Be Excellent To Each Other

Yeah, I love that in combination with the "All new tiles are coins" ability. And if you can combo it with one of the "collect all X" skills it's even better, because you get to double-dip. Activate "All new tiles are coins", then collect all X and they're replaced by coins which you can convert to swords, kill whatever you have to then those coins are replaced by EVEN MORE COINS ZOMG!!!11!!eleven!

I like to get ahead of the curve in terms of abilities, so my favourite skills are stuff like Enchant (especially if you can use Mana Potions to alleviate its massive cooldown), Collect All Potions As XP and to a lesser extent All New Tiles Are Coins.

Am I missing something, or does GameCentre have no way of mass-importing friends lists from your contacts / Twitter / anything? How fucking stupid is that?

Gamecenter is just stupid in general. It's improved since they initially implemented it and it sucked massive balls, but not by a huge amount.

Anyone sick of Zombies game? If YES don't download. If NO then this is a survival zombie game with usual on-screen joystick controls.

This is a Dr Seuss Cat in the Hat game so one for the kids - big or small . It's a stacking affair, in that you have to collect the falling objects.

I've had three scores of around 25k on Dungeon Raid in recent days. I have no idea how on earth someone got 600k. Is there some way to cheat?

I've still not played this game, Sword & Poker is taking up all my time on the iPod along with Disc Drivin (Which has a new track update) & Words

Hundreds of C64 game tunes for free? Turn your iPhone into a SID player you say?

Just listening to The Last V8. They're all on here.

So, I think I'm part of the way through my final ever game of Dungeon Raid.

Why final ever?

Well, I'm currently on 207664 points, and show no sign of dying any time soon. In fact, I'm not sure I could die even if I tried to, given how much blunting and spikes I have on my armour. I'll have to contrive a way to do so eventually, so I can post my score on Gamecenter.

Speaking of which, that puts me at position #6 on the all-time Gamecenter leaderboard. Unless the difficulty ramps up significantly, I see no reason why I can't take the #1 spot, though it may take me a couple of weeks!

My current stats are:
Base Damage - 1746
Armour - 545
Weapon Damage - 225
HP - 7395

...and my other stats are so jacked that any time anything dares to take 5 armour off me it gets back on v quickly indeed.

In other news, I managed to get ~4,000. Your move, Curio.

AR Invaders is free on the AppStore. It's one of those Augmented Reality type games. Download it & try it out

I asked around for some fun picture apps, and Patience Recommended Tiny Planets to me. It's a free app, and makes tiny little 'worlds' out of any landscape pictures, but also work in distorting other pictures. Like this picture of a wolf I took today:

Do bare in mind that I used a very small resolution photo taken in low light to begin with - better starting points will give a much better result than those two pictures (which started out as the same picture, the first using the 'tiny planet' setting and the next the 'tin tube'.

Anyway, it's fun if you are bored, or stuck in bed. Or bored and stuck in bed.

Wasn't sure if I should post it here, or if this thread is only for srs bsnss about hardware upgrades and battery life, etc.

But hey, wolf pictures!

Actually, I do wonder if we should have an "iOS software" thread that covers all the platforms. Sometimes I don't know whether to write about a given app in here or the iPad thread.

Seconded

I was going to ask how you did those Mimi, very nice!

Edit: bah, always crashes for me

You dirty scoundrels aren't the only ones with apps, y'know. How about a general app thread for all OS'sessses's?

Mimi—get yourself QuadCamera—absolutely wonderful multishot that works well with low-res cameras (like the old iPhone 3G and the iPod touch).

EDIT: My Driving in Iceland set, all from QuadCamera.

Can open, Dr G approaching rapidly with a big wormy spoon.

Hebrew add "Worm Wrangler" to your cc, doc

Just sayin', like....erm.

Edit: Hebrew?! Wtf, phone! That's hehehe, actually.

I think we should just have one thread for everything.

*Remembers the time he tried to type “Manchester" and had it corrected to “Man homosexual”.*

World of Goo is out an 59p for the next ~23 hours.

My still-in-play game of Dungeon Raid would now place me at #2 of all players on Gamecenter.

There's a patch out, Curio - maybe you should avoid that until your game is done.

Cheers, will do.

Also, why the heck are you up at this ungodly hour?

I assume your still playing as a changeling mage , what powerups / perks have you got ?

Halfling whatever the default class is.

Collect all potions as HP (which I never use)
Collect all potions as XP
Collect all coins
Turn all coins to skulls

The trick is to use the halfling perk that any time you match 15+ skulls you gain an armour point, and do it a lot. Between that, the killing lots of monsters and grabbing potions as XP, you can stay ahead of the curve indefinitely. I've not lost HP from enemy attacks in days...

@Curio I am riddled with cold and was going through some coughing-induced insomnia.

We should have an app thread, or an OSX/iOS thread, or an iOS thread, or and OSX thread, or an Apple thread, or something.

And then shove them in an Apple sub-forum to keep it all out of the way.

Can the Android users go to another forum entirely then?

So Talk About Inferior Smartphone Platforms.

I've long been in favour of subforums, as it happens

The Apple sub-forum should only be accessible through Itunes.

Where's the Sports sub-forum?

I posted this in another forum when someone asked about how good Android was in comparison to iOS

"version 2.1.3.5.6.43.a.z is great on handsets made in april 2010 in the korean factory, but if you bought one from japan on HTC and have pwned Samsung S 2.55.6.2.888.z.x.zz.x onto it, then you need to make sure you get the GPS drivers from 2.4.3.55.55.5 and compile them into a crack and install via a friends HTC which runs 1.1.2.54.2.4.s. and has mutlitouch maps installed."

It was taken seriously by an Android user and I was told off for flashing my phone and expecting it to work properly!
Tells you everything you need to know about the current Android situation

Ooh, someone's bitchy this morning.

Actually, I'm just annoyed you came up with a joke about that before I did.

Gah! I bought that yesterday at full price. Cunts

Still, it was only a few quid.

So Talk About Brilliant Mobile Entertainment Including New Technological High End Futuristic App Centre Excitement.

STAISP?

I don't get it.

Android ROOLZ!

I *hate* evangelism. I chose an Android because it's what I wanted. Every time someone tries to justify their purchase by denigrating something else, I could spit.

You bashed my phone last time we met

That's because it's *yours*. Also, shut up.

Needs more pervy-sounding engrish. Can we work "Super Happy Funtime Excite" into it?

mmm, no production signs of iphone 5 according to dutch iphone site iphoneclub..... not good.. thinking of buying a 4 now..

There were no production signs of the iPad 2 either, until about a week before they announced it... IIRC

Now that I have an ipod touch and an android phone, I can safely say that the best mobile OS is having both an android and an ios device on you at all times.

Not without somewhat breaking the acronym.

It's called Bits and Bobs. I wonder what percentage of the forum posts I've never read out of principle currently stands at. I think I stopped reading it after BnB7.

It's why I put most of my personal shit in there, so it gets lost in the ether after I've said it.
