    ^^^ that sucks. Why are devs releasing their games on Wednesday night/Thursday morning? Why hold your game back? Only the most hardcore of iOS gamers know that Wednesday is "release day", the casual player doesn't really care. So why wait and take chances competing with the big guys(EA, square....) on Wednesday when the app could be released today?

    I'm not saying thats what this dev is doing, but I've seen alot of devs have a game ready and announce a date of release like theyd sell more starting on Wednesday or something. This platform doesn't work that way. Get the content out ASAP so we can throw money at you ASAP!

    Sorry, but that's just wrong. I have to say the only day I ever buy games is Thursday, when the rush of new games comes in. If it's any other day, honestly it goes into my wish list or out of my mind. :/

    There's been no update, it's not appearing under search terms used on the app store (infinity blade showed up about five days before release on the stores autofill, although wasn't available to purchase) it won't be out Wednesday.

    Last we heard it had been submitted, then that changes would be made.

    Since then, nothing. We're all aware that this site is the place to go first for app news, I would presume the developer does too. I suggest that without the lack of any further input that the thread just gets closed. Too many times we see that the forum topic shows a thread in bold that we were following for a game that we were looking forward to, only to find it's someone else gravedigging and asking when it's going to be released to no avail.

    Lack of input from developer = loss of publicity. Let it be in their best interests to keep the public informed instead of clutching at straws.

    You have over 2000 posts on A site dedicated to iPhone gaming...I'd consider you a hardcore/knowledgable iOS Gamer. Buy how many of us are there? Are these wednesday-waiting app developers aiming towards us or is there more to it? Are they being forced to wait? Too many questions and not enough answers....

    On topic: this game is still on my waiting for list, probably won't be coming off any time soon. Where is the publicity?

    Okay, since the devs are a little busy perfecting this game, would it help if I posted some screenshots to tie you guys over for a little bit?

    Oh...so it was withdrawn from submission? I was sure that it was submitted at one point. And yes, pictures when ever you have time would be great.

    Oh cool at least it's still coming out, I'd almost gave up on smuggle truck as last I heard was it had been submited then no release came? I emailed the dev's but had no reply. Well it's good to hear it's still on it's way.

    Hey no fair. But still it's the same game just with different stuff in the back isnt it?
    I'm enjoying it anyway no matter wether it's people or animals.
