    Haha, yah everything is going fine! We completed the first round a while ago, right now I'm working on making a bunch of improvements based on everyone's feedback. In addition, I'm kinda tied up working on another secret project which is taking some of my time away from Max... All is well, hopefully we'll start the second round soon, we've made some awesome improvements since then.

    Am I included in the second round? I promise I wont be the last one with feedback this time :p

    And whats this secret project huh??????!?!?!?!?

    EDIT: I dont remember if I added this to my feedback mail or not, but I think a way to control the iPad version using the iPhone as a controller could be interesting (like Chopper 2).

    Then dont mention it in the first place. Now you got me curious and I cant do anything but wait >.<

    how about just one answer. Simple Yes or No answer. No need for any additional details (unless you want to give more deatils:p)

    Q: Is it a new iOS game??? (think thats pretty much assumable by your post already. Just wanted to confirm it)

    Hopefully in 2 weeks.

    I'm not sure. My beta list doesn't include TA names, only email addresses. Did you receive an email from me saying you are in? If so, you are in. You can PM me the details if you want to check for sure.

    We'll probably make this announcement in December. That's all I'm answering for now.

    So we've decided that since we've come so far, we really want to get Max out in time for the holidays, sleep be damned. To meet that goal, we've basically been working 24/7, but we're making awesome progress. It's going to be an amazing game.

    We're basically reworking the whole upgrade system to make it a lot more fun. We've also added a bunch of new alien types to keep things interesting.

    Since we basically have to submit at the end of the month, the next beta will be... soon. We'll contact all the beta testers once we know the exact date.

    @EMTKiNG - you made me lol :) You are indeed very charming, but I think we're really low on beta slots at this point :/

    Max Adventure Update

    Hey guys!

    Time for a quick update on our status...

    We've making a ton of progress and we're about ready to start the second round of beta testing! We're planning on sending it out this Sunday.

    Check out some screenshots of the new upgrade system / store!

    [​IMG][​IMG]

    On the left you have a list of all the available powerups. You can purchase new items here and then enable / disable them as you please.

    On the right you have a list of your active powerups. These are the ones that are enabled. At first you can only have 1 powerup active at a time, but you can also purchase extra slots in the store (up to 3). You can then mix and match up to 3 different powerups. Some powerups combined to produce unique combinations not available in a single powerup.

    We think it's a pretty cool system and adds and additional level of strategy to each level. You may find that different combinations of powerups work best for you on different levels.

    There are all sorts of neat powerups to pick from, and it's setup so that we can continue to add new upgrades over time in updates.

    That's all for now. Stay tuned for more!

    -Keith
