    Turns out it is privately owned... I'd be willing to bet that the DeLorean in the game looked just like this one. I'm surprised the Dev hasn't been on here lately to keep us up to date on whats happening.

    I emailed Ethan about this to ask him for an update and he was kind enough to offer a speedy reply:

    There has been a delay in the game for at least a few more weeks because of some problems uncovered that need to be fixed/changed. I will come on there and post about it soon. Sorry for the lack of communication on this!

    Yeah, I was beginning to wonder whether Apple decided to spoil our fun again and reject another game we're anticipating... for whatever reason. Thankfully it's still alive and well :D

    I think the lack of any media is whats keeping this thread a little quiet. Maybe once some pictures and a video are uploaded, more people will show an interest.

    That would be both awesome to see if that gets through iTunes' approval process and disturbing to actually see.

    It also needs Biff or a flying version of Biff in a hijacked DeLorean who can change the outcome if he escapes.

    Guys -

    Sorry for the delay in this game! I've decided to make it much better than originally planned. We've got some model DeLoreans to use for the graphics, some nice scrolling backgrounds for the different timezones, and some other cool goodies, like player-to-player competition, etc. At this point it looks more like an end-of-May release now because I've redone most of the game. There is no legal action by Universal on this, so no need to worry there. We've just decided to take our time and actually make it a GOOD iPhone game instead of something quick and dirty.

    I'll try to keep you all more up-to-date in the next few weeks and finally post some screenshots.

    Thanks for the continued support of this!

    Ethan

    Thanks for the update. A bunch of us have been anxiously waiting so this sounds like it will be worth it.
