    Hi everyone,

    I wanted to update you on the release status of Hairy Tales. We've hit a bit of a snag on the Apple company review process, and they're manually reviewing the issue but can't give us an exact estimate of when they'll have it done. Once that's clear, I'll update you on the release date.

    Cheers!

    Hello everyone,

    We're still waiting on Apple to fix the problem that's holding us back from releasing. Here's pretty much how we feel while holding our breath waiting for them to tell us we can go ahead:

    If anyone's wondering, they have already approved the game, but are having what they call an "out of sync" with our company information - they have it, their systems just don't seem to know they do.

    We really want to get Hairy Tales out to you, so we're at the point where we're considering alternatives. While we'd planned to self-publish, we may get in touch with publishers soon, since Apple can't gives us a resolution estimate. You'll know as soon as we do, and I welcome any suggestions meanwhile.

    Here's the full retina screenshot for that image, from Hairy Tales' 01-12 "Garlic Breath" stage. Thanks a lot for the patience and the great comments we have been getting. Cheers!

    Hi Fractalrock,

    Yeah, we seem to have hit a snag. I don't want to make any promises as to the date, seeing as we depend on the approval process running its course, but do hope we have news very soon.

    Thanks for asking, and you'll know as soon as I know!

    Thank you for the support, actually! I'll re-start the wallpaper series, and we're producing some more art meanwhile.

    Good news, everyone! (/Farnsworth)

    I've just gotten word that we're just getting out of the approval woods, which means Hairy Tales will be landing on the AppStore next week, on Thursday October 25th. Woohoo!

    Cheers,
