$7.99. As I mentioned in the grassroots pricing thread, I misspoke a while back based on some internal speculation, and I apologize for any bummers that may cause.

From the App Store description (that I wrote)

• Full iPad Retina support for beautiful, HD graphics!
• Cannonball Tower lets you play pool with Fieldrunners!
• Zap Tower electrocutes groups with chains of lightning!
• Sonic Tower blasts enemies like a shotgun of sound!
• Slow Link Tower freezes enemies as they march through lasers!
• Machine Gun Tower fires powerful bullets with tracers!
• One and a half hours of developer commentary!
• Transfer game saves with iCloud!

Overall: The bigger screen makes a huge difference in gameplay, and the Retina display makes the hyper detailed artwork absolutely gorgeous. I was in complete awe the first time I saw our game on the Retina display. Also, as I've recently been informed, version 1.2 of Fieldrunners 2 for iPhone will have the new towers *only* if you also have the iPad version.

I've actually had people deliver cookies on launch days for other games. Cookies = praises, definitely do this for any nearby developers that you like

Will you be adding the towers to the iphone version for those without the iPad version in a future update?

Hey Alec,
it looks like the game crashes after the 1rst mission when loading the map (iPad 3, 5.1.1). Not bought it yet, just relaying french appstore comments.

Edit:

Game bought on iPad 3, 5.1.1
It effectively crashes right after the end of the 1rst mission on the transition screen with the story.
And when I relaunch it, it crashes at the map
Tried with closing all active apps in the task bar, the same. and rebooting the iPad too.

game looks incredible, but Alec, you got to fix this quickly or you'll get tons of 1 star comments!

Il be nice about it, but I'm not happy.

I would have expected much better customer support, I bought it on the iphone for a reason but now cannot get the full experience?

I believe I deleted the comment you're quoting, reason being that I spoke too soon about this. We're still undecided on what we're going to do. We want some exclusive content for the iPad and we want to reward people who purchase both versions with further bonuses, but we aren't sure how that will play out yet. Sorry! We are jamming pretty hard on getting a new update out that fixes the issue mentioned below, so that's priority #1. It's unlikely that we'll have more info about the future of these towers until then. Of course, feel free to send additional questions my way, and I'll answer as best I can! Thank you

Thanks for letting us know about this. Always weird to see issues like this crop up after extensive testing - I bought FR2HD last night and haven't encountered this, but apparently a handful of gamers are running into this problem.

The temporary solution is to turn on Airplane Mode. It looks like there's some issue with the game "calling home" for Game Center. Airplane Mode will disable your network connection and fix this. In the meantime, we are hard at work getting v1.1 ready to submit to permanently fix this problem.

Thank you for your patience! Let me know if that doesn't help for any reason.

Default iphone to ipad data xfer

Hey Alec,

You mentioned that with iexplorer you cant move current iphone saves to the new ipad.

I did it and copied over the whole documents folder (including the hidden files)

I started it up and everything loaded fine but when I started a game on "Home on Derange" (my goto money making lvl) it crashes on wave 34 then jumps back about three waves, then will crash again once I reload and get to 34.


Also was I right in copy the whole documents folder or is there a better/cleaner way.

Thanks!!

Hurry up for the patch, because you get a lot of angry comments.

That should do the trick. Try restarting your device to free up some memory and then play that map again. Should work flawlessly.

Thanks for the update!
