  9. Timo And kimo how long do you guys think it will take for it to be released

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  11. This is from the last post about psp and ds ,Psp only has on analog
    on the ds you can aim with your stylus and move with the pad.

    Also this update looks awsome

    Minigore you guys shouldve added a forum to oyur site,or at least add a page for each of your games. that way we don`t have to keep switching from posts and we all have to have accs which can be banned.

    I don`t feel like making an acc on here so don`t tell me to just name myself

  12. in an earlier post the beta tester were saying there was something that changed gameplay alot is this listed here? or is it kind of like a suprise or something this goes to a beta tester or timo and kimmo

    ReplyDelete
  13. theres a few things there that change the gameplay a lot more than you would expect it to

  14. Who is Sensei Evan?

    Nice work Mountain Sheep, can't wait.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I'm assuming Sensei Evan is just Evan Hsu,

    Wow this looks super badass! Can't wait for this and then for co-op!
    Great you guys reskinned the map :) finally able to mix it up a little can't wait for the new maps, the update probably won't take 2 weeks probably 3-4 because of the x-mas rush of new apps and updates, but it'll most-likely be out before x-mas:D unless we have problems again :/

    Oh and merry turkey-day haha

    Guerilla Bobs going to be sweet! Oh and PG's update got submitted too :D

    anyway good job mountain sheep! Your hard works really paying off, I wouldn't be surprised if it came back into the top 50 after this update or after co-op :D

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  18. What happened to the zombie idea?
    Ep 2 was supposed to have them but they weren't in there...

    ReplyDelete
  19. all in good time Yerttrey...

    ReplyDelete
  20. zombies were never planned for ep2, its always been ep5 ;)
    plans may change, tho ep5 is whats most likely

    ReplyDelete
  21. awesome! can not wait! hopefully it will be approved quickly

    ReplyDelete
  22. how come that liz isnt a player?

    ReplyDelete
  23. Anon (above me), Lizzy will be in the next update with co-op.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  26. This update looks amazing!!!! Hopefully a quick approval. Btw the night cycle was my idea lol posted it on toucharcade prolly not where you guys got the idea but im gunna pull a windows7 and say it is! Cant wait

    ReplyDelete
  27. Sensi Evan is a totally differnt character from Evan Hsu. He is also much harder to unlock. Episode 3 is very, Very fun and hopefully it gets approved soon. Sign up on playhavn and become a fan if you havn't already :D

    ReplyDelete
  28. On the openfeint achievements it says to get Evan you need 14000 points, for enviro- bear you need 32000 points and for sensei Evan you need 1000000 points. Is that in one sitting or in total?

    ReplyDelete
  29. its changed to kills now, not points because people would of abused the points system but kills they cant do that

    ReplyDelete
  30. That's sweet Cant wait:) Oh I got 24000 :) They never said what episode the zombies are going to be in, they just mentioned it, so well have to wait and find out :) Hope it gets approved soon, good job mountain sheep:)

  31. I'm pretty sure zombies are planned for Ep. 4

    ReplyDelete
  32. nah co-op is ep4, zombies will be ep5 if anything

    ReplyDelete
  33. Im pretty sure its not, they havnt announced anything, and since co-op is so huge they probably wont have it in there

    ReplyDelete
  34. @playn- what's the difference between points and kills? How would people have abused the points system but not the kills?

    ReplyDelete
  35. White lies, just a little white lie. I do them to get close to you, and i will tell another million, white lies.

    ReplyDelete
  36. You get 2 points for each Kill. So 100 kills = 200 points

    Kill as in 1 mini furry

    ReplyDelete
  37. So we have to kill 1000000 minifurries in one sitting just to unlock sensei Evan?

    ReplyDelete
  38. I hate to sound like a Pansy but that's really hard!!!
    My max score is 15000...
    How the hell do they expect me to beat 100000 furries?

    ReplyDelete
  39. It's total not one sitting

    ReplyDelete
  40. Everyone, the kills are cumulative. And Playn, zombies are planned for episode 4. Fact.

    ReplyDelete
  41. @Griffin, it's worth the wait :)

    ReplyDelete
  42. How do you know zombies are ep 4 fo sho?
    (lol)

    ReplyDelete
  43. @Yerttrey, I have my sources...

