I hope you’re ready.

There is one more thing to this  update, that is our logo. Though we love the logo of the boy and the Nerf Gun. Our creative director always thought that that image did not fit the game. Then came the review from Germany. I used Google translator to translate it so it reads a bit funny. But here it is proof positive that our creative director was right and my sentimental attachment to the original logo was clouding my judgment.

More than a game – more than five stars!…Finally, a few critical questions or requests:…The startup screen Ayumusoft (human figure with a gun) pointed at more games and it does not fit quite hExistentialism. This disturbs the aesthetic sense, which is such an ambitious game not to be.

Here is our new logo for hExistentialism. We will save the old logo for a shooter of some sort.

I am also happy to announce a temporary price drop in the full version to $.99. You read it right, $.99 TEMPORARILY. “How long?” You ask, well we will raise the price back up when version 1.31 gets released by Apple, and Apple does not like to tell us how long that will take. I give it at most a week. So buy it now before it goes back up to the original price of $2.99. We are doing this because the free version and version 1.3 came out this week and we would like to see as many people make the switch to the full version as possible. Remember all updates to hExistentialism will be free to those that already own the full version.

Do you really want the full version of hExistentialism but you just went nuts on Jack in the Boxes $.99 menu and all your dollars are gone. Well have we got some news for you if you act fast. Twitter users can go to can visit our profile (http://twitter.com/hExistentialism) there will be a tweet about the free version. The first 20 people to retweet that tweet get a free FULL version of our game.

These are the words from another review that popped up today on Gear Diary. Whoo Hoo!!!

If you read deeper you will find this quote in the review. Talking about the tutorial.

“This is where the game should have started.  With easy, one or two variable combinations, giving you a chance to get used to the gamplay and ease into things.”

I would like to respond to this comment with an announcement. We are currently working on and about to release a free version and a update to hExistentialism. The Update will include easy mode with only 3 attributes at a time.

More on when these releases will go live when we submit to Apple once again.

This goes out every small developer out there. Get an artist. They Rock.

We now play the iTunes Connect refresh game as described by the good folks at Magic Jungle Software. “…just before it appears in the App Store. As long as the developer stays awake 24 hours a day, they can rush in to iTunes Connect on receipt of this email, and change the availability date to today…”

Until then please check out our hExistentialism page for more info  and screen shots of the game.
