This is a disgusting scam, you haven't even bothered to zoom the camera out or make bigger maps, you've just added high resolution graphics.
ReplyDeletegraphics could be one of the most expensive parts to do in high resolution games...
ReplyDeleteEmail sent!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the emails, we really hope you enjoy the game! There's still chance to get the free update if you're quick.
ReplyDeleteWe'll let you know and update the blog post once all 50 copies are gone.
sent :D hope i got in fast enough
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize you had to purchase today. Just thought the contest was today. I won't be getting my iPad for a few weeks. So although I'm a winner I suppose you can pass it on to someone else...
ReplyDeleteYou expect us to re-buy the same game for the ipad? I support good games and developers but this is such a scam... I'm not buying anymore games, and I'm spreading the word, greedy basterds!
ReplyDeleteWe all agree the dude above this comment is a f@ggot, reterd, and a basterd.
ReplyDelete@CaptainManiac1: You can purchase Minigore HD in iTunes on your Mac or PC and transfer the game to your iPad when you get it.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a PayPal account, but I have had Minigore since the beginning, I'm zamzarvideo and (I have two iPods) ZamZar on OpenFeint, is there any way to gift the app if I provide you with my email address? :) I can post my highscores if you want, or you could check my account to verify that I have the game.
ReplyDeleteMinigore HD looks great though.
ok look @ the people complaining its the same game etc. etc. they actually went and remade everything from the ground up JUST for the iPad so they can get the most out of it. now your getting the 2DLC's for FREE in the iPad version, your getting more details, better graphics, extra graphics not in the minigore normal and itll continue to get updates just like the minigore we have now.
ReplyDeletesure its based on the same game but every single game currently in the appstore for iPad is doing what MS are doing. their remaking their games and selling it in the iPad store for the same price as MS
its not like its a conspiracy, go check out the store and you'll see hundreds or thousands of apps doing the same.. even then its like what? $4
Interestingly enough I JUST purchased it for the $4.99 price. I'm doing this even though I don't get my iPad for another month so I can buy it at this reduced price and to promote future updates at a faster speed.
ReplyDeleteKimmo or Timo can you tell me whether or not all characters will be unique by Episode 4?
I don't care about the iPad or anything else...I just want VERSION 3.7!!!
ReplyDeleteI've been waiting all day for this update and they disappointed me!
I know this game is ment for the Ipad but will it run on the iphone 3GS?
ReplyDeleteIf I don't win this contest I will buy its anyways if only to support mountain sheep.
And to that annoying anon, if your going to spend 500-800 dollars on the ipad why do you care about spending 5 more dollars on a HD version when you can still play the old one if you want to.
damn apple.. hurry up :(
ReplyDeleteif we dont get it today (going by australian time) we have to wait till monday.. hopefully it makes it in by midnight

remember to watch it in 720p for best viewing :)
April 2nd my ass
ReplyDeletei don't care about HD apps
ReplyDeletei want 3.7 to be released by today!!!! APPLE!!!!
Is there any chance that it will be updated to 3.7 over the weekend???
ReplyDeleteThe update has been rejected
ReplyDelete@anon above
ReplyDeleteit hasnt. unless MS say it has, it hasnt
april 2nd? dont make me laugh, it's already 3rd and no update for "minigore" not HD. i'll call it mini"shit".
ReplyDeleteErm April 2nd was only ever a guess. MS never said it was definately coming out by then, besides the wait for approval depends on apple, MS can't do anything to speed it up. Blame the iPad for the delay of approval
ReplyDeletethis is the best game on the iPhone Platform, Thank you guys.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work
Guys, Guys, Guys, please calm down, did anyone say you had to buy the game??? Are they making you??? Please leave them alone, they made an iPad version (just like everyone else) to take advantage of the higher resolution, the stunning screen, and the way more powerful processor, I guarantee you that game will run like butter and it will never ever crash. I can't to play it, (well as soon as I get my iPad).
ReplyDeleteFYI: Minigore development won't slow down, because this isn't a different game, for the most part its copying and pasting code (with respect to the different resolution)
FYI: The Minigore Update and Minigore HD were submitted at the same time. Apple has put alot more focus on the iPad right now (huh huh wonder why, maybe it launched today huh).
I am also a developer, and I know this from first experience, when I submitted my iPad game, it wen't into review within 2 min, and my iPod / iPhone game is still waiting for review (Apple has put alot more focus on the iPad right now, not without cause though)
(when you submit a game to apple they have to review it first and if it passes review it will go onto the store)
So the update will be out, when its out, its not like they've lied to you or anything, if you want to complain to apple about long review times go complain to them (I wholeheartedly endorse that, because I would also like my update to come out soon also)
Sorry about that, my ranting is over :)
Can't wait to play the update MS!
If you would like to check out my games: (not that anyone would after that long post haha)

