   Looks sweet! Just bought it, will have a play tonight and leave a little review. Love the graphics, especially the menu scene.

   @jd :) right now is multiplayer on the same device or vs CPU but online multiplayer is under development.

   @PhilM thanks for your support :) The menu scene is based on a code I shared here a while back. If needed I'll repost it with the accelerometer hack.

   Looks great. Unfortunately it is constantly crashing on me, I haven't been able to complete a game. The crash always occurs when I am drawing the path for a ninja. Happens on an iPhone 3GS running 3.0.1. I've tried it with sound on and off and also did a reboot.

   Update: the problem is when the blue flame behind the 'Go' button goes out. As soon as that happens the game crashes.

   Steve,

   The issue was fixed and today I'll do the release.. I'll also add a new game mode and fixed some leaks so everything should be better in the end.

   So you won't have for the release to be available in iTunes I can send you a adhoc version of the game. just email me with the device id.

   Thanks for your feedback!

    Great game, wish I saw the promo codes, but well worth it. Love the original game play. Nothing on the iphone like it. Can't wait for multiplayer online.

    Penguins,

    thanks for the kind words.. we've been reviewed quite strangely in the appstore, where some guys just love it and some others just hate it, so hearing some fellow developer liking it is always good :)

    Anyway, some updates are on the way:
    1)bug fixes and a new game mode
    2)gameplay improvements and a cocos2d reference inside the game that I completely forgot before - removed the credits panel just before uploading the game and forgot all about it... it's been consuming me inside :(

    As soon as the first update is up I'll just post some more promo codes here. (buying, of course, is always another option :)

    Lol, I bought it, haha. Ya its an interesting game (in a good way, as in not seen, new gameplay)

    Certainly fixing that crash would be a major plus, but I don't see how the people on the app store can say that its bad. The graphics and user interface are amazing, and its great that a new mode is already on the way.

    one suggestion,
    I know this is hard, but the thing I found with me was that the ai is sorta easy. It would be great if there was a medium easy hard.

    Hope all that helps

    Yeah, that's something I want to change as well, having an AI difficulty setting.. but it's in the "nice to have" list because I made a basic error when I started the AI:

    I did a background box2d world and the AI keeps running simulations in it to find the best play... but, depending on box2d like this, the number of simulations that actually run in 10 sec are very low (~40)... Changing it will not be hard (40 lines of code?) but... I need to know how to do it properly :)

    That’s a very interesting idea, its actual sorta like actual thinking, keep trying things till it works.

    Good luck with that there 'proper' way, in the mean while, can't wait for the more modes :p
