    Lost Levels are optional, it's really hard. World 4 revisits the past enemies and setups harder levels but should be doable.

    We will talk with our representative from Apple and present a new design starting with this. We will also release a mini-comic explaining the change in a humorous way, and not bringing bad light to any party. Hope we get a win-win-win here, us developers, you gamers, and Apple.

    Woah, no one posted since this was brought up? There's still a chance iOS gets Kill the Plumber? :D

    Has there been any update in the last week, Keybol?

    I don't think the name is the problem. Mario's not the only plumber in the universe and it's not like the devs named the game "Kill Mario". I think a title like Super Lep's World is not only worse, but also offensive as not only is the bloody game a rip-off (god, don't get me started on how annoying it is that Apple lets those games through, but not Kill the Plumber), but it also uses the same bloody name as the Mario games, just replacing "Mario" with "Lep".

    Yeah exactly our feelings. It hurts even more to know this one was approved and still available on the AppStore

    How did that get approved and your game didn't.. Did you guys just have the worst Apple associate ever or what? Have you talked to anyone from Apple about it or do you feel like that would be beating a dead horse.

    No offense to the developer of that game (you gotta do what you gotta do to make a living!), but you should see the title of the thread they made here on TouchArcade. "Super Mario on iOS is here!!!".

    No. No he isn't.

    well our contact said she is cannot help as that's not her job and we just talk to the reviewer for another appeal. yes i believe we really just got unlucky to not get pass the review board, while tons of ripoffs get out so easily. this feels like you are doing best at school or office but you always get blamed by your boss and this asshole of an employee gets high praises by taking credits from others.
    im sorry for the rant, this would have been the day of release. and this is my birthday

    Happy birthday, Keybol! :)

    Is this stuff after you guys took the decision to redo everything or is this when the game was rejected the first time 'round?

    Happy Birthday! :) Also, this doesn't surprise me but maybe it will some other folk, TouchArcade has not featured an article on the game or its plight even once so far.

    TA maybe hasn't written about it but a lot of other mobile gaming sites have : Pocket Gamer, Slide to play, and a bunch more. Maybe this could be a blessing in disguise as it could build more hype for the game.

    Also, I found this on Amazon. I don't suppose this is your game Keybol? :

    http://www.amazon.com/x6D2A-x7ECE-x667A-Kill-Maliao/dp/B00WU24TDK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1437629076&sr=8-1&keywords=kill+the+plumber

    I did view the game on Google Play. The downloads are surprisingly low. I'll buy a copy to help you out. Also have you considered a free version? If you had the right partner I think a free version could do well on Android.
