    Wrong posted in the upcoming thread...

    "Since i don't have my ipad miniR with me, i could not invest more time in this beauty (still level 2), but i chime in that the re-spawn is not ideal right now. I'm sure you'll find a good solution for this.

    My GOTW (only soft launch), a tiny bit ahead of Hearthstone since i always prefere such a good overall package over any board game."

    And now : Get off my lawn !

    Edit: yeah the iphone might be a bit too small, but since it's my prefered gaming device (always with me) i'm very looking forward to have it.

    Update in preparation for worldwide release

    So the worldwide release is slated for the 15th which is next week. (off course depends on submission approval by apple)

    But we've had a good read through the feedback, and I can tease a few of the new things that will be in the worldwide release (or in the first update, depending on apple again)

    First of all we've added a bunch of arcade modes, separate challenges where you can train and hone your skills. Including a Deathchase tribute challenge.

    Secondly the game will now have a full tutorial on the controls , we noticed some people hadn't found the dual finger slide for Nitro for instance, or the missiles)

    Also we added plenty of fixes and tweaks to the game. For instance the resetting after a crash could be problematic or harsh, that's been reworked to work better and more forgiving.

    As soon as the update is live, I hope to share some the new screens and art, as well as a proper update changelog.

    After that getting the game to iPhone will be our top priority.


    So we're all anxious and excited about the worldwide release, and working hard to provide the most bang for your money.

    launch postponed to the 22nd

    Hi everyone, sadly we missed our launch window by one day,. Apple approval process can vary sadly..

    The update has been approved and will be live on the canadian appstore l,later today.

    Worldwide release will happen next thursday, our apologies. But we really wanted to launch the best possible version with all the new changes and extra content.

    Hope you understand.

    We're now aiming at having a universal version very shortly after worldwide release as well.

    Got my hands on this game this weekend, an man i was plesently thrilled :) first of all graphic and artwork is simply phenomenal! Comic design and gameplay like this is great combination. Controls are fluid, easy and well made. I dont wonna spoil story for future players but il just say you wont be disapointed. Gameplay is adictive as exspected. All in all, story, graphic, design, gameplay everinthing is in place and functioning like its sopouse to do. As the devs said, this was worth of waiting :D

    Thanks again for the promo code.
    Following is my review. I had fun with it.
    Do with it what you want.

    SXPD

    I am almost at a loss for words. Don't get too excited. I said ALMOST! he he
    What can I say? This game is Hot, hot, hot!
    The black and white stylized graphics by DC comic book artist Duke Mighten make this an instant classic.
    If I could put this game on the shelf next to Aunt Molly's porcelain piggies , I would. This game deserves a spot on the shelf of priceless collectors items.
    SXPD is a fast paced and enjoyable racing game full of action. More than a race, it's a science fiction comic book and you are in the thick of it. The back ground story is the kind that belongs in a sci fi studio. And; I wouldn't be surprised if one day I look up and see; "SXPD, Motion Picture," at the theater.
    I am reminded of the films that blend both comic book and reality together. There's a bit of nostalgia here and yet; cutting edge.
    Playing the game is a fun challenge. It takes a while to show skill. Believe me, you'll die plenty of times. But the game is very forgiving and starts over for you. You tilt your device for direction & tap the screen to shoot the enemies. Use 2 fingers for heart pumping speed when you find nitrous.
    Don't give up and you'll be rewarded with intense gameplay and the knowledge that you are helping to save the people of the 52nd state of America from a weapon of mass destruction......
    People will love you, adore you, want to be you..... Er... OK fine. Not in real life.
    Or, maybe..... .?
    I guess you'll have to play the game to know for sure. :)
    I can't guarantee you the popularity, but instead, maybe a smile.
    Especially when you find the additional content. A 42 page digital comic book.
    Once you get the hang of it, the game may seem a little short. But, with all enthusiasm I proclaim, there's more coming and they can only get better.
    If you like comic books, stylized art, speed, action, and a new style, then this is the one for you.
    Like I said; hot, hot, hot.

    We'll, I certainly can't wait. I'm on the verge of buying a US iTunes gift card to see if it'll work on my CA account...anyone know if this works? I want this game NOW
