    Howdy, we're hard at work getting the finishing touches on Wind Up Robots, and a trailer will be out very soon. In the meantime, we thought we'd introduce the development team to you, and show you around the shop in our latest Flurry Friday video:

    I create awesome paper airplanes that I will sell
    Here
    Definitely the second one, in my mind, is the best by far. For me, an icon has to look nice, stand out, and hopefully represent the game. From what I can tell, icon 2 does all 3, and looks awesome (especially when you look at it close to the actual size of an icon on your screen).

    Our thoughts too. The green really does stand out. I remember Rovio saying they picked theirs mainly because there were very few red icons on the iTunes store. Thanks.


    Great feedback. Thanks. The final will have a windup key and more shine and polish. Thanks!

    Thanks for voting everyone! Always great to have help on decisions like this :) We'll try and post the final icon art sometime in the next day or two.

    The game is going to be coming soon, weeks not months, and we'll have a release date to share shortly.

    New holiday costume ideas, app submission and more...

    Updates: We submit Wind Up Robots to Apple tomorrow!

    Since the release is going to be so close to Christmas, we thought we'd do a holiday outfit for our store. Have an opinion which one we choose? Have a totally different costume idea? Don't be shy. I've suggested a Jacob Marley with chains.
    See first page for our holiday outfit mockups: http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=111365

    We will have a full poll up soon but feel free to leave a comment in the meantime.

    We will keep you posted on release announcements as well.
