    Seems that when playing offline and you improve a score, you need to improve it *again* online to get it registered in Game Center. This could be improved in a next update together with the possibility to see the individual levels high score.
    For now, the warning is to not play offline

    Is there a fourth world coming or can I delete the game, because games I have finished and done with I always delete, so would like to hear that.

    I got my score registered, not sure how and when though. I did not improve the score that I had improved offline, so it must have been by improving another score, possibly even from another world. Not as bad, but still can be made more robust e.g. by always sending a high-score for a level that you have finished, improved or not.

    I hope you're doing fine!

    Any idea when the update is coming out?
    In the mean time, summary of feature requests:
    - highscore display
    - retry button
    - more robust submit to GC (accounting for offline play)
    - new world (to prevent roger-nl from deleting his game ;))

    As last, thanks for this nice game!! I hope it is doing good in the appstore

    One more tiny detail (ergonomics): whenever I want to enter a world, I touch the middle of the screen instead of the yellow play button far away in the corner. I do that almost every time! I have to consciously think about it to not do it. If that can be added too in a next update ... Like I said, tiny detail, but it is about improving game "polish" and that is important, right? :D

    Oh and at the score result screen, where you have to wait for the score points and stars and all to appear, it would be nice that a touch immediately shows the result (for us impatient ones who constantly replay a single level for the perfect shot :))

    About:
    - more robust submit to GC (accounting for offline play)

    This should include achievements as well. I passed the 200 star mark while in airplane mode (I was traveling) and the game showed the achievement notification but later when back online I see it is missing

    Just finished W3 (Into the Deep) and went over it another time as well.
    The result is as I was afraid of: second place on GC with 1267 points behind Matt33 :eek:
    Kudo's to Matt for his impressive score :cool:
    Good game!

    You're welcome! :D
    When the update comes out, maybe we should start a hi-score list. What do you think? And I hope the update will include that 4th world "The tick tock land". Will be fun!

    An update with the highscore display is coming. Not the next one though as thats just som added localization stuff.

    We're hesitant to add a retry button as we want to keep the screen as clean as possible.

    I'll check into the submit to GC bug. I thought the GC module handled that automatically.

    New world is in the works but might take some time.

    The retry button for me is about game (play) polish. That is, optimizing, making more efficient my interaction with the game. I use that button so often :) that even the two touches, going via the menu, becomes a nuisance to me (especially when I touch by accident skip instead of retry). But I appreciate of course that the game and thus the choice are yours :D

    GC synch is an issue with quite some games that I have played. You'd expect that Apple GC would take care of the synch but that is not the case. Recommendation is to submit the score every time a level is finished, so you're automatically robust. And offer a sync button for achievements (could include score synch as well perhaps)

    This is BS! :(
    At least it's still on my ipad. Not showing up under purchased. :(
    I think it's time for me to get a 2 TB hd and back up all of my apps. It's horrible Apple does this. Now I have to download 6000 apps to my computer :(
