    Excellent work guys. It's one of very few games that I immediately clicked buy after just seeing the screenshots. And I've not regretted it at all. You've really upped the game for iPhone devs! Amazing stuff :)

    I love it on toucharcade, this contact players have with devs id really unique.

    And to be more specific, I dont say you should stop all the leveling, but applying a 25% drop on upgrades should be fine (at least for me).

    Have a nice day, and thanks for this great game, I'm having a lot of fun.

    ZorakZoran - we will do that kind of tweaking of treasure for upgrades for sure.

    We have always communicated with out audience on johnnytwoshoes.com forums. Its a good thing for sure. TouchArcade is great because we can talk to people that dont already know us.

    Thanks :)


    Donovan - no worries dude

    It's a great looking game, but I haven't found it too hard, just trying not to pass it too quickly as it looks like it's lacking in levels, which is a shame as it's a fantastic game.

    I need some tips on passing level 2-5 "let us pass". It's the level with the huge structure in the middle with the TNT up on a tower. I can finish the level but it keeps telling me I failed and to purchase more upgrades. I've got the flying Dutchman, dual cannons, & crows nest. Nothing else is available for me yet. Maybe I'm a little dense, but I can't figure this one out. My cannons won't reach the TNT barrel up top so I have to shoot the structure to get close enough. What am I missing? Help... Pretty please!?:confused:

    The fact that you have to unlock Survival Mode (the only real reason I got this) is pathetic.

    Go on top of the first two barrels, shoot down while going to the right. It'll do the trick

    I'm wondering the same thing.

    joshsslade, could you elaborate on exactly how the score is rallied up?

    Also, right when you launch the game you see your ship with it's current upgrades and some of the characters playing around. Is there any way that this screen can be made into a sandbox mode where you can interact with your ship and characters, etc.? That would be amazing.

    Lastly, I cannot figure out for the life of me how to un-pause the game. The little picture of the iPod with an arrow is not very helpful to me. A two finger swipe down to pause and a two finger swipe up to resume would be much more intuitive. Please add that in an update! For now, how do you un-pause the game?

    By the way, this game is incredible. Everything from the physics, graphics, and gameplay is great. I bought Plunderland yesterday morning and have been playing it ever since!

    I'm going on vacation tomorrow and am thinking of picking this up for down time. My biggest concern has to do with how much gameplay there is. I've heard it's a bit short on gameplay. I know the developers plan to release DLC but I'm a bit concerned about whether there will be additional content released in free upgrades as well as the additional content through DLC. I certainly don't mind paying for DLC for the right game, but I like to know that the original purchase is worth the money. Thanks.

    Hi I'm new here in the forums. Decided to join since I'm an app junky. I love Plunderland but I have a suggestion. The suggestion is a way to anchor your boat. Maybe with a two finger tap? This is because sometimes you are trying to shoot something and you keep moving. Otherwise great app and I can't wait till UPDATES!!

    To explain the pause system

    turn the game upside down to pause
    to resume turn back the right way and click the middle button

    The game still entertains me and ive played it so many times.. Have you read the review on the main page yet?

    Thanks for the review touchArcade! :)



    About scoring in the game, its all about collecting treasure but the structures give you more treasure the less shots and quicker you defeat them. Shake islanders, break boats by shooting as they sink and dig for burried treasure, loot islands etc.. you should be fine

    The pausing works fine for me but resuming does not work at all on my iPod touch 3G running on iOS4.

    The pausing is annoying. I don't like that I have to turn my ipod. i'd rather there be someplace were a button could be to pause..

    I agree completely.


    @joshsslade- how did you feel about my suggestion of adding a sandbox mode on the main menu?
