Wow, all that is possible with GLBasic? How did you do the block physics? Very cool and professional looking game. :good: Great job on the music and artwork too, I like the intro sequence. I just downloaded the app yesterday, but I don't see the update yet.

I see from the preview movies that the "level complete" sign appears a bit later now, instead of appearing instantly and blocking view of the last destruction animations. Btw the lite version has the same app-icon as the full version, I think it should have a "Lite" or "Free" banner. It could also use a "reset game" option to reset all finished levels. :) btw are there any easter eggs in the game?

I like it...very impressive for GLBasic.

I do have a couple of comments though.

I've only tried the free version so I don't know if those things have been corrected since, but there's a couple of spelling errors in it. First of all "Blocx"? - that's not a word, but of course...that could be intentional.  ;)

However, on level 1 it says "distroy" and "canoon ball" and both of those are definitely spelling mistakes. Does it really matter? No, not as long as the game is good, but it does make it seem a little less professional which is too bad since it's otherwise very nice.

The menu is also pretty basic and that "Select Level" sign is annoying because it looks like you should press it to select a level...but it opens a webpage instead. I think it needs to be clearer what is what.

Just my $0.02. ;)

This game is so awesome! I should start featuring games on the main page.

In my version (no time to test the update, yet - and no sound for youtube here) when you finished the level, the victory tune was played mixed with all the bombing sound in the background.
I think, when the game is won, the game should let the background stuff play on, until everything has stopped moving (or almost stopped) before the victory tune comes and the "Complete" logo spoils the action on the background.

ACE GAME!

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. :)

Was just playing again today and I noticed something, there's no about screen or credits screen.

I think it's always important to give (and take) credit where credit is due. Else the users might get the impression all these apps just come out of nowhere. And they don't realise that programmers, graphics artist etc. worked hard on it.
