  1. Lol :D I Got my score and saw you had beat Prab and was waiting for it to show up...:p
     
  2. No the updates we have planned are just regular free updates that we want to make to the game.

    Weird ghost power you say, we'll try to find something else for them too.

    Edit: Prab is overtaken

    I like having another use for the money but how does one EVER afford something 5,000? This will be the accumulated left over cash of every game?
     
  4. Absolutely, accumulated over all games and not just left-over. Whatever you pick up during a game is counted (you can see these values on your loot screen at the moment). 5000 is not a fixed value it's just what I pulled off the top of my head, sorry that it seems high - prices would be decided in testing.

    Sounds awesome TwoLivesLeft! Can't wait to buy the game and eagerly await for the updates. A second power for the Ghoul Boots would be a good idea, like maybe allow you to go "invisible" for a while, making you able to pass through enemies without injury. Just an idea.

    All those new items and scenes sound very cool, as well as purchasing items, that would be awesome. Being able to get an item that you couldn't reach would be very useful. I think 5000 gold would be good though, because that means you still need to work at getting to 5000 anyway. All-in-all, updates sound great and can't wait for the game to come out! Definitely need to play more and get higher. I was gonna vote for THE STUD because it seems that in every game he plays, he gets to the top somehow ;P Good choice?

    Most of us arent allowed to vote (including you xFinch) because we are also competing for score :p Its in the competition rules somewhere...

    ++1 i love the idea! maybe double tap to activate a 'ghost' mode!
    however, this should be merged the ghost stomping idea as when you double tap the screen, you could become a ghost for 5-10 seconds(upgrades?). in that time, you can stomp on ghosts and go through other baddies!
    it should take about 30 seconds for that power to refill.
    or, when you double tap to use the ghost power, the coins start draining! maybe at a rate of 1 coin a second. then, when you want to not be a ghost anymore, you double tap again to go back normal

    This is a must have everyone! Though I am having trouble beating my score that is 6-something I am having LOADS of fun trying!!!!!! The opening price is a STEAL!!!!!!!
     
  20. Now that you mention it, that's something we should consider.

    That is pretty amazing! If you displace zlibd I think all the Pick the Winners so far will be a little surprised :)

    Thanks for the suggestions guys! I love the idea of being able to go "ethereal" for a short time. Additionally, item upgrades are something we're thinking about. Double tapping to activate sounds like an interesting mechanic. I think we'll have to experiment with other ways to include non-primary abilities (whether a visible button, or double-tap).
