    Hi All,

    The snow beast things are broken. I'm not sure when it happened....we had actually already noticed during testing for the next update but we didn't realise it was in the live build.

    So the good news is it is already fixed and will be live in the Valentines update that is coming on Tuesday.

    People will be able to go back and get the fruit cup on that level once it goes live. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Greetings again,

    Did anybody manage to get those 3 remaining fruits on today's (16-03-17) level? As you can see from the screencap it's right below the last checkpoint.

    Can't seem to reach them no matter what I did and I have to settle with 98% for this level orz

    It was a bug and has been fixed. If you all update you should be good to go. Because we couldn't turn a few things off in making this update you will all get a few little things that were supposed to be in the next big update early too :)

    It helps sometimes when you tell them what device and ios version you're playing.

    And yep, unfortunately same here on both devices. During the white loading screen it crashes and back to my homescreen. No hard reset helped. :(

    Hi everyone,

    We are aware of the game crashing bug on the 21st of April and have already fixed the issue and submitted the update to Apple yesterday. We tried to push it for an urgent review which we hoped would have had it live the same day as has happned in the past. Sadly we're still waiting and we have now hit an unfortunate window of downtime that Apple announced to devs so that will delay it several hours more.

    The good news though is that a fix is on the way really soon. Also to all that have not realised it only effects the 21st. The 22nd will play fine.

    For all interested the bug is the result of two elements clashing....ghosts and sticky and throwing an error. Unusually even given that this has existed since Halloween last year this is the first time this combo has happened.

    We have also in this update submitted a dev tool to help us spot this sort of thing in advance in the future so that we have more time to issue a fix before people actually see it in the live build.

    We are considering giving a limited number of people access to this build outside of Nitrome. If anyone is interested they can email us at [email protected]. We are really just looking for players that play every day and ideally that always or usually get the fruit cup.

    Finally we sadly missed making an Easter update that we hd hoped to make but it is because we decided it was important to wrap up two much bigger updates on preference. The plan is to launch one of these for the anniversary of the game which is not too far away now!

    Look forward to lots of new cool things soon and thanks for playing!

    Hey all the fix for the crash bug on the 21st is now live! Took longer than we hoped to get through the Apple review but better late than never!

    .....ok back to those updates!
