    For me, I got my high score twice (and the unique taunting achievement for tieing your high score), and 6 points shy of it once. So I KNOW I can beat it. Only I cant seem too. AARGHHHHH!!!

    So I still play it. However, a harder mode starting at 200 difficulty would be a welcome addition, much like Code Red in Tilt to Live.

    Strange... I didn't know the issue was being reported by customers who purchased and downloaded the game after the update. I thought it was only from customers who purchased it before the updated then updated it.

    Hopefully the upcoming update fixes all the issues. Like I said, I deleted the game and downloaded it again and it seems to be fine for me now. Not sure if you tried that yet.

    Is it just me or is the performance pretty bad considering that it only needs to draw a few fruits on screen? On my 3.gen Touch the framerate isn“t what it could be. I would assume that a game with this graphics should at least crank out 60 fps but right now it looks more like 20 or 25.

    Strangely I have seens videos of it where the fruit went smooth as silk over the screen. :confused:

    I'm certainly not the tech expert on the team, but unfortunately with game development graphics and performance are never as simple as they may seem. We're always doing our best to increase performance though, which brings me to my main point...

    VERSION 1.01.1 IS LIVE!

    After a week of waiting, the much anticipated update which fixes the swipe detection issues is live and kicking. We have downloaded it on a number of devices in the office so far and each has been fine. That's why I'd just like to get a quick bit of help from you guys. Go ahead and download the update, then check back in here to let me know how it went!

    There is no new content in this update, it is merely a bug fix and performance improvement patch. However, now that the technical issues have been addressed we can 100% focus on the new modes and gameplay.

    There will be a teaser screenshot of new content posted here in just a few hours, so keep an eye out for that :)

    And as always, when you have the new update, a great review and rating for iTunes will be a huge help to us! Thanks!

    I find it pretty hard to lose from missing fruit so chances are you are losing due to slashing bombs. Try not to slash downward since it can be unpredictable if a bomb might get tossed up.

    Also try not to get too carried away when slashing away when lots of fruit are on the screen. Sometimes it can be hard to avoid bombs when they try to hide behind large fruit like watermelon or pineapple.

    The controls are a lot more responsive and precise now. :) Can't wait for the latest teaser.

    I find it a little harder to slice with 2 fingers and have them take up the screen so I opt for using my one middle finger.

    What's this? Some careless person accidentally dropped some super secret plans for the next Fruit Ninja update! How unfortunate!

    Arghhh I can't wait.

    I've been spamming facebook with fruit ninja scores. My friends find it amusing that I killed "9 juicy kiwi fruits!" =P

    Within the next 2 weeks. I'd give you a date but I don't know (pending Apple review, etc etc)

    Thanks for the great response, I've been testing the new gameplay and it's pretty gosh darn addicting. Then, when you get a bit exhausted you simply head back to classic mode and enjoy the original in all its glory!

    If everyone could jump on iTunes and give the game a rating for the new version of the game that would be a great help!
