On the 4s really rocks with the new graphics.

Now I hope they'll add some kind of challenges (epoch's achievements are a bit lame), in the form of multiplayer or even just a new mode for solo with some sort of ranking system.
Oh and the option to skip at least easy mode if you want to jump straight into the fray. Say you're reinstalling the game and lost progress, you have to do again all the levels before reaching hard.

Hope they'll continue to support it in any form anyway, it's a very unique game, it's incredibly fun, has tons of lore behind it and so much personality!

Yup - it still has retina display on my iPhone 4s, but disappointingly not on my iPad 3 despite the promises of the update.

The update is definitely an Epoch fail.

Second that. Loved the game and uploaded it again to my new iPad to play it again and no retina display. Hope this is corrected soon.

Yeah. By now I was hoping we'd have an "Oops - well fix it in an upcoming release" from the devs.

Know a lot of people complained about the lack of retina after the update but this no longer even runs on my 3GS. Just get a black screen after it loads. Sucks.

We'll have to wait until some devs really push the processor to see what it's capable of.
The benchmarks would suggest otherwise. In just about every benchmark the iPad 2 is as fast if not faster than the ipad3, due to that retina screen. When they run the gl benchmark offscreen as in a fixed 720p res, then the iPad3 crushes the ipad2. So when devs say this is only possible on a ipad3 they full of crap, pure marketing bs.

I don't know if anyone else has (I'm going to assume they did), but I translated the message you get at the end of the game from binary to English.

•••Spoiler:  In the event of catastrophic failure at the tower the princess is to be moved to backup cryo facility C9473.

You're welcome.

I was finally going to jump the gun and buy this game, but the lack of retina for my new iPad 3 makes it a total buzz kill. Going to wait.
What a shame. All the extra eye candy looks so amazing and doesn't get the justice it deserves right now.
