    Me too, me too.

    It was resubmitted a few days ago. The feedback you get from Apple is exactly zero on what happens next. I'll obviously post something here and via twitter (@GLWG) when the big day cometh.

    In the meantime I can only urge patience. Easy to say though, it's killing me! :eek:

    Yep, it's gone.

    It did surprise me how many people this bothered tbh, but I'm happy to please. I do agree it wasn't a requirement for a game like this, whereas it might've been if we were doing a realistic fps or something.

    Starting to feel like I am reading a forum dedicated to the production of Nintendo DS games....

    Could have just changed to color green from red instead of removing it completely. Please consider re-adding it or something. It was one of the nicer qualities of the game.

    It was definitely the family friendly angle that swayed the argument for me.

    I still don't get it personally but it's an old argument about blood in war games, and the reason it's old is that both sides are right!

    Personally I find it rather hilarious though, the reasoning that "it's okay to show kids people killing each other...but there can't be any blood".

    That said, I couldn't really care less about if there's blood or not in this game and I'm mightily looking forward to getting this for my iPad. Looks absolutely lovely. :)

    Been looking forward to this.

    No blood makes this an insta buy for me.

    I am sooo tired of seeing my screen get filled with blood because it apparantly is cool (?).

    If you ever decide to put it back in, please let there be an on/off switch of sorts. :)

    Just make an on/off switch with the default being off. Simple.

    Yeah, that's the one.

    Lets try to keep off that crusty old ground though please. If we were discussing a game where the rest of it was realistic, it'd be more on message and the game would still have blood in it - far more realistic than what we took out of this one. :)

    Nope, I think it's been resubmitted to Apple, so we're really just waiting on them.

    It's as frustrating for the devs as it is for us, so I'm sure we'll all be told the moment it becomes available :)

    I didn't even realize it had been re-submitted. Disappointing.

    But it happens, I guess. From what I understand, there's a pretty long list of do's/don't's that can cause the App Store drones to flag a new game.

    It's ok- I'd think it will be released at 8pm Wednesday pacific time here in Canada- that's usually how it goes I think. I have my fingers crossed.
