Probably because 99¢ doesn't pay for free updates for eternity.

It's totally optional, and would you not be content with NO more updates? Just imagine its not there and you'll be fine.

What Hodapp said. Its completely optional and you're not forced to pay anything beyond the initial purchase price unless you desire to. Bike Baron is and will always be full game with all the content when played with the titular character Baron

I usually loathe the idea of in app purchases, but this time it is different. you guys have obviously worked tirelessly providing what, 3 major updates over the last month? i have never seen so many significant updates. the levels and general gameplay are completely addicting and i guarantee that as soon as this update is released I will make my first in app purchase.

on a side note, however, it would be nice to see some bugs addressed in future updates. multitasking doesnt work properly now (freezes and you often have to kill the app fully to get it to work again; it just hangs for about 20 seconds. not a massive deal but definitely worth fixing. also sometimes it is possible for your bike tire to get stuck in an object.

We'd love to fix this one but saddly its, at least not for now, impossible for us. The physics inaccuracies are the price we have to pay for pretty visuals and more complex levels... And the physics inaccuracies due to speed are what causes the sinking wheel

As for the freezing. I hope the update's optimizations help in it, but its probably related to low memory of the device.. Bike Baron eats quite a bit of it

Have any of you guys noticed that there is John Gore from Minigore in Bike Baron as well? Can you find him?

What? Where?

Just a question about the Santa IAP. Do I get to ride as Santa? And if that's what it is, is he an easy character like domovoi or a difficult one like Baron?

Am certainly buying the IAP even if it is just a santa sticker stuck somewhere on the options menu. Have got wayyyyyy more playtime out of Bike Baron than what I should have at 1 dollar.

Just figured out you guys have a blog. And that you are running a contest for user created levels. ANd there's an iPad as a prize? Why is no one making any noise about it?

Also... you guys should make a Baron action figure! Really, you should.

I don't care when this dev adds in app purchase, because it's not that you NEED to purchase it. I purchase them anyway just to support this developer, because they are awesome.
