Who was actually playing that game?! I can't believe it took them sooooo long to realise to go over the top.

I'd rather enjoy these games though, I love the practical problem solving aspect.
Engineering schools will be using this to help thier students. MIT, Cal Tech, UC Berkley....COUGH COUGH!
I agree, they can be enjoyable if done well. But basically, these games are all the same. There are a few exceptions which bring something new but this game here looks plain average, or even worse: It looks very slow and boring.
My point is: It's just getting old.
...pretty sure this was posted in the iOS blog and not the front page.
With as big as a hit the other titles from Rovio were I think it's safe to assume that a good amount of people would be interested in this story.
Nope. How can real life become outdated? Every game is working on being more realistic, and while these games aren't aiming for realistic graphics, the realistic movement (physics-based) is the direction that all gaming is moving.
jW
Was hoping it would be. Haven't got any iP5 games that use the full screen yet.
Infinity Blade II, Minecraft, Asphalt 7, Horn, Jetpack Joyride, Blast-A-Way, Sky Gamblers and Temple Run are all updated I believe
Rovio/Bad piggies account on twitter replied to my tweet and stated that they are working hard on iphone 5 resolution (even angry birds) as they didn't have enough time to include such a new ''feature''
While I applaud their work, I find it silly how
1) they weren't included int he preview some big companies had with a prerelease iphone 5
2) shows their apps have to be rebuilt with new game textures (backgrounds and whatnot) to fit the screen and not simply a resize as other apps have done.

This is a fun game, but I can't believe they pushed it through without support for the iPhone 5 screen. Hopefully there will be an update soon.
I've got no complaints. There are plenty of levels in each game. Seasons, esp. Very good value compared to some.
Ok, one. The Space cost/level addition is different on iOS and Android, in bizarre fashion. Seems silly.
Probably because most devs are using OpenGL ES2.0, GLKit (which requires OGLES2), or some other new framework that isn't supported on the older devices.
It's actually rather well done, they did a great job of the focus on the solution not the gimmick
