HI TIGs.

During this past summer, I made my first game (with some assistance from Auntie Pixelante and Nullsleep). It's a retro arcade co-op mashup (punch me in the face) of Pong/Breakout/Space Invaders for the iPad, and now the iPhone/iPod Touch. Since I had to edit much code and many assets to port the game, I also figured I'd 'remaster' the game to improve the playing experience based on things I learned working on other games in the ensuing months. The end result is something (hopefully) more playable, enjoyable, and personal. But I need your help to make sure the game isn't buggy, that it works on a variety of devices, and that there's nothing too obtuse or frustrating.

Anyway, post or PM your email address and I'll send a test build your way. Testers will be rewarded with a special EP of the soundtrack to the game.

Aaaand here are some pictures. Everyone likes pictures, right?

Yup, I was there. What you saw there was basically untouched since the end of August, and the current version has about two weeks of extra polish added. Thx for the UUID

Ugh, that's iPad. Hope you didn't waste one of your slots. I've only got an iPod.
I was the guy working on the turtle/bird game, sat near you at one point.

Fun game, looking forward to playing it (Planning on buying an iPad2)
