    Hi Dene! Good to see you back and working. Thanks for the Incoboto mini version for my phone, I bought that instantly and really enjoy it.
    You just can't make bad games, no? ;)
    I also like your pricing attitude - don't devaluate your artwork like other devs did. I believe that quality has to have a price.

    I am also really excited about your new project - the hints toward it (in your blog) are really promising!
    But can't you give us a little hint about the genre of your new game?

    Wait, did you just quote my statement about "IncobotoMini" but talk about the iPhone 5 bug?

    Oh, I can and do. All games are crap at some point. You just have to know how to fix them!

    Thanks.

    Bemuse is...

    "A game about creation, storytelling, exploration, loneliness, death, magic, folk-tales and... um...

    ...demon-summoning."

    It is not a fantasy RPG.
    It is inspired by this creepy-assed animation of the Moomins: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=anJb0LTYS5w

    The motto of the Moon in the game (see the trend?) is:
    "Do not call up what you cannot master." I'd remember that.

    It's called Bemuse because I'm going to be doing something quite weird with content creation and the community. I don't want to say more in case I wake up tomorrow and say: "Man, that was a stupid idea!"

    No. That would make me an idiot.

    Oh, wait...

    Sorry.

    I have to get the lighting ball to me before it goes boom and there's 3 switches that have a timer.

    Start the first switch off BEFORE the power orb has been created, and the second just as it is being created. That should help.

    Don't worry about it. We all make stupid mistakes from time to time. But my main question hasn't been answered: Are you going to change the app name on the home screen from "incobotomini" to "IncobotoMini"? Thanks again for making a great game!

    PS: iCloud support would really be nice, but if you aren't going to add new features, that's cool too!

    ^They 'might' do that if theres an update coming out in the future but as the games just come out surely theyre not that bothered by that minor change at the moment ? Just doesnt seem too important

    To the devs - I'm fine with the app name !

    Damn, that was the biggest understatement I've ever heard... ;)
    Consider me a stalker in terms of gaming, since I've been following your way for over 25 years. I am one of the few who still remembers that Acamantor guy and played Druid for nights. On your account are games like Fable, Dungeon Keeper, Populous, Genewars, Syndicate Wars and Sim Theme Park by EA, if I am right. And more. I've played around 90% of them, wasted years of my youth. So... I consider it to be realistic that your bad in making bad games. :p :D

    Acamantor? Good Lord, that was a long, long time ago! Funny how this industry has kind of gone full-circle.

    Yes. And that would be a good reason for a "Druid 2013"! Missing a good Gauntlet-like for iOS. ;)
    And one of my most favourite games of all time is Magic Carpet. Still remember it well. Damn, I played that for weeks. It had 3D graphics. Unbelievable. But Druid was one of the first games I ever bought... I think one of the first 5.
    Omg, I am old.

    I am digging deeper into Incoboto at the moment, and this game is marvelous! I like games with a strong message behind it (that's why I also love to read Terry Pratchett). Best two bucks I've spent in a while.
