    I actually like the health bar for the enemy ships.

    Location services are enabled and work fine in my iPhone (4), but not at all in the iPad (2). Game's not able to determine my city, only country, it always displays a message like "Unable to determine your location ... "

    So question is: is there something wrong with my IPad / the app or do I need to have a GPS-enabled iPad to be properly located by the game?

    I have location services on in my wifi iPad and it determines my location ok. Just got a new high score of 4.3 mil using mirage.

    I just said they should remove it because it sounds like they don't want a flat bar mucking up the beautiful visuals in HD. I just want both builds to be identical except for the added visuals.

    App still prone to crashes on iPod Touch. Update made it even worse. Logged in or logged out of Game Centre, and it still crashes. Haven't been able to play Phoenix for a couple days, starting to experience withdrawal symptoms.

    interesting, it would be great if you could send your crash logs to [email protected] so we can take a look at the specific problem. Thanks in advance!

    I just realized I hold the second post in this thread, so if TA users would submit their scores I can maintain a high score chart in that post.

    It almost slipped by, but we just realized that Firi Games celebrates its 2nd anniversary today! *hurray*

    So much happened the past 2 years so I will work on compiling some development screenshots to show the progress. As a little gift for you guys I will provide some information on the upcoming update.

    This is not set in stone, so I will probably regret posting this at some point, but as it currently looks: The next update will include new enemies and probably a new player ship :eek:

    In other news, we now have over 200.000 active players on our Leaderboards which is amazing! Thank you and game on!

    Congrats Sel!


    Question regarding the pickups, would you be able to add in a update the ability to "double tap the screen to activate" them? With the exception of the health pickup (It would still be two fingers)

    Reason for this is because I play with one hand, and it takes to long to use my other hand to get the second finger on the screen, which winds up killing me in the process.
