    Great game

    Great game, i love that you changed the town/castle view from that boring text screen to the way it is now.
    Just like heroes 3!!!

    But this is what you should add/fix:

    - Add support for custom ipod music/podcasts.
    - Auto orientation or at least some way to change the orientation manually

    auto-orientation is already done. v.2.1 is already in review.

    you should also see new maps once v.2.1 is released.

    Palm Heroes 2.1 update is out! Lots of new and improved things, and new maps.

    I've added a map-pack with 10 maps.

    also important:

    "The Labyrinth" now has a free bonus multiplayer/hot-seat version with it.

    Those who bought "The Labyrinth" before - please confirm that you have successfully obtained the free bonus map after updating the pack!

    I'll be also happy to hear some feedback on the maps - which ones you like / don't like etc.

    Since it's very hard to decide if a map is good or not before actually downloading it - other players would benefit from map reviews.

    P.S. I'm about to add a UBER-MAP "Royal Bounty". The biggest, most advanced map ever made.

    I seriously doubt anyone would or could play this on a phone. It is already very hard to read your stats and see objects on the iPad screen. I'm squinting all the time. Everything is very tiny. Battle screens are mostly empty space and your heroes are way too small. Great concept but hopefully graphic improvements will be made. Could really use a pinch to zoom feature.

    it would be visually the same size on the phone, only the visible area will be smaller.

    Big monsters are in progress. We're a small team and this can't be done instantly, hope you understand that...

    Yes I did.

    I do see the word "new" after each map and an update for an existing map.
    but still have a total of 15 maps.

    bought the 10 map pack :)


    Gold Crusade is not working..... BUT.... just tried it again.. and now its working.. Guess must be an itunes issue then... weird.

    anyways

    The map Adventures of Henry Woods for $0.99 is that one different as
    the one that is in the 10 map classic pack for $4.99 ?

    cause it's still showing for purchase, and the 10 map pack doesn't.

    sure it is the same map. I've just combined 10 maps in one pack for a better map/dollar ratio :)

    more maps - more fun

    and henry woods is still shown separately because it is listed as a separate product in itunes. It's like you've got mice and keyboards in the shop, and a mouse + keyboard package. you get the combo variant but the shop still offers the same stuff separately. Just because it is still "on the shelf".

    consequently, if you have the 10maps pack and try to buy henry woods after that, apple will still take 1$ for it...

    Thanks.

    Guess have to pay attention, to see what map I have already then.

    it seems that there are lot of interesting Map names out there.
    so i probably end up getting the rest also..

    I like the auto resume after being killed..
    Was doing the Tutorial, since I had to redo my Ipad, and got killed
    with the first fight lol.. so I quit, and started again, and it jumped right
    back to before the fight.

    btw. it the word "new" so show everytime you start a new game
    by the Single Player mode? (the new for maps)
    it doesn't seem to go away after a restart.

    Picked up the 10-map pack and it's a steal. I've only played through Henry Woods, which would be a great training map and Heroes, which I already bought and liked.

    To the issue of duplicate maps, just do what some of the console rhythm games do and state in the individual map description when it is also available in a bundle. Might even sell more bundles that way and you'll definitely avoid any ill will from people who doubled-down unintentionally.

    Palm Heroes 2 is now one of my top 5 turn-based apps on the app store.

    Well done!
