Allseits gewollt, aber von den meisten Spielehersteller in ein proprietäres, geschlossenes Netzwerk gezwängt, das mehr Limitierungen enthält als Vorzüge. Wir denken beispielsweise an die großen Player im Konsolenbereich: Xbox Live oder das PlayStation Network. Von Wii Connect möchte ich erst gar nicht anfangen. Alles schön verschlossen, ohne zentralen Anknüpfungspunkt. Es wäre natürlich viel zu komfortabel gleich zu sehen, wer von meinen Facebook-Kontakten sich eventuell auch für das gleiche Videospiel begeistern kann. Nein, überall der selbe Mist mit sich endlos wiederholenden Freundesanfragen inklusive Kontaktverwaltung. Mit Facebook Connect bietet zumindest ‘die eine Seite’ eine erstmals sehr nützliche Schnittstelle an, um sich weltoffen zu präsentieren. Davon Gebrauch macht jetzt die bereits Mitte Februar angekündigte ‘Social Platform’ OpenFeint. Von den Machern des ehemals populären App Store-Spiels, veröffentlichen seine Entwickler Jason Citron und Danielle Cassley jetzt unter dem gleichnamigen Brand die ‘soziale Schicht’ für iPhone-Spiele.

Surprisingly enough, iFart made it in this list. Can you believe it? Out of the 35,000+ Apps in the App Store, iFart is one of the top apps. Below is a full list of the top 20 paid apps of all-time.

In less than a full year of existence, Apple and the iPhone have managed to make mobile applications as commonplace as an iTunes music purchase, and the App Store’s popularity continues to grow. The total tally of iPhone applications in the iPhone AppStore was estimated to be somewhere in the neighborhood of 25,000 in March 2009. And, with thousands more iPhone applications hitting the AppStore on a monthly basis, Apple’s success with their integrated mobile application delivery model will likely continue. No wonder everyone and their grandmother are trying to launch mobile application stores of their own. For the record, it took Apple six whole months to reach the 500-million milestone.

Si tratta del 15° episodio e si chiama “A New Home”.. In questo nuovo episodio abbiamo a disposizione una nuova isola, con la possibilità di tornare a quella precedente in qualsiasi momento. Nella nuova casa possiamo notare un piccolo bagno dove gli abitanti faranno i propri bisognini. Sono state aggiunte anche nuove espressioni come sbadigli, “mal di pancia” etc. Notiamo anche la presenza del misterioso uovo che come dice l’autore “è il segnale d’inizio delle nuove avventure”, tanto è vero che il prossimo episodio si chiamarà “The Tyrannosaurus Stricks Back!” Grazie Fabiano, Stefano, Simone e tutti gli altri utenti che l’hanno segnalato Tue, 28 Apr 2009 14:10:57 GMT http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Ispazio/~3/qBgN8ERdjfA/ iPhone iSpazio (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://www.iphonesavior.com/2009/04/pocket-god-gets-new-home-hauls-in-over-half-a-million-dollars.html   After fifteen consecutive weekly updates, the immensely popular iPhone app Pocket God, which took only one week to create, has shifted into new territory providing the bite size pygmy islanders with a brand new home in Episode 15. The new island environment has been something faithful followers of the game have been pushing for since the app launched back in early January. The latest game play sets the pygmies up on a new island complete with an old fashioned outhouse featuring farting sounds. Extended waiting for the turd closet causes an implosion too dumb for words. But that's the kind of humor that makes Pocket God such a hoot. Users are now given the opportunity to name each pygmy and to follow their personal stats, two upgrades included in Episode 14 that fans of game have been anxiously awaiting.

