    Ah soup, I remember you from the original launch! Hope you like the update, its as much play time as the rest of the game. So basically doubling the campaign length

    Wrapping things up today and tomorrow then submitting. Unfortunately iPad 2 seems to be taking forever with delivery so we will have to wait on new awesome features on that front. When we get them we will add more advanced rendering and physics to leverage the machine.

    yep still there :)

    well i ignored the first ipad, and just got the 2 cos a friend was in the states, so i thought i'll have a look at it, can always sell it on if i find no use for it.
    And i have to admit i'm impressed, its somewhat knackered my cynical stand on tablets, but apart from that, it's great, so i'll look forward to any graphical changes, etc !

    More plundering goodness ???

    Fantastic news ! Plunderland has been one of my favorite games for the iPhone and iPad. It's one of the best games in the iTunes store, and it just got even better. I hope this update renews interest and brings in lots of new converts. Anyone on TA that hasn't played this game is truly missing out - get thee to the store and pick this up !

    Can't wait to play the new levels. :D

    Thanks for the support! It means a lot. Glad you enjoyed the game.

    I think youll enjoy the new gameplay especially the new boss!

    If you could do one new thing with the islands/islanders what would it be? Its Inuit and ice themed remember

    I have always loved this game but I do struggle with the tilt controls on the iPad, so a lot of times I will just play it on the iPhone.

    We will be adding an alternative control scheme soon, hopefully in this update so you can play just with touch

    Glad you like the look of it, let us know what you think. Would be great if you could leave a review.


    Update is done just waiting for new sounds to be delivered then we can submit! Tweaked the boss fight so it is a good balance of challenging and fun.

    Think I will put together some artwork to express the new campaign.

    MODS: can you get rid of the spam above?

    Its been fixed in an update we sent out as soon as the issue arose but Apple is just taking a while to make it live. Sorry for the problem, the game will support all devices its just currently less than 4.0 has that bug, but that will go.
