questions :)

    Thanks for the info, but it's cool, I was more bummed about my own stupidity/carelessness. But I couldn't help it, I was excited for this game :p, I'll probably hold off on playing till you release the iPad version though, since I don't tend to replay games from the start, and since the iPad is on a separate release (if I understand it correctly) I may or may not be able to sync between the two. So I figure playing the iPad version in all it's glory will be the only way to do justice. I will just have to 'fast' other releases for that month lol