What she means by 'our people' is specifically Pacific islanders. But US creators Bolt Creative argue the game does not depict any particular nationality. "How do you think people would react if you created a game where you were God and you could create and kill as many Mexicans as you wanted? Or Asians?" wrote Howard, who lives in the US. In Pocket God, the user takes on the role of an "all-powerful god ruling over a miniature tribe of primitive islanders". This $.99-cent juggernaut which has sold over 850 units since it's launch on January 9, 2009 Thu, 30 Apr 2009 08:17:40 GMT http://www.iphonesavior.com/2009/04/pocket-god-app-accused-of-being-totally-degrading-.html iPhone Savior (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/appleiphoneapps/~3/lsLBRzeEhY0/ If you are an iPhone owner who hasn’t heard of Pocket God by now, it is about time you check it out.  The game has been at or near the top of the top paid applications list at the App Store basically ever since it has been released.  Being in the limelight definitely has its perks, but as always, it also has its drawbacks.  According to Pocket Gamer via Brisbane Times, Pocket God is now being labeled as racist game by some groups. Pocket God allows you to be “God” to a group of islanders.  You are able to manipulate nearly every aspect of the island, including the villagers themselves in a variety of ways.  You can feed them coconuts, strike them with lighting, or even feed them to the sharks.  It is this behavior along with the depictions of the islanders that has some people all fired up.

Si tratta del 16° episodio e si chiama “The Tyrannosaurus Strikes Back”.   In questo nuovo episodio finalmente potremo utilizzare quell’uovo che farà spuntare un piccolo dinosauro che a sua volta chiamerà “la mamma” che mangerà qualche abitante. Inoltre dovrebbero essere stati risolti tutti i problemi di crash. E’ stata già inviata la prossima versione, che dovrebbe essere rilasciata tra circa una settimana. Buon divertimento!

Developer Bolt Creative has decided to try and take Pocket God to a whole new level by introducing much more intriguing elements to the lives of the islanders.  They announced that a new trilogy of updates would be the first step in doing just that, and once the trilogy was over, the price would be raised to $1.99 to counter the amount of work they are putting into the game.  The first two updates of the trilogy have now been released, leaving only about one more week for you to pick the game up at $.99.  Of course, all updates are free for anyone who already owns the game.

In questa nuova versione è stata introdotta la possibilità di aiutare i nostri omini a combattere il tirannosauro. Una volta richiamato il dinosauro infatti, comparirà una barra di energia ed una lancia. Non dovremo fare altro che spostare la lancia al di sopra di un abitante ed automaticamente partirà il combattimento.   Per “uccidere” il dinosauro bisognerà colpirlo diverse volte, e nel frattempo non è detto che questo non riesca a mangiarvi! Sonstate introdotte anche nuove statistiche ed il motore del gioco è stato ottimizzato.   Grazie FRAtello91, iHacker ed Andy1986 per le segnalazioni Wed, 20 May 2009 06:54:17 GMT http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Ispazio/~3/ku_8_RKQa2E/ iPhone iSpazio (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://www.allaboutiphone.net/2009/05/app-review-pocket-god/ Having a set of minions to dominate and control has been a staple in gameplay since kids first got pets, dolls and younger siblings to knock around. Indeed, the Sims has become probably the most lucrative video game in the world by expanding on this simple premise until it burst. The iPhone is an excellent platform for this type of game. It provides the user with a touch screen to manipulate their subjects in a pocketable device that allows users to indulge in a spot of torture whenever they have a few minutes to spare. Pocket God from Bolt Creative gives you a couple of tropical islands to paddle around in and half a dozen or so villagers to torment with your godly powers. It’s just a shame the developers forget to include a rather vital component. First impressionsThe first thing to strike you about Pocket God are the graphics.

We first took a look at the game back in March. The game builds where PapiJump left off and the result is a simple but remarkably addictive game. Since our initial coverage, Lima Sky has added a number of features including: direction shooting, facebook friends leaderboard, monster sound warning and two new monsters. In the latest 1.2.1 update, the company even added a cross-over easter egg that should please fans. Lima Sky's Igor Pusenjak also reports that they have more surprises in store for this game as well as in Bolt Creative's Pocket God.

Di seguito trovate anche alcuni screenshot del “nuovo mondo” per cui se non volete rovinarvi la sorpresa, andate prima ad aggiornare il gioco e poi tornate a leggere.   Come anticipato, l’onda gigante sommergerà completamente i nostri indigeni che si ritroveranno sott’acqua e con la bocca chiusa. Abbiamo un solo modo per attaccarli e questo è rappresentato dalla statua nell’angolo a sinistra. Ecco cosa accadrà:   E’ già in corso di sviluppo il prossimo episodio quindi Stay Tuned!

