Hi Guys,

I am an indie developer who created the game Melon Truck. I did everything from coding to graphics to sound myself. I recently released a new version of Melon Truck (1.0.1) that added support for iPad and iPod Touch. And Already submitted a (1.0.2) change that makes the game a bit less frustrating for the novice users. So far this game got great reviews from CrazyMikesApps.com, toffiappl.com and product-reviews.net. Here are the links:

Here are the game details:
Melon Truck is a challenging yet entertaining iPhone/iPad game that will keep the entire family busy whether the gamer is 7 or 70 years old. With medium to easy learning curve, and easy to use controls, Melon Truck guarantees to entertain for hours.

Melon Truck Game Play consists of launching melons from a melon truck to baskets that vary in points. Each level must be completed with a minimum score of 1600 in order to proceed to the next locked level. However, Melon Truck offers 6 bonus levels that require gamers to pass all levels with a score of 3000 or better. While game play is designed to challenge the users, Melon Truck provides a fun, soothing game tone to entertain everyone.

Featured in "New and Noteworthy" section of iTunes Application Store, Melon Truck is now available for purchase.

Doesn't appear to be an iPad app. Looks like an iPhone app that will run on the iPad. Any plans for a full-size iPad version?
 
UPDATE: Apple acted really quickly and released 1.0.2 which makes the game a little easier for some ppl who arent used to this kind of game.


Here are some promo codes for v1.0.2: (Please let your fellow forum members know if you used a code)

Yes it's not specifically for iPad, but I actually made the graphics HD and they look really good in iPad when you do 2x. You just have to click 2x once, and the rest of the times it will open 2x automatically.

Anyways I have some game play videos on youtube that you can check out at http://melontruck.com .But everyone with an iPad tells me its really fun on iPad. Also Game Screen on ipad covers 95% of the screen which mean you still get to see your battery info and time info :)

here is a pic of what im talking about:
