    Hey Toucharcade,

    I recently took some time to put some love into my first iPhone title, SpringFling. With over 70,000 happy users, I'm sure you'll appreciate the higher resolution graphics re-done for the Mac version, as well as the higher quality audio. I've also built in the ability to add a bunch more silly hats to the game, so look for that soon!

    In additional to quality changes, I've tweaked the gameplay ever so slightly so that with the larger screen area comes greater ability to see what is coming ahead / above you as you jump, to reduce the chances of a jump being a crap-shoot and allowing players skill to really shine through in the newer version.

    Unfortunately Apple doesn't support Game Center for the Mac App Store, so you can help by telling Apple that they NEED GAME CENTER SUPPORT FOR MAC GAMES! Once they do that, I'll be able to have high scores which interoperate with the iPhone and iPad versions! Right now it's local only and it alerts you if you've passed your highest score. These scores will be displayed further once Game Center is integrated.

    Anyway, we've got some great reviews for the game, and at only 99c, it's the best cost per pixel out there, hehe.
