    So if we have an iPhone 4 and we want retina, we have to buy the hd version? Sorry I'm really confused on which I should buy. I don't own an iPad. Help

    If you read this thread, you'll see the new (non-HD) version was supposed to have retina support already but apparently does not. The developer says this will be fixed in an update.

    well this is confusing as ron carmel him self who is a dev at 2d boy the game is supposed to be retina on the ipt4 and ip4 period. royce beat me to it! :) and all hd and non hd means is HD is IPAD, so this should have nothing to do with it.

    For the love of... it's been stated about 6 or so times already, both versions support retina. If you're playing and it doesn't appear in retina at the moment, that's a bug and will be fixed. Can a mod just edit the original post with this info? Twelve pages of useless posts already.

    Yes, I've seen many posters say it should have Retina. I've seen nothing from the developer to indicate that the graphics will be upscaled further. They haven't confirmed that the screenshots posted in this threads are actually of lower resolution than intended, just encouraged people to send them screenshots if WE believe there is something wrong.

    Since some, both developers and iOS journalists, use "Retina" in a relative sense, there's no guarantee the devs intended for the graphics of the iPhone version to be more high-rez than their current state.

    Let's take it to PMs, to avoid cluttering up the thread :)

    Back on topic: if there is anyone out there still on some kind of rickety fence, take the plunge. World of Goo on the iPhone plays wonderfully. For .99 cents, it might just be one of the best values in the App Store.

    This whole HD and non-HD thing just confuses customers. They should never even bother releasing a seperate app they should have only made the HD app universal and left it at that.

    Oh well still going to buy it when the non-HD version comes out as I do t have an iPad and for the $0.99 sale.

    wow. people are not understanding

    world of goo hd - is the universal ipad version (HD IS IPAD)

    world of goo - is for ipods and iphones

    BOTH versions are supposed to be retina enabled they are borked at the moment but will be fixed.

    so if you buy world of goo or hd which is pointless unless you have an ipad both have retina. they just made them separate apps.