The spear gun is incredibly violent, it's perfect! Pocket God’s developers, Bolt Creative, came out with an update again sometime yesterday, staying close to their update a week average. This week was the ability to create a huge tsunami to sink the island. You simply swipe your finger over the ocean a few times (exactly how you would swipe your finger over the clouds to change the weather) and the huge wave comes and wipes out the village. But that isn’t all. This takes you to an underwater area where your Oogs are still living, but holding their breath. In the bottom left corner is a statue of some kind of creature with it’s mouth open and a spear sticking out. This turned out to be a spear gun.

I believe the iPhone needs more games like Real Racing.  Games that can offer deep, immersive gameplay, but can also give you that quick moment of gaming bliss, games like Vogster Entertainment’s Robocalypse – Mobile Mayhem.

Per avviare il minigioco quindi, dovremo lanciare i pigmei al di sopra delle nuvole. A quel punto, ci basterà spostare l’ominio verso destra o sinistra (tramite l’accelerometro) in maniera tale da farlo saltare da una nuvola all’altra, andando sempre più in alto. Bisognerà evitare 3 tipologie di nubi particolari che: Ooga Jump contiene 4 livelli ed una classifica dedicata. Possiamo dire che con questo aggiornamento Pocket God ri-acquista tutto il suo valore.

This week’s feature of choice? Pocket God’s arguably first mini game with Ooga Jump! Grand Switcheroo! Remember when Doodle Jump borrowed some Pocket God images for one of its updates. Well I think it’s payback time now that Pocket God technically drew this update’s inspiration from Doodle Jump. Activating Ooga Jump From either the original or dinosaur island, lift any of your pygmies up to the blue skies. You’ll then see one layer of clouds. Let go and let the pygmy bounce off the cloud, from here the game starts. Ooga jump is accelerometer controlled by the way. Once bouncing, you can’t employ any other feature. The goal is to reach the highest you can of course.

Check for updates in iTunes if you haven't already, it seems like Apple pushed a massive amount of updates to the App Store this evening including four substantial updates for games we have covered in the past: Harbor Master, 99¢ - New level "Smugglers' Reef" added. Players will need to unload differently colored cargo at two different ports before sending ships off screen. Also included is Twitter integration to brag about your scores. Pocket God, 99¢ - New Doodle Jump-like mini game. Carry an islander up to one of the clouds, bounce them off of it, and see how much higher you can jump. I Dig It, 99¢ - Three new challenges added as well as the ability to finally buy a 1up from the in-game store, giving a little bit more flexibility than the permanent death in the previous version.

Your arsenal to dispatch the swarms of furries consists of your standard machine gun, a shotgun that you can pick up from a crate, and an exploding crate to inflict area effect damage. There are four types of enemies in game, three different sizes of furries and a flaming furry that runs a little faster. The standard furries come in three sizes.

You will be able to take a pygmy and bury him alive, only to see him returning later as a brain-eating zombie… All in all, if you still haven’t, you should join all the people who already grabbed Pocket God.

WRONG! Think again. What We Got? Zombies How To’s To make the first zombie. Tap on the grave twice, dump a pygmy in, tap soil back in, VOILAH. The first zombie eats the rest of the pygmies ’til they transform. Once tapped, they poof to air. Nothing else is active on the island but expect the next update to have some new functions.

Siamo arrivato al numero 27 e questa volta si intitola “Pygmy Ghosts”. E’ un’aggiornamento che, insieme all’episodio precedente, si abbina perfettamente al mese di ottobre con la festa di Halloween. Oltre agli zombie infatti, adesso potremo avedere dei fantasmi! Se un pigmeo muore nel cimitero, riapparirà sottoforma di fantasma fluttuante. Potremo muoverelo e farlo interagire con gli altri pigmei, spaventandoli a morte. Potremo anche prendere un omino ancora in vita e volare via, portandolo nella dimensione dei fantasmi, sparendo in un’intensa luce bianca. Sempre in questo episodio è stato aggiunto il supporto all’In-App Purchase dove troviamo le prime Skin pack per il T-Rex. Queste ovviamente hanno un costo i 0,79€.

