Hasty Words now available in the App Store
Hi all,
My first attempt at an iOS game using Gideros is now in the app store. I'm just testing the water to see how the process of creating and submitting an app works, but I'd be interested to hear what you think of the game. Here are some promo codes:

Gorkem - Yes I appreciate the splash screen is still there. I will be purchasing a licence as soon as my next pay check from my normal job comes through. I am also considering making the entire project available to other Gideros users as a sample app.

Thanks Dud, I'll be sure to leave a review!

Anyway - I enjoyed the game, it's nicely done and looks solid (didn't crash), it's quite addictive trying to get the last word in before the time runs out - I don't know how big the dictionary is but I always find it amusing when it recognises my favourite swear words
I like the sparkly bits in the background but there's still some room for improvements.
The help text on a non retina device is really hard to read - maybe use a bigger font and have a scrolling area instead.
I'd like to be able to touch a letter again and have it removed from the word - especially useful if you press the wrong letter at the end of a long word and haven't got time to re-enter a word before the time runs out.
Also as the time counts down how about making the letters start to jiggle to really increase the feeling of tension as the timer is about to run out.
What about an arcade mode where by you can earn extra time by getting longer words?
A good start, hopefully you'll be able to make enough to enable you to upgrade from the free version of Gideros and get rid of the starting delay, however this is one thing that I do love about Gideros is that you can actually get an app submitted even with the free version
Highscore is 9 words : 4290 in a minute!

I don't know how you're choosing the letters randomly but I think it's better to distribute them related to this statistics: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_frequency#Relative_frequencies_of_letters_in_the_English_language

When I buy something from device, I only get an option to buy and that's all.
