    Well I would say that Secret Exit's super power is free 3D rotation. ngmoco:) doesn't seem to have a single super power except for every game they touch being a great fit for the platform and a fun game (IMHO). I really look forward to more news on the subject.

    Maybe "super powers" mean that it's a superhero game they're making?

    I know; they meant it for something else. But who knows.

    Secret Exit's power is 3D.
    ngmoco would be................smooth?....................publishing? I dunno.

    I tried to play with it in Photoshop to see if I could find hidden details. Found nothing :( Shocker huh?

    But you can see the details clearer:

    I'm thinking maybe each step = a level?
    And you have to climb to get the golden orchid?
    I dunno just guessing.

    are these going to be part of rolando or are there going to be three different apps?

    they will probably use the 3.0 new software and make them add-ons you have to purchase but was just checking to see if anyone knew

    I can't wait for the updates to Rolando and the sequels! I am surprised that they announced two sequels at once. I wonder if the sequels will use the new 3.0 SDK features like peer to peer for a co-op or race.
    As for the Secret exit collaboration, that will be cool. I can just imagine Rolando meets Zen Bound. It would be like a 3D Rolando with the Bound soundtrack. Seriously though, I wonder what the collaboration app will be.
