edited November -1 in Announce Your Game!
Version 1.01 of my Portal inspired game V is for Vortex was just released this morning. This update was wicked fast, it took less than 7 days. It's a huge update too, onscreen controls, pause system, selectable vortex option, and a bunch of bug fixes. 1.1 is on it's way with 18 more levels!

You can see a demo video of 1.01 here:

I'll come back with some promo codes once I send out my review requests.

    Nice, how'd you do your pause system so well?

    I would imagine a global Boolean that when true the actors move, right?

    How do you go about submitting promos for review requests? Any suggestions?

    ktfright

    I've that button just sets a attribute I created to 1 (pause attribute)
    then in everything that moves I have a rule that says

    if attribute paused = 0
    do everything

    so if paused = 1 nothing happens.

    I'll create a tutorial sometime this week, but I gotta wrap up a new game I'm working on, and lite versions of both Z is for zombie and V is for vortex.

    as far as review requests, just search online for iphone app review sites. Most of them have submission pages, but make sure you have an online webpage ready to go, most of them ask for it, I usually send a brief description, a link to my webpage, my youtube preview video and to the app store along with a promo code or two.
