Hey guys,

We have some new WIP videos for our upcoming iOS, Android and PC game. It is an aquarium simulator where you decorate your tank, populate it with fish. With many different activities and mini-games there will be plenty to do, and with a plethora of fish, decorations, backgrounds each tank is very easy to customize.


The first video shows the general gameplay and how you customize your aquarium.





This video shows one of the mini-games, a slot machine.





Thanks, and let us know what you think!

Looks really cool.  How do the mini-games incorporate into the main game?

Also, how do you get that percentage bar next to the topic in the forums?

The mini-games allow you to use pearls to gain more coins (and sometimes more pearls) by playing slots, roulette, shooting gallery and more.  The coins are used to purchase new fish and decorations.  As for the percentage bar, you can choose your Message icon (which is set to Standard by default) right under the Subject line.

We will be trying to get some more screenshots and maybe another video in this week.  Thanks for your interest and hopefully we'll have the game out soon (it is in testing now).

Tap the Glass is currently in testing, but we are always open to suggestions of things that you would like to see in the game.  At launch there will be about 30 fish, over 20 props and many different backgound and floor options. With all those you can make almost endless combinations to create your own unique tank.

Screenshots of some of the new stuff for Tap the Glass



There are now starfish, and yes, they do wiggle n' jiggle when you tap on them!



Oh no! Your tank is filthy! Luckily you can clean it and receive a bonus for keeping your fish happy.

Here are some of the new "fish" for Tap the Glass!

That's right, we've added cute baby sharks who are just biting at the bit to "play" with your other fish!



Now we've got shrimp, all that's left is the garlic butter . . .

Hey Guys, I'm really excited to show you some of our 3D Models for Tap the Glass. What better way then letting you rotate the model in your browser, change skins and watch the swim animation! So we created our own viewer and we want you to try it out and let us know what you think.

Here's what it looks like:



Try it out here: http://goo.gl/5YW9u

Just install the Unity browser when prompted and then you can check out the actual models used in Tap the Glass!

Let me know what you think!

Tap the Glass and Tap the Glass Kids were released on June 20th, however the iOS version had an issue in the cash shop and to prevent anyone from having to deal with it we took the games down. The fix was very fast, dealing with Apple is not. We are doing everything we can to get the game back up. If you have an Android device you can download it today (if you don't see it on the store it might be because your phone is not compatible, we are currently working on making it work on older phones).

Thanks, and we'll let you know when the game re-launches,