    ReplyDelete
  44. how will we know how many kills we have to unlock the characters?????

    ReplyDelete
  45. Mr. Crazy like Mr. Hudson

    ReplyDelete
  46. @td12noon look at open fient in the acheivements it has the achievements for episode 3 there, it shows it even tho it hasn't come out

    ReplyDelete
  47. @anon

    no that is not fact. if it were fact it would be up the top of the page where it sais "planned for episode 4"
    we're getting co-op, more characters, possibly new types of game modes for ep4 already. zombies just doesnt fit into that episode.

    ReplyDelete
  48. @playn

    Yes, it is fact. I can't tell you how I know, and if you don't want to believe me then don't, but I know that Zombies are planned for Episode 4.

    ReplyDelete
  49. @ Anon who claims to know

    Playn has a point, if you are unable to produce a proper source, yet keep the source unknown, we assume that there is no source, and that you are only claiming it. Thats the way it works, if i tell you that minigore is being dropped and mountain sheep isnt doing anything anymore from a source that i cant tell you, how are you supposed to believe me?

    Dont be offended, im just saying

    ReplyDelete
  50. @Micer

    I understand, but if I told you, it would go against my NDA with Mountain Sheep ;)

    ReplyDelete
  51. Ah i see, thnx for clearing that up

    For anyone wondering, he has this relationship with mountainsheep, hence its like a treaty he cant break, and he breaks it by telling us.

    ReplyDelete
  52. isn it like broken now that youve told us its definately in the fourth episode

    ReplyDelete
  53. This comment has been removed by the author.

  54. So if i have a first generation iPod touch, will co-op be supported on it if i have a strong Wi-Fi connection? will i need friends on openfient or can i just join a game?

    by the way, gore needs more lame one liners. the lamer, the better.

    ReplyDelete
  55. Ok, I think I have a good idea and please people... Constructive Criticism. When I was playing minigore while watching my friend playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2. He got an emergency airdrop. I thought wow what if in minigore something like that would happened.


    So after some pondering I thought of a Fair way to use this. I was thinking every furry you kill it adds to your kill score along with your other score if you kill a certain amount idk maybe something like every 500 furries (1000+ points) you would have had something dropped on the map by santa it would be a different looking box. It first would have a minigun or some other sweet weapon like flamethrower. Next killstreak would be at every 1000 kills (2000+ points) it would be something that would distract furries to get away from you. Next would be at every 4000 kills (8000+ points) you would have santa or some other character use a vehicle or special move relating to themselves or game to kill all the furries on the screen.

    NOTE!!!!: WHENEVER YOU GET HIT YOU LOSE YOUR KILL COMBO and it starts back at zero.

    PS: when I say every something amount of points you only get it once till you get hit

    ReplyDelete
  56. AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

    ReplyDelete
  57. ok i do belive back in the ep 2 posts te devs mentioned Zombies for ep 4 or 5 and zombies are twice as fun when u gota friend with you and an envirobear tp hug

    ReplyDelete
  58. @Cooper, I am also a beta tester, but I have a little more information than the other beta testers... (I think that you and playn have access to most of the information that I have, but not all of it, the extra information is why I think that zombies are planned for Ep. 4)

    ReplyDelete
  59. ^also I forgot to mention I have tried co-op too it's pretty amazing....

    ReplyDelete
  60. I wish we could prove he was an actual beta tester. I mean any one on the Internet could start bsing with random facts that might not be true I mean I could say" I'm close to the dev and he tells me more than ever one else chuck Norris is planned for episode 7 but they only told me it's pretty awesome"

    ReplyDelete
  61. We'll let you know about the zombies in the not-so-distant future. We are working on them, but haven't made the final decision about which Episode they'll go.

    @Anon: You don't plan for Chuck Norris, he decides what course of action you will take.

    @Other Anon: I'll just say we are not much into NDAs at Mountain Sheep and as such, don't require that you sign one. ;)

    @Cheesz: Combos / kill streaks. I like that. I think it could be used to boost the abilities of the player a little in addition to (or instead of) rewarding them at specific intervals with airdrops.