As a pioneer of episodic content updates, the "Good Will Haunting" update marks the 26th addition to the original game. The free "Good Will Haunting" update introduces the Pygmy Ghost: This update also marks the beginning of a new era of in-app customization via optional downloadable content (DLC) packs. For 99¢ in the latest update you can customize the look of the T-Rex on the island with various skins, hats, and even tattoos. Developer Dave Castelnuovo hopes to ideally include one additional DLC pack alongside each free update to the app, provided it doesn't slow down the release of said update. The reason to include these optional paid upgrades is, of course, to fund future development of Pocket God, but as Tue, 06 Oct 2009 23:53:19 GMT http://toucharcade.com/2009/10/06/latest-pocket-god-update-includes-customization-dlc/ Touch Arcade (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://theappera.com/2009/10/07/pocket-god-ships-out-good-will-haunting-in-app-purchasing/ October 7th, 2009 James Isabel Pocket God‘s latest installment is something you’d call a landmark.

Si tratta dell’episodio 28, dedicato ovviamente ad Halloween che vede l’aggiunta di nuove opzioni ed un piccolo miglioramento a livello di prestazioni. In questo capitolo vediamo l’aggiunta di un grosso ragno all’interno dell’isola del cimitero che potremo combattere in modalità singola o in “challenge” contro gli amici. Per iniziare dovremo posizionare il nostro pigmeo nella ragnatela per vedere arrivare un piccolo ragnetto che ci avvolgerà completamente. Con un semplice tap moriremo soffocati e ci trasformeremo in fantasma. Subito dopo arriverà il ragno gigante che dovremo combattere con la lancia in maniera analoga al T-Rex. Sono stati aggiunti anche nuovi contenuti a pagamento tramite l’in-app purchase ed anche in questo caso possiamo vedere che sono tutti ispirati ad Halloween.

We already told you what the update will hold on our preview, so let’s just sit in awe with how cool the decked out Halloween islands look! Happy Halloween! Remember that the skin packs are optional add-ons for a mere $0.99. It doesn’t strip the game off its latest features (like the spider). If I were you, I’d purchase the skin pack though.

Pocket God, one of the most updated apps in the entire App Store, received an update yesterday that added the Barking Spider.  You can call upon the Barking Spider by dropping one of your innocent little pygmies into the spider web and tapping until it is entirely cocooned, and if you tap even more and the cocoon will explode releasing baby spiders.  You are then able to battle the Barking Spider by tossing a spear at it.  The update also adds a Halloween Skin Pack via Thu, 29 Oct 2009 20:21:28 GMT http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/appleiphoneapps/~3/rvJ4XxZBaSo/ Apple iPhone Apps (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://justanotheriphoneblog.com/wordpress/iphone-software/desert-island-apps-2-marcus-hobbs/ Today we ‘re continuing our new series here on Just Another iPhone Blog “ called ‘Desert Island Apps ‘.  It ‘s based on a very long-running and brilliant BBC Radio show called ‘Desert Island Discs ‘.  The premise of Desert Island Discs is simple and wonderful “ a guest is invited to choose the eight musical pieces (originally records) they would take with them if they were stranded on a desert island. In our case of course we ‘re not interested in our guests ‘ choice of music.  What we want to know is which six iPhone apps they would take with them if stranded on an island.

Obviously it’s directly comparable to Pocket God, the super popular classic app. Rather than interacting with “pygmies” you instead have devils, called mugat2 at your disposal. Rather than on an island you’re in hell. Overall this is just an entertainment app, and not really a game. All there is to do is to kill the devils in different ways. You can’t really review Pocket Devil without looking at Pocket God also, so at the bottom is just the verdict and video of Pocket God. Pocket Devil pales in comparison to the feature set of Pocket God which has had 28 updates. In Pocket Devil you can have six little devils on screen maximum. You fire them in from the cannon in the upper corner. There are six ways to dispose of the devils.

