Apple Unleashes Massive Number of App Updates

posted July 3rd, 2009 10:27 PM EST by arn in iPhone games, iPod touch games, News

665457Apple must be catching up before the July 4th holiday, because they have unleashed a massive number of app updates today.

Here are a collection of notable ones. We haven't had a chance to try them all out yet, so are relying on the developer's notes.

  • Circuit Strike One ($0.99) - This zero-gravity shooter has received 19 fixes/improvements, many of which address the previously reported framerate drops and performance issues. It also allows users to individually reduce the visual effects to balance performance.
  • UniWar ($0.99) - One of the best turn-based strategy games just got better with a 3-minute "Quick Play" mode for online play, map fixes, campaign mode improvements, and many other fixes/adjustments.
  • Tyrian ($1.99) - Fixed the weapon upgrade issue found in the first version.
  • Isotope ($2.99) - 3.0 fixes that allow the game to run smoothly again in the latest iPhone update as well as a number of fixes and features.
  • Doodle Jump ($0.99) - Bug fixes, performance optimizations, and... a Jet Pack!
  • Sparta ($0.99) - The 1.3 update adds a new shop system to allow you to buy new weapons, armor and health potions.
  • Must.Eat.Birds. ($0.99) - Fixed the stability/crashing bug that several people had reported.

    I had 96 updates. Anyway, I would say Mega Man II deserves mention. I was not expecting to ever see an update. Capcom proved me wrong and really improved the experience.

    Wow , my 6 updates was pathetic! I wonder why apple suddenly approved everything? Did try finally sit down to go through everything? Or have they been trying, but finally said "to hell with it!" and just released the updates without review? Then again, who cares, my favorite apps got updated!

    Wow! I had 4 updates, then as it was downloading it jumped up to 8. So I had to download and re-sync. Then I checked again as I was shutting down for the night and had another 11?! Holy smokes!! My son (7 1/2) is happy that Space Monkey is finally working again.
