Hackers of 2073 Sale! Contest! Excitement!

Hey All!To expand our reach, N.R. and I are developing a mobile version of the mini-games in "Hackers of 2073". The game (or games) is tentatively titled "Passwords of 2073". Each game will be a port (sometimes with a small twist) on the current games inside "Hackers".
The initial plan is to develop for the Android operating system. It's a tough decision because the world of mobile devices is a virtual Tower of Babel aftermath of 1000 languages in which each cell phone does their own thing or needs its own interface.
In celebration of the new development, we're offering $5 off the price of "Hackers of 2073"! Simply go to our store and select your version, Window or Mac. Use the coupon code CELL-DEV.
This coupon expires a week from Sunday (20 September 2009), so best to hurry!
Finally, N.R. and I are offering a free copy of "Hackers of 2073" to the first 10 people to play the demo and submit a short review of the game. Send submissions to query@machinecodegames.com. Best of luck!

I have several reasons to not use iTGB. Cost and market saturation are two of them.
But since a lot of the puzzle-building logic is in C++, I have to port a lot of code anyway. I'm not too keen on Objective-C, and I already know how to code in Java.
In addition, the GUIs are going to have to be re-worked, so I don't have much advantage in starting with iTGB.
Plus, I don't mind supporting the concept of Android, at least for now.