In your mission, you’re equipped with five spells: lightning, tornado, fire from heaven, tsunami, and earthquake, and even the direct finger of God. As expected, the little humans are in constant action, doing their stuff ’round the clock like they’re in Dubai before the credit crisis. Eagle-eyed folks of PocketGamer noted similarity of Babel Rising and Pocket God, and we see where they got those – the graphics (and they say gameplay) is/are looks made in the same fashion. The only question is – can Babel Rising repeat the success of Pocket God? There’s a milestone to keep the team motivated. Anyway, the game should be released later in December, when you will be able to grab it for $1.99.

In primo luogo è stata aggiunta la possibilità di abbassare la temperatura, in maniera tale da provocare il congelamento dei pigmei. Allo stesso modo potremo alzare la temperatura facendoli sudare ed in entrambi i casi potremo determinare “la fine” dei poveri pigmei. Tutto questo è reso possibile grazie all’utilizzo del multitouch che ci permetterà di ingrandire o rimpicciolire il sole.

In episode 2-1 of the ngmoshow, GodFinger producer Stephanie Morgan is interviewed to find out what exactly GodFinger is.  The developers behind GodFinger have a lot of experience with god games, namely Black & White and the Fable series, which with that info alone is one of the main reasons why GodFinger is on my radar.  We also get a quick little demo that shows what exactly we all can expect when GodFinger is released on the App Store ‘Soon’.

The Pocket God comic is a collaboration between Bolt Creative and indie comic company Ape Entertainment and will initially be released as a digital four issue mini-series with print issues and a trade paperback coming later. Both companies are excited at the prospect of the comic book, as Bolt Creative is bringing an army of over 2 million fans to the table, while Ape Entertainment and publisher iVerse Media could potentially expose tons more people to the pygmies of Pocket God that may not be iPhone gamers. Pocket God has been an amazing success since its release nearly a year ago. Initially, there was so little to do in Pocket God that we were reluctant to cover it, or even label it a "game". 30 episodes later and Tue, 09 Feb 2010 22:45:02 GMT http://toucharcade.com/2010/02/09/pocket-god-comic-in-the-works/ Touch Arcade (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/IntoMobile/~3/qv1Kzh9HNO8/pocket-god-from-best-selling-iphone-game-to-the-comic-book.html It’s not an everyday’s scene to have a game which leaves the realm of computers/consoles. Tomb Raider, Mario Bross, Doom, Hitman, Halo and Max Payne are rare examples of games that were turned to movies and/or comics. And now we have the first iPhone game, Pocket God, to follow the route. Actually, it’s not the movie we’re talking about but a comic book. Bolt Creative, the company behind the game, has struck a deal with Ape Entertainment to “port” Pocket God onto the printed page. According to the company’s CEO Dave Castelnuov, “A comic book series is a natural extension of the Pocket God brand. Ape Entertainment is the perfect partner to help bring our island to book form.” The four-part comic mini-series will initially be released digitally, with a print version following soon after.

The name of the game is Doodle Jump, it costs 99 cents and it has hit the 3 million paid downloads mark! That’s more than two other popular titles – Flight Control and Pocket God, and I’m sure I’m not the only one impressed with the figure. The best thing is that it comes from an independent development house (as opposed to big name publisher) – Lima Sky. In case you haven’t seen Doodle Jump, it’s an accelerometer based jumper which sees you guiding the Doodler on a “springy journey up, up, up a sheet of graph paper.” Along the way, you’ll be picking up jet packs, avoiding black holes, and blasting baddies with nose balls. It sounds ridiculous, but that’s only until you give it a try.

The game features sharp, colorful graphics that take advantage of the iPhone 4's Retina Display and a mixture of touch and tilt controls that make it easy to wreak havoc on the open seas. Don't let the cute graphics fool you however, as these pirates are vile to the core. With a simple pickup and play style, many interactive ways to dispatch enemies, an upgradeable ship, and some of the most charming visuals I've seen, Plunderland should satisfy your craving to loot and pillage.