What The Chosen One was trying to say is:
ReplyDeleteThe update has been rejected.
@Anon above: You're an idiot.
ReplyDelete@thechosenone
ReplyDeleteplease dont advertise your game here go to touch arcade for that
Go to the Unofficial Minigore forums and join at http://minigore.pro-forums.us/
ReplyDelete(This includes Timo and Kimmo)
Yah Timo/Timmo please join we have some really good ideas please join
ReplyDeleteI wasn't advertising, I was proving that I was a developer and there is touch arcade thread (I think there are still some promos, if you hurry up)
ReplyDeletewell maybe I was advertising a little bit, but I'm sorry about that and I won't do it again, my bad.
No the update is not rejected, it'll be out soon, :) sometimes you just have to be patient.:D
yeah dont worry guys the update will come out sooner or later and it hasnt been rejected. Why would it if the 3.7 update is out for the ipad? It's pretty much the same update just with high resolution and graphics
ReplyDeleteThe update has been rejected. I just contacted Apple.
ReplyDelete@anony above
ReplyDeleteI hope you're lying...
This update has kept me on the edge of my seat all last week and this weekend!
I am happy with Minigore! Nice game and graphics. Too bad i Live in France so i won't get any iPad like everyone here in US..
ReplyDeleteWhatever I'm eagerly waiting for the update on the LD minigore!
What are you doing Apple? there ain't no sex content or something special. The update just adds a few improvements, I can't see the point in taking that much time to approve it...
Whatever, I'll be waiting!
don't believe anon above
ReplyDeleteupdate will be released by April, 5
I'm telling you Apple rejected the update
ReplyDeleteno anon above timo told us on TA that it is being reviewed by apple right now BE PATIENT
ReplyDeleteHOw do you know it will be released by April 5

ReplyDeleteI won this contest and this is so confusing, the HD graphics are great but its soooo annoying cause watching it makes it harder for me to play the normal version
ReplyDelete@all the complainers
ReplyDeleteThe update HAS NOT been rejected, I'm now a beta tester and I can CONFIRM this. Apple is just SLOW.
Apple is slow? Like Special Olympics slow?
ReplyDeleteworse then Special Olympics
ReplyDeleteJust want to inform all of you. The update is out.
ReplyDeleteno its not
ReplyDeleteminigore when 3.7 will be upgraded?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the continuing work on a great game but PLEASE dont give up on the original for the stupid iPad version! And as far as Zombies go, we want to FIGHT them, not play as one of them! I've seen the shots of John battling the undead and it looks amazing. Please give this to us!
ReplyDelete@Django
ReplyDeleteDont worry Zombies are planned for Episode 5. If were lucky it will be out before the world ends.
"Upscaled graphics look great, but the controls actually take a hit on the larger form factor of the iPad. The developers have added touch screen controls as an alternative, but we still prefer playing this one on our iPhones."
ReplyDelete-T.A.
Glad I haven't upgraded.
the controls would be preference really, if you have bigger hands itll be easier to hold
ReplyDeleteiPad wasnt made for gaming, hence its large size. its more for entertainment like books, movies, web browsing
Come on apple!!!!!!
ReplyDeletesorry is 3.7 out or not? cause i cant find it
ReplyDeleteeveryone will probably think this is a dumb question but...... do we have an estimated release date for 4.0 yet?
ReplyDeleteI believe either a beta tester or 1 of the devs stated that they were close to completing of the features for 4.0.....
are we talkin weeks or months ???
dude i was on holidays and after a week there are 2 more posts with lots of comments. how should i underestand whats going on? i just asked whether the stupid update is out or not. can you tell me?
ReplyDelete@ ftousougamwto
ReplyDeleteNo the update is not out but is submitted.
Its not out, most of those comments are not worth your time reading

ReplyDeleteDownloading it now.. The icon changed in Australian store so doing the rebuy trick
ReplyDeletew00t its out!
ReplyDeleteOMG, Im freaking out
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't save :'( for me atleast
ReplyDeletePredator furry makes it too hard! My 18000s are now 8000s! Still 5th on the new leaderboard though currently :) I'm enjoying it while it lasts.
ReplyDeleteHelp! I've had my kill count reset and all characters relocked! I had them all but Sensei. Can you fix it Mountain Sheep??? OpenFeint name: Horace?
ReplyDeleteIt doesnt save....!!!! -1
ReplyDeleteGUYS THE UPDATE IS OUT :D
ReplyDeletesoo i also lost all my unlocked stuff, which was everything....
ReplyDeleteHelp!!!
ReplyDeleteI've had my kill count reset to zero and all characters relocked! I had them all but Sensei Evan. Anyone else have the same problem?
also all my achievements are reset as well... lame ps for in app purchase, just rebuy it for free
ReplyDeleteAll of my stuff reset too :(.
ReplyDeleteMy OpenFeint is DavidChu. Do you guys think you could store the progress somewhere? Is it possible through OpenFeint?
ReplyDeleteFor me it worked, and I'm really glad about it, beacause I got Sensei :)
ReplyDeleteThe second time I opened it, all my progress is gone, I had all characters!!!!
ReplyDeleteTHAT'S SHIT :((((((
Sorry, but I can't believe such a big Bug came into it within this long time!!!!!!!!
Sorry, my Openfeint ID is: Cool-Fool
ReplyDeleteI'm the Guy above -.-
I've heard that the graphics are still the same on this update for the iphone. The maps still look the same and everything. Is this true?
ReplyDeleteGreat all this time waiting for a bug. Now how long are we going to have to wait for a fix?!?!?
ReplyDeleteno shit! it doesn't save! what a stupid bug
ReplyDeleteWell this sucks, all my unlocked characters have been relocked and the worse thing is my kill count got reset as well. Timo and Kimmo, you guys probably have a lot of pissed off people to pacify now.
ReplyDeleteIt's true - the second time you play (after exiting the game), your unlocked characters are now locked. Score is reset. And OpenFeint doesn't seem to be connecting.
ReplyDeleteAlso it doesn't save after that either.
ReplyDeleteapril fools
ReplyDeleteoh thank god i looked at this before i played the update :P
ReplyDeletewhere's rooteboy now you fucking pansy licking cocksucker!
ReplyDelete
