    Finally!

    As I love all your games, I cannot wait to get my hands on this one. Now my question: will this game run on my iPad 2 with iOS 7?

    WOW! what can i say about Does not Commute... Visually Spectacular! does come to mind. Looking forward to this game.

    Mediocre Henrik, you definitely got another "Smash Hit" on your hands. The visuals/environment of the game look fantastic. The cars driving at night with their lights on, Very nicely done. The fact that you can drive a speed boat is great, and not limited to just the roads.

    When released, will the game also have the Premium In-App Purchase option, like in Smash Hit? Or maybe a Free/Premium version? So that way i would have a chance to purchase it when it is released on the iTunes Store. For personal reasons, i am in a small group of people who won't have the convenience to access the internet via Wi-Fi.

    Thanks!

    Hey thanks everyone!

    Yes it will be playable on an iPad 2 running iOS7, but some graphics features will be turned off.


    The game will have the exact same payment model that Smash Hit did, so just a one in app purchase for checkpoints and that's it! Just like with Smash Hit you can play the whole game for free, but you will always need to start from the very beginning.


    Only two more days now! :D

    It's a reality based simulator. It perfectly replicates my everyday commute to and from work.

    Purpose..

    I guess you could call it a karma based traffic jam simulator. Its not that hard to explain, but we don't want to rob people of the experience of discovering for themselves how it works, that realization in itself seems to be a lot of fun. :)

    Well as a New Yorker, traffic is one of my specialties, so I'll check it out.

    I watched the video clip. The sounds and voices really give a creative and unique difference to the car type games.
    I look forward to playing!

    Can't wait to unlock this one! I think it looks like a sophisticated traffic time management game with specific goals.

    Watched the gameplay video. It looks really promising!

    I have a question. Will there be an option to disable the checkpoints? For example, I bought the checkpoint IAP, but at one point I wanted to disable the checkpoints.

    Hello and thanks!

    No.. honestly that never crossed our minds as a feature, to my knowledge we never got any requests for that with Smash Hit (our previous game which had the very same concept) but I guess I could sort of see why you'd want it.

    What you could do is to re-install the app after the purchase and not do a "restore purchase". There's nothing stopping you from starting from the beginning though, even if you have checkpoints :)