Titled Pocket God Comics [99¢], it follows the hilarious (and often destructive) antics of the pygmies from the Pocket God universe. It's a universal app, and has been designed with higher resolution artwork for running on the iPad, although it looks quite sharp and colorful on the iPhone. The initial app purchase comes with the first issue of the comic, which was created by Ape Entertainment, that runs inside of a reader shell that was developed by publisher iVerse Media. This allows future issues to be bought directly from inside the app, and the shell even features a GPS comic book shop locator to find your nearest local retail outlet for purchasing the physical version of Pocket God Comics.

It was one of the first big original iPhone games out there, and more than any other title on the App Store, Bolt Creative has been able to both keep the app popular with constant updates and content additions, and even license the app elsewhere in the form of comics (and presumably other media, if they can swing it). Here's another example of that -- Bolt posted this video of Steve Jobs' favorite new singer songwriter Jonathan Mann (he of the extremely awkward iPhone Antenna song played at the Apple event a while back) singing a new tune about the game and its fans' constant requests for updates and new content. The song was commissioned to show off the new Dance Pack content, which lets your little islanders boogie down for 99 cents. It's cute.

Oh those poor, unfortunate Pygmies. Since January 2009, the original smash hit app, Pocket God, has received 35 updates, bringing shark infested waters, dangerous volcanoes, vicious ice geysers, death inducing ghosts, and ritualistic death to the stoic island Pygmies. Very rarely in their existence have the Pygmies been given an update that didn’t involve the death of the little island natives, but the 35th update gives them something magical to behold. A double rainbow… all the way across the sky! The new episode, titles “Double Rainbow All The Way Across The Sky,” gives you the ability to hand draw double rainbows that the pygmies will fawn over. Instead of just using their loving eyes, the pygmies can now talk, saying things like “full on,” “what does this mean!?” and more.

Android smartphone owners should already be able to find the game in the Android Market, while those with devices running Microsoft’s latest mobile OS will get it “soon” — i.e. no specific date has been announced. If you haven’t heard of Pocket God, you should know it’s one of the most popular iPhone games to date. It has received over 30 free updates that include mini-games and continues to impress both the newbies and those that have downloaded the game when it was in the episode 1. The game is so popular that it has also spawned its own comic book, a first for any franchise born in the mobile app space.

It's pygmy time! It’s hard to believe it, but Pocket God is already on its 36th update. If you’ve somehow missed it, the now-classic app gives users an island populated with charismatic “pygmies,” along with myriad ways of torturing the poor souls. Fire ants, lightning, sharks – the pygmies have gone through a lot since Pocket God’s long-ago debut. They even have their own comic now, which has also received an update. But first, let’s look at the main app. The 36th update, named “Konkey Dong,” is the last of three primate-inspired updates.

There aren't a lot of surprises in here -- if you've been following the App Store pretty closely over the first few years of its life, odds are that you'll know about most of these titles. But it is interesting to see them ranked. On the iPhone, Doodle Jump takes the crown as the most popular paid app of all time, with Tap Tap Revenge 3, Pocket God and Angry Birds filling out the top four. In free apps, Facebook and other free utilities are on top, with Backflip Studios' Paper Toss the only game in the top few entries.

We've already looked at the good free stuff. As we mentioned with those free applications, with everything the App market has to offer, it's hard to find stuff that's worth your time. With paid Apps, not only do you want the download to be worth your time, you want it to be worth your money. Yeah, 99 cents is almost nothing, but it adds up, especially when there are a lot of junk apps out there.   Let's take a look at the stuff that gets more attention:     1) Doodle Jump – 99 cents The App description even makes sure to remind us that it's the all-time top paid iPhone App in the US App Store.

In fact, there was a time where the current trend of the App Store was either including Doodle Jump in some way, or getting Doodle Jump to include an element of your game. Pocket God [99¢], for instance, featured a mini-game similar to Doodle Jump while Doodle Jump included the pygmies as a secret playable character. According to our bros over at Pocket Gamer, Lima Sky has just inked a deal with Universal Pictures to include the main character of the upcoming movie "Hop", likely as part of their somewhat inevitable Easter-themed update. Doodle Jump has become surprisingly mainstream over the years, and it has been featured in a number of places including Lady Gaga concerts, The Jimmy Fallon show, and even on the sitcom The Big Bang Theory.

