    Ah, I don't want to disappoint the players that much. XD First they see the bomb - A-WE-SO-ME, gonna get a huge blast out of that one. Next, the boxing glove appears - ... where is my mushroom cloud?!? ;( ;( ;(

    Ouch!!! ;) That would be yeah too much for Apple as torture games are pretty much disallowed. But we have planned something not quite that gory, but meaty instead. I'll tell you more when the time comes. :)

    Extended the deadline!

    Yeah, well... :p Due to the lack of entries we'll extend the deadline by one week. The new deadline is Monday, 5th of October 2009, 23:00 Finnish time (GMT+3). I hope that Apple approves update v1.2.0 before the new deadline so we can have those promo codes ready for the prize ceremony. ;)

    nodoctors posted here a lot of great ideas (thanks again!!!), so if you lack the idea, but have great art skills, check out his post:

    If you don't get any more entries by next Monday, PLEASE tell me that there won't be anymore extensions! Right now I actually have a chance of winning! lol BTW, if there are any programmers or artists or if you just have a great idea for a part of a platformer like a obstacle or enemy or level sketches or would like to help me with my platformer, let me know! You'll be credited in the credits!

    ^ longest run on sentence ever ^

    hopefully you get more entries ttursas. People don't realize how fun this game really is. Maybe add another one of the explosion levels to the lite version so people get a feel for how the game is ;)

    I think one extra week should be enough. Let's hope so. ;)

    Hey, why won't you also hold a contest here? Give away some cool prizes, I'm sure you'll get at least lots of ideas. ;)

    ;) Well, let's see. Actually when the iDrop Dead Lite update comes out it'll have five levels, and one of them is "Choose your weapons" level where people get a taste of that neutron bomb. :)

    That's a good idea, too. I've never done it before, but I think it should be doable. I'll add it to our TODO-list, but I won't give it a high priority, because it's a "really nice to have" -feature. First some new levels and worlds. ;)

    Well, spidey146 wanted me to post this message again for some reason, so ok I will I guess: If you don't get any more entries by next Monday, PLEASE tell me that there won't be anymore extensions! Right now I actually have a chance of winning! lol BTW, if there are any programmers or artists or if you just have a great idea for a part of a platformer like a obstacle or enemy or level sketches or would like to help me with my platformer, let me know!
