    99c... this is AMAZING.

    Slick, stunning, eye candy.

    Love this. Buy this. If you don't have enough money, sell your iDevice... oh wait... well find the money somehow!

    NICEEE! I've been waiting for this since he submitted it in august. Haven't played geodefence since I beat the first in July. I just jumped on it the second I got the link on TA and got it over 3g and now am playing it on the train :)

    sooo much to play now with this, scribblenauts, nhl10 and other great iPhone games wowzers!

    Thanks david!

    I think you got your systems messed up ;) For what its worth, I am looking forward to that also. Looks absolutely amazing (as does that new Mario and Luigi series RPG).

    If you like open-field TD games, geoDefense Swarm is the best you will get. Period.

    I used to think Fieldrunners was the best. Imagine that!

    McDonalds! French Fries anyone?
    At that place... with those... people...
    Ok heres the equation:

    GeoDefense = x

    x = awesome

    GeoDefense Swarm = z

    z = x2

    z = Pure Awesomeness

    Sorry it so confusing, i just had to.

    Man I hate that! I remember when minigore came out, I was 2 cents away from getting it, so I ran to the nearest walmart and purchased a $15 dollar iTunes card... talk about desperate!

    question...in fieldrunners on the maps with two entrances and exits the guys coming from one entrance will only take one exit and not the other, is that the case with swarm as well?

    Nope, don't believe it is. Enemies always take the path of least resistance. And yeah, it makes it more challenging =]

    I'm not entirely sure but I think he meant x squared. Speaking of x squared Calculus AB is not an easy class. But anyways I'm really considering this game, but the first was rediculously hard and only frustrated me. But I like the open grid idea. Eh it's 99 cents mine as well.

    Oh. Haha. That could be the case but it would be x^2 then. ;)
    Hmm, wonder why the original is more than Swarm. Oh well. It can only benefit us. :D

    The Swarm has a huge button at the bottom of level selection screens offering to link to App Store to buy the original geodefence. Devs should remove this button, because this is not a lite version. Not a big deal, but annoying. If you are going to advertise other games, make it more subtle. One option would be to have a "More Games" button on the front page instead (keeping in mind that it shouldn't take up half the screen but be the same size as other buttons). I wonder how many people accidentally pressed the link instead of "main Menu" button.

    Fun + 99c = you don't get to complain about anything.

    I've gotten less joy out of a pack of gum that cost more than this!

    As for the resuse of the art assets...the graphics didn't really need updating. The new level design completely changes the game in my mind. Everything old is new again.

    On a plus note, it is MUCH MUCH easier to line up towers (laser beam ones especially) with the new grid system. Towers go right where you want them.
