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.

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.

• 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!

I’m speaking, of course, of that moment when your game is first available to the public.  What will the world really think about what you’ve made?  The publisher is happy, friends and family have all raved about it, and you still like it even after staring at it for hours while you push to squash the last bugs before shipping.  Those points all give you hope, but none of it matters until the public gets ahold of it.  They might decide that it’s missing a key feature, or that it isn’t as fun as you think it is, or that it’s just “meh.”

But sometimes, they love it as much as you do.

MazeFinger was released to the public on October 17th, and the public response has been enormous.  It immediately shot up on the iTunes free application list, topping out (so far) at #2.  It’s also received coverage on sites like Touch Arcade and Pocket Gamer.

So from all of us here at muteki, thank you so much for taking the time to play MazeFinger and for all the positive feedback!  And stay tuned: we have more great games for you on the way!