    @Brian: Co-op will work over wi-fi on 1G Touch in your local area network. OpenFeint friends are not required.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Wow I can't believe you guys actually read this...

    I was the anon who was BSing saying that I've done co-op that was a lie I made to prove a point...anyone can say anything on here as an anon so don't believe them and kimmo just helped me prove it!

    3 or 4 different people said "I KNOW" when zombies will come out when kimmo just said himself he had no idea

    also timo/kimmo I apologize I was out of line to say you guys don't read anything after the first 5 comments...my bad :)

    :P I win

    ReplyDelete
  63. WHAT so co-op is only local not online, that changes everything, i was getting so exciting for online, most people have no one to play with locally,....

    uhhhhhhhhh, im frusterated, but still love minigore and cant wait for zombies.

    ReplyDelete
  64. he said for 1st gen ipods maybe 2and 3g are better, btw i know apple screwed 1st gens over but u gotta upgrade sometime

    ReplyDelete
  65. haha I saw past yerttrey's lies first.... hooray I win

    ReplyDelete
  66. HEY GUYS, IM 150% POSITIVE ZOMBIES ARE GOING TO BE IN EPISODE 4 DONT QUESTION HOW I KNOW BUT TRUST ME I KNOW, OH BY THE WAY IGNORE KIMMOS COMMENT I MEAN WHAT DOES HE KNOW, I MEAN HE JUST WRITES THE GAME WRIGHT!? HOW COULD HE POSSIBLY KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS GAME!? SO ANYWAY JUST WAIT ITLL BE IN EPISODE 4 I HAVE SO MANY SOURCES ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY BECAUSE YOU KNOW IMA BETA TESTER AND I PRACTICALLY CAME UP WITH THE WHOLE IDEA FOR THIS GAME, YOU KNOW, OH SOOOO YEAH THE OTHER DAY I TALKED TO OBAMA AND HE SAID HE LOVED ME AND IM AWESOME AND ALL THAT STUFF AND HES GOING TO APPOINT ME TO THE HEAD OF THE MINIGORE DEPARTMENT AND THEN I CAN GIVE YOU GUYS EVEN MORE INSIDE DETAILS, EVEN WHEN THE CREATORS OF THE GAME CANT!

  68. @Douchebag aka
    "HEY GUYS I'M 150% POSITIVE ZOMBIES ARE GOING TO......" also @Yerttrey

    http://www.toucharcade.com/2009/11/30/minigore-christmas-episode-to-add-new-characters-and-grenades/

    Look at the last picture, and the text that accompanies it. The post was made AFTER Kimmo posted, so it's possible that MS decided about which episode the zombies would be in, and sent off a preview to TouchArcade.

    I don't know but evidence is pointing towards ZOMBIES!

    P.S.
    The reason I'm not linking a name to my posts is because:
    a)I don't want to get my ass kicked off the beta
    b)I don't want to have to delete my TouchArcade account or email due to excessive FLAME!

    ReplyDelete
  69. @ Kimmo
    -Will the Dash thing from the poll a while back be available in a future update , i prefer it over a grenade

    ReplyDelete
  70. @anon with the conspiracy link

    the picture is of the zombie level (clearly, doesnt take a genius to figure that out) but the writing above sais the picture is a hint towards a new guest star aka lizzy :) thats how i see it anyway

    ReplyDelete
  71. @Playn,

    Does that look like Lizzy's hat to you?

    ReplyDelete
  72. @anon
    yeah i know i couldnt think of anyone else :p
    but people have figured it out in the beta group, wont say who it is tho just because ill let you guys have fun with it :)

    ReplyDelete
  73. Question for guys that are in beta. What do I need to do to be in beta? Do I need to send my leaderboard name and place, or what, cause the thread named "Testers" is kinda old?

    ReplyDelete
  74. well the time to get into the beta was closed ages ago, they opened up 99spots and all the spots have been filled
    it couldnt hurt to PM timo, kimo, jouni or santa tho on TA

    ReplyDelete
  75. @ Anon who asked about Dash

    I believe dash is indirectly in the game already, if you get hit the first time, where your character runs, you kill any furry in your way just by touch. This however is only for the first hit

    *hint* to devs

    Could it be made in the next update to allow the second hit to have the same effect? Thus both hits produce a dash mode which kills furries

    ReplyDelete
  76. @Micer: If you wanted the second hit to have the same effect, you are going to be pleasantly surprised by Episode 3. :)

    ReplyDelete
  77. loving the video of the new characters on youtube!!!!! cant wait!!!

