Solipskier
Spider: The Secret of Bryce Manor

Sale not effective as of yet, I believe.

Gonna pick up Spider when it goes on sale.

[eddieg]

Nice!

Gonna (finally) pick up Canabalt & Eliss :)

I have all the others & they're great!

Solipskier is great high speed fun...Drop7 is a really addictive too.

Thanks for the sweet sale!

[goiMot]

I own them all, but will gift some because it's for a good cause:

"SIX AWESOME GAMES, NOW $0.99!
Six independent iPhone game creators have joined forces to raise money for Child's Play, a charity that helps sick kids play their favorite games while they're in the hospital. We've put our most popular games on sale for just $0.99 each, some for the first time ever, and a third of all our sales (after Apple takes their share) will be donated to Child's Play!"

Sweet!! Should I get Canabalt even though I have a
ton of other runners?

Solipskier would be a better idea then. Canabalt is just the regular running game, Solipskier is a bit more unique. Personaly I'm going for Drop7.

[Haruhi]

Thanks for the heads-up. I think I'll buy everything I don't already have. :)

[moisty]

sweeeeet - been wanting to pick up drop7. Now I've got two great excuses (for charity and a sale :D)

[csklimowski]

Been holding off on Solipskier for a while now. Thanks!

[pluto6]

Own them all except solipskier. Bought it tonight, but wish I had bought long ago. Fantastic game.

[medianotzu]

I got Eliss. I can say with certainty that all the others are extremely great games and worth a measly dollar. This might be the best sale yet for someone who'd only just started to get interested in iOS gaming.

[acrotran]

Thanks for posting these great games. This is sick!
I went for Drop7 and Osmos.
Earlier today I got: Chaos Rings, Space Invaders Infinity Gene, Age of Zombies.
Unbelievable!

[cjsbug]

What a fantastic set. especially Drop7!

Maybe it's now time to jump on Canabalt, just because...
Still hesitating now that I have a handful of good runners.

[Swamp7hing]

I've got Canabalt and Spider. Played Osmos on Mac. If I had to pick one other, which should it be?

Solipskier is so great!
Check it out online...but really for a buck...just get it!
Love that game :D

Actually I think all these games are easily worth a buck!

Depends on what you're looking for. Solipskier and Drop7 are both awesome. Drop7 is a thinking game that does not rely on time, where Solipskier is more intense.

If I was only going to pick one, I'd go for Drop7, but it would be a tough choice.

[Qordobo]

I already had Osmos and Spider, for iPad, so I could buy them all, so I did but well just the feeling to have donate to myself. :rolleyes: The PC similar attempt was more logical by allowing bought the game the price you want. Ha well, those sales are cool.

[zackbh]

I just don't like how the "HD" versions of Osmos and Spider haven't been put on sale. A little grating on us iPad owners.

[ninjackid]

I'm leaning towards buying Solipskier because of all the positive feedback... Any opinions on why I shouldn't get it?

[spyky]

I wanna get solipskier and canabalt, seeing they are supposedly "king of runner games". But seriously, I have so many other great runners (with game center as well) would I really be missing anything with those two?

Yo, im one of the devs on Solipskier. I wouldnt neccesarily call it a runner, but you should check it out in Flash here first: http://mikengreg.com/solipskier to see for yourself. :)

[Andylasian]

Great sale! I've been looking at Spider for a while.

[polycontrale]

I already had all but Solipskier, and I just picked that up. Not a single bad game in this bunch, and anyone who doesn't have them all should seriously consider them now.

[Dazarath]

Thanks for posting this, OP. I remember Osmos getting some good reviews, so seemed like an easy purchase for $1. It's a pretty interesting game. A bit different than the ones I usually play, but I'm liking it so far.

[RagManX]

Already have all of them except Eliss. Downloading it now. Thanks. I'm pushing right up against the $100 mark for iOS app spending this holiday sale season. Dang.

[ShamusLowlander]

:(
I LOVED solipskier on PC! Didn´t know it was on sale,and I just bought Age of Zombies...wich is still pretty good,but still :(

[ninjackid]

Solipskier is awesome and I am so glad I bought it!

[TiltMyTouch]

Obviously these 6 games are all great, but how would you rank them? For me:

1. Solipskier
2. Drop7
3. Osmos
4. Canabalt
5. Eliss
6. Spider: The Secret of Bryce Manor

[Haruhi]

It's a difficult choice, but...

1. Solipskier
2. Osmos
3. Spider: The Secret of Bryce Manor
4. Canabalt
5. Eliss
6. Drop7

[awp69]

Had all but Eliss and Canabalt. Bit on Eliss and am a bit disappointed, but still a fun, different game. I've got way too many runners that have probably improved on the Canabalt idea so I'll pass on that.

My list would go like this:
1. Solipskier
2. Osmos
3. Drop7
4. Spider: The Secret of Bryce Manor
5. Eliss

Can't comment on Canabalt since I haven't played it.

Hey guys thanks for all your support! We've already raised over $3000 for Child's Play, which is AMAZING. I wanted to announce it here first, but in just a few days Canabalt will be receiving and update with Game Center support, proper retina support, and a lot of performance fixes, including full 60 FPS gameplay on retina and iPad devices! If we can break $5000 by tomorrow morning we can make another announcement :D

Time to buy 2000 copies.
Or wait...

[TiltMyTouch]

You mean 6000. And more.

Child's Play only gets 1/3rd of the revenues. Add in the fact that Apple takes away some portion of the money.

[heavy liquid]

I already had Canabalt, Spider and Osmos, but went ahead and bought the other three games I didn't have.

It also helps that some are universa, which is a big plus for me.

Now hopefully they'll add Game Center to the ones that don't have it... :)

[crex]

Bought Solipkier and let me tell you right now, AMAZING!!!!! I love the art style and the controls are perfect(although I don't know how to pause it). And I can't respect you guys enough for what your doing for the cause. Great Job.:)
