    That's good. I've only completed about 6 of the master missions. Just got the game a couple days ago in this thread. This is quickly becoming my favorite genre.

    Well the competition is getting fierce...160k is needed just to get in the top 10....hopefully I can hold on! I'm depending on this to get the ipad :) if I win at least 250....I'm getting it!!

    Even if I lose...it was really worth the $1 I spent for it...thanks for a superb game Matt!

    Btw do you plan to make a HD version?(if you haven't already) I think more room could make for some nice, big puzzles :)

    Thanks again!

    Yep... we are closing in and the scores are amazing! Don't forget that you have a chance to win something if you just post a score to OpenFeint and have your email tied to your OpenFeint account.

    Doodle Bomb HD has been tossed around and we are currently prototyping a sci-fi FPS to see if it sticks or not. We are basically in the process of roadmapping our games for the rest of the year... so if you have any suggestions for Doodle Bomb directions, let us know :).

    P.S. New icon for the game doesn't count as a "feature" or "direction", there will be something new for 1.6 :)

    Yeah, the top 5 scores are really cutting it close. There have been a couple of crafty solutions by some users that I've had to replicate to keep my spot. I can't wait for Sunday to roll around.

    I was holding #2 then #3 for the awhile, didn't really expect to hold on to it until I figured out the best solution for Master Mission #23...which I still haven't, then darn if someone didn't blow Master Mission #13 all to hell, I have tried seven ways from Sunday to figure this one out. Then they go and say you have to be very lucky....okay, not sure what time the contest is/was over but, some kind of hint of 13 would be welcome. I managed to figure out everything else mostly up to that point. All the ideas I have don't seem to pan out. I'm assuming this was done with only 1 bomb? Does it involve balance and rolling? altho I don't see how that will work. I also basically haven't be able to keep up the last two days, to much easter stuff going on, bad wireless and no time to play. OH well forward.


    okay maybe I see a solution but boy what I see is by far more luck than skill, just a little hint, does it take 2,3 or 4 bombs? 2 would be the toughest solution, 3 makes the solution possibly a little more stable, but 4 means there is dual timing considerations (besides the fuse that is). Its April 5th, come on you can give a guy a little hint.

    Oh, no. I've managed to do every level completely by myself. I'll explain a little more in depth.

    I check all 65 level scores every so often, to see if someone has come up with a better way of completing a level. I then guesstimate how many bombs that person used to complete it, based on their new score. Then I figure it out for myself, and get near their score, or a little better.

    So basically, I saw the creative ways people came up with for a couple levels by trying to match their score and beating it for myself- seeing their solutions as I beat the level.

    Good luck everyone! Its been great to have some tough competitors challenging me all the way.

    Yeah, it sounds like you've got the main idea down. At first I thought it was 2, but that was going to be insanely precise. So I tried the 4 bomb solution, and it turns out that's what the 6100's folks did.

    Winners have been confirmed! I will be sending out emails within the hour to the cash prize winners and will follow up with the GC winners over the next couple days.

    For privacy purposes I will wait to announce the winners until I receive email confirmation that they are ok with us publishing their OF username.

    Thanks again to everyone who participated!

    Matt