    ReplyDelete
  78. I made a song for timmo and kimmo it goes
    timmo KIMMO timmo timmo KIMMO kimmo TIMMO timmo miniGORE miniGORE MINIGORE

    ReplyDelete
  79. i read that the next EP has DLC does that mean you guys are charging extra for the other map?

    ReplyDelete
  80. on Toucharcade.com there's a lot about Minigore just posted today and a teaser picture for episode 4 of a grave yard with zombies coming out of the graves. so to put the zombie argument to rest, the zombies are coming in episode 4 (I assume)

    ReplyDelete
  81. ^^lol this is why I regret asking the zombie question^^^

    ReplyDelete
  82. Okay! I just checked the TA forums page about the EP.3 teaser, and I'm really concerned about the whole Downloadable Content deal. I want a CLEAR, TRUE, STRAIGHT TO THE POINT answer! TA is in total chaos about that issue, and its 50/50 on the forum! KIMMO and TIMO, can ya'll PLEASE put this issue to rest and tell us all if the Downloadable Content is free or not! That'd be great!

    ReplyDelete
  83. Ah thats nice. Would that 'hit-to-dash' effect then become the new Dash skill then?

    ReplyDelete
  84. @Cbizzle2590

    It's not difficult to work out. The DLC costs muneys.

    ReplyDelete
  85. If im not wrong based on some rule by apple dlc must be paid, if its free, its called an update

    2 different things
    update and dlc

    ReplyDelete
  86. i already answered this on TA
    DLC costs money, but its for 2 characters only. when(if) you buy these characters you also get to play on a snow map re-skin when using them
    case closed

    ReplyDelete
  87. Sweet! It all makes sense now. Thanks guys for putting that s*** to rest, lol! I could understand why it's costs $, gotta make some extra cash somehow.

    ReplyDelete
  88. Would be happy to pay a small amount for extras considering all the Time and effort mountain sheep put into/will put into the game, updates and future updates.

    Minigore = Best 59p game on app store

    Minigore + future updates = BEST GAME EVER

    ReplyDelete
  89. Wait, is this game the secret project Mountain Sheep was working on? I only ask because there's a reference to Minigore in the picture.

  90. @ Anon

    Technically all i think i know is that Timo is doing artwork for it and thats all

    hopefully it doesnt slow down minigore development

    ReplyDelete
  91. oops didnt click the link yet, this is not the secret project, secret project is the one that is worked with the company that created Geared i think, in this trenches game, the devs just mentioned minigore and pocket god thats all.

    ReplyDelete
  92. let the delay..BEGIN!

  93. Mr0r3o (beta tester)December 2, 2009 at 8:56 PM

    Just to add to what playn said, you can also play on the snow version of the normal map by unlocking xmas gore which done by getting enough kills

    ReplyDelete
  94. I guess it's an average 3 months for every episode to be approved then.

    ReplyDelete
  95. No! episode 2 only took so long because it kept getting rejected! this update will NOT take three months. (hence the beta testers, making sure nothing goes wrong) But, minigore and pocketgod both got sumbitted on the same day. Why did pocketgod already come out, but not minigore? There like the same size and funcionability! WHY DOES IT TAKE LONGER FOR CHILLINGTO! oh, aybe cuz mt. sheep have to submit to chillingto and that goes to the app store? I hope not! I WANT THE UPDATE PLEASE :) but its not in your hands...

    ReplyDelete
  96. ok just a suggestion for yall, but does the game submit the kills for achivments every kill or every time u loose? cas maybe u guys could do something like pocket god and hold ur data for open feint 2, until you die

    ReplyDelete
  97. It's heeeeeeeeeeere ! ! ! !

    ReplyDelete
  98. Wish I could see a demo of someone getting past 6000 points. The game is too hard and those unlockables a far dream away.
