    Shadows work properly for dynamic objects :) (for example the red plank is a dynamic object, when you drive over it will rotate) Can't wait to show you these shadows in motion, they look SEXY!

    This is how the race finished screen looks:

    The goals change according to level. Achieving goals gets you stars and stars allow you to unlock new levels, think of the stars as a currency.

    crex & B34$t: The first release version doesn't have additional characters.

    As for the Minigore questions, I'll answer them on the Minigore Zombies thread later.

    Price will be very nice surprise. Is that your way of saying free with IAP. For me personally I really hope not, much rather pay a one time fee. Although I can understand that from a business view, IAP can be more profitable.

    Nope, it won't be free. We need to feed our families somehow ;)

    One more hint: The price is made up of these elements: 0, 9, 9, C, E, N, T, S.

    gwet17: The shadows are enabled at least on iPad 2 and possibly on the upcoming iPod touch 5th gen and iPhone 5.

    On iPhone 4 and iPod touch 4th gen the dynamic shadows run at around 15-30 fps depending on the selected level. We're still thinking about what to do about that. There is a possibility of leaving them on for levels where it is fast or optimizing further.
