    Awesome that you'll be connecting the in-game achievements to Game Center :)

    About the cloud saving: I've heard Eli, Jared, and Mike talk about this on the podcast before. Apparently it can be a difficult thing to implement, but the best way to go about it is to get it in there, and have a button in the game where you can manually transfer data to the cloud rather than it loading automatically when you switch devices. I guess it's more reliable that way. And yes, it would transfer max scores, unlocks, the whole nine. It would be like playing the same exact game between say, your iPad and iPhone.

    I have a question about high scores from the Missing Manual:

    High Score:
    There are a few tricks to getting to the tops of the leaderboard. To get the highest score, you need a combination of:

    Weakest ship for a given world (can be fully upgraded). You’re totally rewarded for your pain and suffering).
    Don’t use a shield
    Don’t use a special weapon
    Don’t lose ship power


    The "don't use a special weapon". Should I avoid all power-ups that appear during gameplay, like the green "P" block that fills your health, and the one that increases firepower?

    Wow. Thank you. The controls are definitely an area I put a large focus on.

    I've had a few folks mention background music, this is something I had in there for a time but it seemed everything got annoying after a while. I may post a few things here. Is there any sort of voting system I can include here for feedback?

    GREAT Question, I need to update that manual to clarify this.

    - Grabbing the "P" has no negative impact on your score, however, if you're low on power and you grab the "P", you'll start earning a little more per alien (as if you had never lost power) so you definitely want to grab it.

    - Just picking up other items (like a shield or laser) and not using them has no negative impact.

    - The bullet doubler that automatically kicks in when you grab it will not negatively impact your score. Feel free to grab and use that to get through the wave of aliens quicker.

    Promo codes! :-d

    Hey Guys,

    Here are 5 promo codes for Galactic Nemesis. Feel free to use them for yourself or to send to a friend. DM if you've been unduly harmed by this free promotion. I'll be sure to find a way to make up for it, maybe I can come clean your house, wash your car, or take out your trash. :-D

    Please just leave a message with which promo code you're using so people can avoid trying to use the same one. Ideally limit it to one per user to spread the love.

    - Charlie

    Hate to break it to you guys, but you're still are still getting beat by Fauxlina. She's actually a friend of my Nephew's, and she's none too happy about someone is besting her in "Obsolescense. I think she's out for blood!

    Full disclosure, she did NOT get a pre-release of the game, but my nephew did tell her about it the day it came out. She's been in beast mode ever since, and found a bug that made me release the 1.01 update (which is why her name is also in the credits / settings page in 1.01 but not in 1.0)!
