    Hi There,

    As you know we are working like slaves on our next original iPhone game Astro Ranch which is due for launch this winter.

    Right now we are tying down the key social features in the game and it would be helpful to know what you, our valued game players, would like most of all. I'd really appreciate it if you'd take the time to complete the little poll above and help us make the best alien ranching game on iPhone!

    Also feel free to suggest other ideas in the thread!

    Here are some screens from the game if you haven't already seen them...

    BETA PROGRAMME

    Sorry I forgot - if you would like to be considered for our Astro Ranch beta programme please email us at [email protected]

    We already have over 500 names on the candidate list so there are no guarantees you'll get in (we are looking for 50 max), however you have to be in it to win it!

    Cheers
    Paul

    @Paul Are the testers random, or is it based on past experience? If it's based on past experience, I have a much better chance of getting in. :D

    Thanks for all the beta requests sent. You should all have emails now.

    So what other cool social features would you like in the game besides being able to visit your friends ranch?

    For example do you prefer collaborative play (working together on a task) or competition (growing the biggest melon)?
