Greetings.
My name is Patric Karlsson and work as the CEO at Resolution Interactive. First, thank you all for the very useful and constructive comments in regards to Clusterball Arcade.

Just want to say that we today have uploaded a patch that will take care of memory and audio issues as well as that we have added a infoscreen. Also, we reworded the landing screen where we mention the importance of creating a online profile to upload highscores.

If any of you have some ideas on what we should add to the followup title to this game, please let us know. Also, what do you think of the ghostplay?

just a caution. in my opinion at least, the texture resolution in the release version is at least 1/2 the quality of the earlier videos released before the game launched.

you'd expect that the game would be "faster" at least because of this, but I don't see it.

Kind of regretting this purchase as I'm sure itl be 99 cents in a month rofl.

but yea, just look at the ship and track, the textures went from crisp to mush on most things

I'm really loving this game. It's hard, but that's good. A lot of iPhone games get easy fast. I don't see me beating this anytime soon. They need to clear up their description. They say there's ten stages, but they don't mention that each stage has multiple tracks. This game is much bigger than I thought it was. All around, it's pretty awesome. I'm impressed.

Wow! I just bought this game and it is really cool!! By first impression this must be one of the best games for iPhone so far. Really cool with the global ranking. Watch out for the Dude in top of the scores. A classic!? I think so...

It's great to see this is finally out - I've been waiting for this one for a while now! That said, it's disappointing to see it launched at $10, when so many other apps launched at that price have since been slashed WAY down ... I'd love to see arn or blakespot (or whoever does the review) address this directly: in your opinion, is the game actually worth the asking price? I mean, when other racing-type apps are going for a fraction of the price (Cro-Mag Rally comes to mind - $1.99, down from $10, right?) is Clusterball slick enough (production wise: graphics, audio, controls) and does it have enough depth + replay value to warrant the (comparitively) high price? Does it feel like a port, or does it actually feel like a 'made for iPhone' game?

Anyway, I'm looking forward to the review!
