@Johnny, Looks excellent, can't wait :) How much did you pay for the trailer if you don't mind me asking?
Also, is there any significance in the date?
Good luck!

@Scott - I was quoted as much as 600 for a trailer, so I just did it myself. I did pay for the music though.

I tried to pick a release date on a week with no releases from the big guys and also to give me enough time from the day it gets approved to do some marketing.

@Scott - I've always loved movies and video editing. It's just a very time consuming hobby but then so is game development :).

Very awesome! Can't wait for June 5th.
I agree with Scott. Very nicely done trailer.
I've always enjoyed video production too. However, the last time I did anything significant was with MediaStudio Pro 6.5...
Great job!

@Noby - I used Media Studio a long time and thought it was great. Ulead products are generally very good.

BTW, I hope to use your drop shadow in future apps...thanks for that.

@Johnny, what can I say, awesome work :) Seriously though, you need a geriatric mode ;-) I'm stuck on the knife/hand puzzle - I swear I can not go any quicker on my iPad :D

How have you got the physics working in the first challenge - is that Torque physics?

@Scott - You got the game! Also thanks for the facebook like.

Yes! That is torque physics in the first challenge. I was able to do simple bouncing physics with torque physics! It's actually pretty simple to do you just need to adjust some of the physics settings to get a bouncing effect. Collision is not 100% accurate but in Quick Enough, it was good enough. It's the only challenge that uses physics and it's one of my favorite challenges. Physics add alot to gameplay, that's why we need good physics support in torque!

I had a couple of friends get stuck on the knife puzzle one too but eventually passed it. I do agree some of the challenges are tough... I'm going to monitor feedback closely these next few days and see if I need to adjust difficulty levels.

Picking it up. By the way, what's the "Are You Quick Enough Training" app I see on your catalog?

@Luis - Oh! So that's the lite version. What I did with that one is put a couple of challenges from the first game and the second game so people can sample it out.

I also put ads in there. Its a great app to test out ads. I can go crazy with it since it's a free version. It can be very profitable too, at one point I was making 100-200 a day off ads just on that app.
