      Hello all!
      The new update for Topia is out and that means its contest time!

      The theme for this contest is 'City among the mountains'

      The new tools are in, which allow you to create even more interesting worlds now. For instance, you can import a heightmap if you select the app in documents with iExplorer on Mac/PC.
      The heightmap has to be a .tga file, with red channel as height, green channel as grass.
      You'll see there are also a bunch of other interesting tools available as well.
      Two winners will each receive a $50 iTunes card.
      Will do the judging this weekend, and announce the two winners next Monday, May 6th.
      Go at it!

      -Josh

      Does that mean we can get actual real life terrain topography into Topia? Awesome.

      If anyone else is planning to recreate the menacing breast from Woody Allen's "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex, But Were Afraid to Ask"...drop that thought now. I'm on it.

      Hi there!
      I was just wondering about where I can find Topia? I'm sorry, but I haven't heard of it before. Is it an app or computer game? I can't seem to find it :(
      Also, I was wondering, is there an option to win the prize thru paypal instead?
      Thanks :D

      It's an iPhone/iPad app. Just search for it on the AppStore! I suggest you buy it and enter the competition since you have (at the moment of writing) a 33.3% chance of winning. Good luck and if you need help just check out the link I posted earlier :)