On the smaller Apple handhelds, it’s a game defined by the updates it has and still receives on a frequent basis. That tradition is continuing on in the iPad version [$4.99], as the next update is poised to add yet another mini-game set on a brand new planet to explore, Mercury, “a highly technological world where the civilization is obsessed with all things fast.” So, what’s the game? Great. Glad you asked. It’s called “Hover Jump,” and Bolt tells us it’s something like a take on Data East’s Bump and Jump. In Hover Jump, you’ll control a hover car-equipped pygmy tasked with navigating a “treacherous” road full of jumps and enemies. Jumping on enemies or over gaps eliminates threat, but the action also tasks your fuel. The not-so-subtle idea here is the push-and-pull of conservation versus action. The update should be out very soon, if Wed, 06 Apr 2011 23:18:02 GMT http://toucharcade.com/2011/04/06/pocket-god-for-ipad-getting-a-new-retro-style-mini-game/ Touch Arcade (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/148apps/~3/PvjiKM4v7UU/ On this episode of The Portable Podcast, host Carter Dotson and guest Dave Castelnuovo of Bolt Creative discuss the present and future of the Pocket God franchise, pricing in the mobile gaming industry, and how platforms like 3DS will compete against the iOS devices.

Plunderland is a side-scrolling game that lets you control a ship full of pirates as you battle enemies on the open seas and pillage unfortunate island inhabitants. There's elements of Pocket God [99¢] in how you can manipulate characters and environments, and combat is similar to artillery games where you set the trajectory of your cannon fire to take out enemy ships and sea creatures. This is all topped off with incredibly charming graphics and sound. We really liked Plunderland when we reviewed it last July, and in the months following release the game was updated with new modes, Game Center integration, universal iPad support, and many tweaks that ironed out all of the issues we originally had with the game in regards to finicky controls and camera zooming.Things have been pretty Tue, 10 May 2011 09:26:25 GMT http://toucharcade.com/2011/05/10/huge-plunderland-update/ Touch Arcade (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://toucharcade.com/2011/06/13/wwdc-2011-we-check-in-on-pocket-god/ At WWDC this year, I sat down with Dave Castelnuovo from Bolt Creative to talk about what’s upcoming in the various entries in the Pocket God series. We’ve always been fans of Pocket God [99¢] around TouchArcade, but admittedly hadn’t quite stayed up to date with the series as of late. After Dave showed me some of the recent new features added into the games, I was really surprised by just how much they’ve evolved since I’ve been on Pocket God hiatus. The biggest bit of news is that the previously iPad-only Pocket God: Journey To Uranus [99¢] is now a universal app and is currently on sale for 99¢, down from $4.99. This version of Pocket God lets you take your pygmies into space to various planets, each with their own unique features. You can also discover mini-games which are based on classic arcade games, like Bump ‘n’ Jump, Joust, Mon, 13 Jun 2011 08:00:28 GMT http://toucharcade.com/2011/06/13/wwdc-2011-we-check-in-on-pocket-god/ Touch Arcade (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://toucharcade.com/2011/06/27/massive-facebook-promo-code-giveaway-600-pm-pacific/ ...last time we gave away a massive amount of promo codes on our Facebook page it was a huge hit, but people had two main complaints: Codes were snatc...

Originally released all the way back in January of 2009, Pocket God has now seen it's 40th major content update, which basically blows away every other iOS game imaginable when it comes to updates. Looking back on it, if you flipped out a buck on the game back when it was first released, how far that dollar has gone is just incredible. Similarly, the amount of content included in Pocket God now is just nuts, to the point that I don't really even know where you'd start if you just downloaded it today. The latest update, entitled "Battle of the Gods plays off the previous update where players collected idols. These idols are now used for what amounts to almost rock paper scissors Pokemon-style battles with your pygmies. You can get a look at how this all works in Wed, 10 Aug 2011 21:00:40 GMT http://toucharcade.com/2011/08/10/pocket-god-releases-40th-update-battle-of-the-gods/ Touch Arcade (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://www.tuaw.com/2011/08/10/pocket-god-set-to-release-40th-content-update/ Bolt Creative has announced that it's planning to release its 40th content update for the popular Pocket God app, which will feature a mechanic where players can collect idols and battle them against gods, with more idols and gods in future updates to come. The update also includes a "Mafia skin pack" for in-app purchase, which will cosmetically change some of the game's graphics to be Mafia-related. But what's in the pack isn't quite as amazing as the fact that it's number 40. Nowadays, free-to-play games and in-app purchases are almost commonplace, but back when Pocket God started a few years ago, that definitely wasn't the case. Pocket God and a number of other titles have really paved the way on this model, where gamers can download a game for free or cheap, and then enjoy a steady stream of content updates from the developers, along with solid in-app purchases.

