We’ve previously posted about the 1.2 update for Super Jetpack Dragon IV…some 6 (yes, SIX…as in half a year…as in FOREVER in indie-game-dev-land) months ago. And still the update never landed. And why is that? Because somewhere along the way we grew much bigger plans for our favorite little jetpack-wearing Dragon.

We have a series of updates being readied as the content is prepared…

Super Jetpack Dragon IV: Village Burntopia has been live for just over two months and in that time we’ve released our first patch, enabling you, the player, to collect gold coins, and get a first glimpse at Jetpack Dragon’s arch-nemesis, Rocket Panda. Now it’s time to look at what those gold coins are used for: the new item shop in Super Jetpack Dragon IV: Village Burntopia v1.2, coming soon…

The Battle of Pirate Bay HD is coming to an iPad near you!
All the great gameplay from the iPhone version, with beautiful high-res graphics, and an all new story system to guide the player along.

I can’t say how excited we are that a game we designed won this award. It was a pleasure to work on, and a pleasure to work with ngmoco yet again.

Topple 2 is an ideal model for excellent iPhone game and game sequel design, technology adoption, performance, connectedness, and localization.

Topple 2 combines the features of multitouch and the accelerometer to create a game about stacking blocks and keeping them from toppling over. Local WiFi multiplayer mode enables game play between two players, and a challenge mode where recorded sessions can be sent to others players via email, twitter or facebook. Localized for English, French, German, Japanese, and Spanish, Topple 2 uses multiple iPhone SDK technologies including UIKit, OpenGL ES, Bonjour, CFNetwork, Multi-Touch, Accelerometer, Email, and Twitter and Facebook integration.

Topple 2 ranked #14 in terms of game quality (based on cumulative review scores).  Thanks again for everyone who took the time to play the game, we’re glad you enjoy it!  Stay tuned over the next couple of months for major updates to Topple 2…

Topple 2 has received some great reviews over the last few weeks that I wanted to share with everyone:

Macworld – 4.5 / 5

148 Apps – 4.5 / 5

Destructoid – 7.5 / 10

Pocket Gamer – 7 / 10, Bronze Award

Slide to Play – 3 /4

Besides these great reviews, Topple 2 has maintained a 4.5/5 star rating in the iTunes App Store.

Our heartfelt thanks to everyone who’s reviewed the game so far, you guys rock!  If you haven’t tried it yet, check it out!

We’ve decided to go ahead and drop the price on our first iPhone game, Line Shift in celebration of the new year. Dropped to only $0.99 we hope many more people will get a chance to experience and enjoy Line Shift as we here at the muteki corporation move into 2009 with many more games to come.

In all of the feedback on MazeFinger, some suggestions have on how we can improve the game have come up repeatedly.  The most frequent suggestions have been:

• A save game mechanism
• Use the ringer switch setting to mute the game
• Update the saved high score as you play

I’m happy to announce that all of these things are in an updated build that has been submitted to Apple.  Hopefully it’ll get pushed out to all of you soon.  Enjoy, and keep the great suggestions coming!
