    Yeah, got the mail. :D But will NZ people get it earlier than others? What if already 1000 NZ people download the game?

    NZ people? who are they? Anyway we decided it will go free for 1 day and we get as many downloads as we can during this day:)
    -----------------------

    Hope you're all doing great!

    Save Toshi has been approved and will be available on the app-store starting Monday, Dec 20! To celebrate the event in the spirit of Christmas the game will launch as FREE for one day, and that is when you all need to be telling friends and followers to download it (don't worry, we will send a second alert on Monday to help you remember).

    We couldn't have made such a great game without your help so I'd like to thank you all again for the awesome beta work you made on this game. We will keep sending builds for beta testing for the upcoming updates so stay tuned:)

    If youre interested to see our media kit for the game, here is a link to our press-kit: http://www.nitako.com/wp/games/save_toshi/save-toshi-press-release/

    Thank you for everything and have a Happy Holidays!

    Hello!

    What a week that was:)
    Save Toshi is out for a week now, and the reactions were getting are amazing.

    The game's top placements on the app store so far are:

    * #34 free iPad games in The US store
    * #81 paid iPad action game in the US
    * #8 free all iPhone games in China
    * #34 paid iPad game in Japan

    This is far more then what we expected for a game launch during the busiest Christmas the app store has ever seen. Thanks to you people, the game has 4.5 star rating in the US store, after 12,000 downloads in only 2 days!

    The first update for 'Save Toshi' is has been submitted. The only major additions to this version are the new backgrounds (1 for each pack) and the 4th level pack (which most of you already played).

    I need you to download this upcoming build (same place, same password), and tell me what you think of the new backgrounds. Also, please play the game and point out any issues you may encounter in this build before we release it to the store.

    Now go, save Toshi (once again:)
    Best, Noam

    BTW, The next update has something pretty awesome that will be implemented, it's still a secret stay tuned!

    It should. You can easily check it since Each pack now has a distinct different background.

    1.Still old icon?
    2.Subscribe is frozen to me
    3.Achievement first outfit still locked after the 2nd pack unlocked
    4.Got "Murder On The Dance Floor" (A popup shows), but it still locked in the OF Achievement list.
    5.The background in the 2nd pack (in game) is a lotus pool, however the background in the level selection is still the old one. Should it be changed as well?
    6.When make new build later, please name it with a new name, such Toshi_beta or so, which won't replace the one downloaded from App Store (keep both official release version and beta one)

    Excuse me for the late reply, had to take a day off for personal reasons, but now I'm back.

    I did also send emails with the links, but if you still have a trouble locating it drop me a line and I will send it again to your PM.

    Great work Alex!
    1) iCon looks great in 512x512, after you scale it down, the glow effect might seem like a blur to you (even though I don't see it). I will look into it again.
    2) The frozen subscribe is being fixed right now.
    3) being fixed
    4) This is an open feint bug, we are looking into it
    5) Already fixed
    6) OK, we will do it on a future update

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the reply. I have awaiting for your reply for a whole day. :D

    EDIT: Yes, the icon really looks good in iTunes. (One question: Do you see something else in Toshi's hair? Like another layer)

    2. Can you add a PROGRESS RESET button in the menu?

    3. Game Center!!! My New Year Wish!
