    Great thread switch-it!

    Btw, for games that do not support the iPhone 5/iPod Touch 5, how do the games play? Is it annoying because of the black bars on the side?

    Not really. Non-widescreen games play normally and look exactly the same, and are exactly the same size, as on 3.5" devices. No problems.

    But when you have the extra size, you wish it was all used, especially because that extra space helps visibility of the main game display area

    ALSO: this thread should be STICKIED. =)

    Ahh, that's good to hear! Yeah, I could see how that could get a little annoying at times.

    I have some more games to add to the list btw:

    Ice Rage (Updated October 2nd)
    Dynamite Jack (Updated October 3rd)
    Riptide GP (Updated October 12th)

    Thanks, pretty crazy huh? :p Nothings gonna change though, still gonna do daily updates, although i'm open for suggestions :)

    Thanks, will be adding that later tonight

    When i check for game reviews i use the TouchArcade app and it didn't show any reviews for Kingdom Rush from TA. Turns out that TA only reviewed the HD version and so the regular version was left "un-reviewed". I play this myself and and agree with the HD review for the regular version. I will add it again for today with that little ★ in the end ;) Thanks for updating your game! We very much appreciate it
