Hi

I've been meaning to post here since last week but haven't had the time. We've just released Piyo Blocks (and a lite version) on the App Store. Thanks to Riq and everyone else on these forums, cocos2d was a great help to the project. Apologies for the few promo codes, I'll try and get some more tomorrow if they haven't all been used up. Check out the details of Piyo Blocks below.

Promo code 1: 7PHPMXF6RA33
Promo code 2: 449HRTH39WJ7
Promo code 3: 9YXLFFYARK9H

APP STORE DESCRIPTION:

***** INSANELY ADDICTIVE! *****
___________________________________________

Your task is simple – swap adjacent Piyo Blocks to match 3 or more of the same kind to capture them. To level up you will need to capture a target number of each kind of Piyo.

The real skill comes into play when creating combos, which multiplies your score for capturing the Piyos. The bigger the combo you create, the greater score you’ll get!

Contains 3 different game modes:
• PIYO MODE – capture the target number of Piyos to level up
• HYAKU MODE – capture 99 or more of any Piyos to level up
• TIME ATTACK – you have 4 minutes to capture as many Piyos as you can

Features Include:
• High Score tables for each of the 3 game modes
• iPod library access - play your own music in-game
• Hundreds of levels
• Hidden cheats to discover

i take the: 449HRTH39WJ7

Downloading now, and back here to do a little feedback, btw the video looks awesome! I think the match3 market is really hard to get in, because games like bejeweled 2, azkend, but its impossible not congrats you for the game!

Aw nuts, the codes are gone. Anyway the app looks great!
Could you talk more in-depth about the gameplay?

@badawe:
I agree that the match 3 puzzle is hard to break into, due to bejeweled being so well known. However, I think what we've done with Piyo Blocks is provide a faster paced game, with 3 different game modes and iPod music playback for 1/3 of the price. And graphics wise we went for a completely different style to anything else out there, surely people are sick of swapping jewels and gems by now :) Also, this is only version 1.0, we intend to add a number of new features to the game over time. Head over to our blog if you want to vote for the new features for Episode 2: http://bit.ly/piyo_ep2_vote

@onedayitwillmake
Sorry you missed out on a code, it would have been nice if the people taking the codes posted here to let everyone know, but anyway. Why not try out the lite version and see if you like the game: http://bit.ly/piyo_lite
And again, if there are any features you'd like to see in the next episode you can vote on our blog.
By the way, I love some of the flash and papervision work you have on your site. Have you checked out our website and show reel video: http://www.bigpixelstudios.co.uk/ We've got a fantatsic papervision racing game coming out soon called Big Pixel Racing, you can catch some teaser footage of it at the end of the show reel.

Thanks

Piyo Blocks Donut Update (v1.1) is now live in the App Store :)

We've put in a lot of hard work to balance the difficulty levels, whilst still allowing it to be easily accessible and fun for new users/casual gamers.

We've also tried to add a few new features and graphics to the game as well, so hopefully all you existing Piyo fans will appreciate that.

The OpenFeint Edition (v1.2) has also now been submitted to Apple, with online high scores, achievements, and online chat/social networking. Hopefully it'll not be too long until you can all get your hands on it as well...

Thanks