That tiny little 99c purchase of Pocket God way back in 2009 has gone a heck of a long way with updates coming in fast. It’s meant that owners of Pocket God have always had something to go back to in the game and something new to discover. Now 2 years after its initial release, Bolt Creative has announced the release of the game’s 40th update offering some astounding value. Impressive stuff for such a simple yet compelling title. The 40th update, titled Battle of the Gods, promises to be the largest content expansion to date for the game. While the previous update introduced God Idols and God Island to the game world, this new episode allows players to use up to four of the aforementioned idols in a showdown against one of 40 gods on God Island. Each God Idol promises different attacks and Thu, 11 Aug 2011 17:30:37 GMT http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/148apps/~3/9_cdX9mAKpE/ 148 Apps (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://twitter.com/AppStoreHQ/statuses/101688273654652928 ...most talked about #iPhone app in the last 24hrs was: Pocket God http://bit.ly/q1eKv3...

Bolt Creative released 41st (yes that’s forty-first) update to its super-popular Pocket God game. The new episode titled “I Sting the Body Electric” doesn’t just add new level, but also comes with iOS 5 support, including asynchronous turn-based gaming and iCloud storage. The new update introduces a new coral reef location on the ocean floor, which is infested with deadly jellyfish. Your goal, as you can imagine, is to feed your pygmies to the electrified jellyfish or make a circle out of them to trap pygmies in a fence of wet, squishy death. An “Underwater World” skin pack is also available through in-app purchase that changes the Pocket God island’s volcano into a whale, as well as change the island’s boulder into a giant puffer fish. We’ve nothing but the words of praise for Bolt Creative. That’s the way to keep your customers happy, while also Mon, 17 Oct 2011 10:49:26 GMT http://www.intomobile.com/2011/10/17/pocket-god-gets-its-41st-episode/ IntoMobile (Provided by AppStoreHQ) http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/148apps/~3/LRVN6FEYF94/ By Rob LeFebvre on December 19th, 2011 Unleashing even more death and fury on the little Pygmies in Bolt Creative's Pocket God. Pocket God continues to build on its phenomenal success with update after update, giving players a ton of content for very litte outlay. Developer Dave Castlenuevo and the gang at Bolt Creative continue to spearhead efforts to release frequent episodic updates. The last one was in October of this year. Episode 42, entitled Bone Soup, unlocks the powers of the underwater pyramid, itself released back in October with Episode 41: I Sting the Body Electric. The new pyramid powers include the elements of fire, ice, oil, and acid, and air, allowing players to unleash them upon the poor Pygmies to comedic and fatal effect. Check out the video below to see how this will play out: But wait, there’s more!

Pocket God is still going strong, blasting right through update number forty-three (43!). The newest episode, “Killing Time,” deals with the kind of stuff that turned Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Deloreans and use of the word “paradox” into national phenomena. In other words, it has to do with futzing around with time. Like time, time. Not wasting a few minutes at the bus stop, time. Players will be able to visit the new Apocalypse Island, home of a multi-roomed temple that includes a time-shifting chamber. It also houses a creepy Aztec calendar that’s counting down to 11:11am, December 21st, 2012. This is just the first of many apocalypse-themed updates, according to Bolt. Each of the temple’s many rooms features some sort of Armageddon-like power, each to be opened with future updates, but at the moment no Fri, 03 Feb 2012 22:15:25 GMT http://www.148apps.com/news/pocket-god-sees-43rd-update-predicts-armageddon/ 148 Apps (Provided by AppStoreHQ)
