    Actually, they're already in there!

    You may have denied Push Notifications when the app asked you if you wanted them. Just go to Settings on your device, scroll down to Midnight Star and turn on notifications for the game.

    Thanks for responding, but i'm wondering has the game been optimized for the iPhone 5? I'm running on OS 8.1.3 and I'm having framerate drops, specially when enemies jump in the air and I try to shoot them. Also will this come to Android?

    It (the game) should be on the nav amongst your other apps in base settings for the device in your master list, not in the main notifications setting.

    But what version of ios are you on?

    Yes, we've done some work to down some of the effects to better take advantage of the 5's power, but you may see some frame drops on that device. We'll continue to hone that as we make point releases though.

    As far as Android, we haven't announced anything, but hope to soon. (sorry about the non-answer answer :cool:)

    So... how do you scroll through weapons in the armory? I tap and swipe but nothing happens. All I can do is switch between categories of weapons.

    I upgraded the armory today and supposedly got new weapons I should be able to buy but I can't scroll to them...

    The TA challenge is quite fun.
    I'm in first place right now, two attempts remaining.

    I checked there too, only thing there is to allow the game over cellular. I'm on 8.1.3 and non jailbreak.

    I also tried re installing game and that did not work.

    Seeing that exceedingly few developers in the history of gaming have announced separately and formally that there will NOT be a version for a specific platform, that is pretty much an answer answer ;)

    It's really strange that they've put JB protection on a free game. I literally see no point. If someone is going to go through the effort to mod the game to cheat somehow, this protection is probably not even going to register as a blip to them as an obstacle.

    Agree, we were just being careful as we launched. Fix is already submitted!

    That's very odd (and new). Tell me what device you're on, what ios version and if you've tried swiping reeeeaaal slow after pushing "Get Guns."

    I'm about to take my 1st turn, so watch out!

    Also, I just put up the 1st in our weekly series "Beat A Developer," which happens to be me (thewizard) this weekend. It's got 40 spots, so it's a big Challenge, but 11 spots are already filled. Check out the details here and you'll see an admin message about it in the game with a link (or if you're searching for Challenges in the game, it is the cryptically titled "Beat A Developer Weekend."

    Every gun has an exp bonus so do I get the bonus per kill or after the end of the level?

    So should I not even try since Amusing Grace seems to be showing off all their skills in every challenge? :|

    I tried swiping slow and it still isn't working... Should the guns be spinning? It looks like they start to spin but then freeze. I tried quitting the app and restarting my device but it still isn't working. IPad Air, latest OS.

    If I delete and reinstall the app will my progress be saved? I signed up for an account.
