Okay, some of you may remember this small cool game iAtoms for the iPhone. Well, after almost two years of no updates (hey, at least we tried it a few times), the time has come for the biggest update one app has ever seen. If you are familiar with iAtoms, you can skip this now: iAtoms is all about placing atoms on a 8x8 grid. Every player (up to four) can place one atom of his/her color into a free field or a field with the players color. When the atom count in one field reaches the number of surrounding fields (2 fields for the corners, 3 for the sides and 4 for the rest), the atoms in the field spread into the surrounding fields and the color changes to the color of the reacting field. The goal is simple: Turn every atom into one of yours. (Okay, that was probably the most confusing description ever... sorry about that, english isn't my native language. But the game is really easy although its hard to master). Here is the old thread: http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=22745 And here is a youtube video of the old version: video So, about the update: To be honest, iAtoms sucks. It was okay at the time when we released it, but now it simply sucks. There is no automatic port forwarding for multiplayer matches, one has to enter the IP of the server to join it, there are no achievemts, no leaderboards, no nothing. Oh and for those of you who care: All code was in one, big class. Thats horrible and we feel horrible for that. The update makes everything better, a server browser, automatic port forwarding (via UPnP and NAT-PMP), iPad support, iPhone 4 retina support, new game modes, GameCenter and OpenFeint support, etc. etc. Its completely rewritten from scratch and although its in a very early stage, it already makes more fun than the first version. So why do I write all that? Because we need testers! So if you want to test the new iAtoms, click here and follow the instructions. Beta testers will receive a promo code for the App once its in the App Store (or you just download it now while its free and get the update anyway) Here are a few screenshots from the new version, but please note that the UI will be subject to change!
