We are super happy to let everyone know that the new version of 360 will not only be faster but also have a couple of new features that everyone was waiting for. The slowness issue with browsing in iOS 5 has been solved! I will be doing a separate post about everything 360 in a couple of days so stay tuned for that.

Coming back to The Drop Out, we have decided that the newest addition to the episodes will be called Lab Science. It will bring 30 more fun filled levels to everyone with the game and 2 new crazy objects to add to the excitement! With this next update the total number of levels in Drop Out will go up to 150 and we’re not planning to stop just here ;).

Today we will discuss one of the objects a.k.a the mischievously helpful teleporter. They will be placed strategically in sets of 2 for entry/exit motion. The teleporters are designed in a very fluid way thanks to our crazy scientist. In short, the direction and speed of the Boo will be maintained as you fling them. Although teleporters are there to make your play simple and fun, don’t be fooled because the zombie furries are up to no good. They have managed to switch the teleporters, so look twice before you fling. Teleporters are multi directional i.e. they will work in both directions but will transfer with teleporters of the same color bands only. Well, to simplify just refer to the image below.

The inspiration for the design of the teleporter was taken from jet turbines. We  wanted to make the teleporters look different from the normal glowy aura circley things :p and this idea came across pretty naturally for us. It was like all of us went ‘Those things that aircrafts have!’ at the same time. As we worked on it more in detail, things became much more clear and this is how the design looked at first.

Programming the teleporter was also a challenge as the direction and speed would have to be precise but our dev nailed it just right. Building the 5th Episode has been really fun for us and work on it is still on full throttle. Everybody will be able to download the update by late April. Until then stay tuned for more info on our crazy creations. Seeya!

Work has already started on the 5th episode which will have something to do with a Laboratory. Muhahahah! Concept art will be released in a day or two for everyone to ogle at. All we can tell you is that the update should be available with more challenging levels around April with any luck from Apples review process ;).

The Drop Out as the title states is about dropping off little furrie creatures which are stuck and need your help! The yellow fuzzball is a good furrie and it needs your help.

Use ball like creatures which are Boo balls to drop them but do not drop the grumpy zombie like Furries! They pack a mean punch.. The reviews received by Drop Out have been awesome so far and we thank everyone who took their time out to check the game out before and after launch. Thanks to Stuart from The Guardian, folks from Mactrast, Florian from Application iPhone, App Advice and everyone else too.

The only thing similar with Angry Birds is the launching of the Boos. Dropping off the furries becomes challenging in levels as the game progresses. Dropping the Boos aimlessly won’t help you. To conquer The Drop Out one might need a dash of skill and a hint of luck. 

P.S. Every level has a hint. You just have to figure out the right trick. Also, there are several objects that are introduced in the game which also act like obstacles and make it very very fun. Objects like moving blocks, icy blocks, flying rocks, rotating motors, bouncy platforms and much more to follow. Different furries will also keep you entertained. We have left no stone unturned with our first game and hope everybody has countless hours of fun playing it.

Guess its time to go back and finish working on the 5th Episode ;). Until next time… Seeya!

We have been working on a lot of things simultaneously for the last couple of days, hence the delay. We call all our users to come and interact with us and each other freely on the new blog. You will find a couple of things of interest about us and our apps over here. We plan to share our daily experiences with everyone and also our plans about the future.

Be sure to check out the Featured section of the blog from time to time to find about what we’re up to. We have a bundle of things planned for 2012 so just stick with us and let us show you a good time ;).
