Status update, links and new catchphrase

So, we are still waiting for Apple to talk to us about the hold up and they are taking their time. So much for our big trilogy! What a drag! If you can follow: Apple is holding on to Episode 15: A New Home. We have Episode 16 locked and loaded but can't submit it until Apple approves Ep 15 (or rejects it). Episode 17 is in progress, but this week Dave C is in New York for a few days.

Hopefully we can get back on track, but we honestly don't know what's going on. We have a SLIGHT concern we might be caught in the wake of the Baby-shaker controversy. I hope NOT.

In the mean-time, here is a cool review from app modo:

Also, you gotta love the internet. First Daniel (Moonclog13) writes us a theme song.

Then, we came across this video by Amanda and Aliyah. In the process of these 2 girls trying to film their reaction to the infamous "2-girls-1-cup" video (if you haven't heard of it, you don't want to know), they randomly came up with our new catchphrase: "You KNOW you like Pocket God!" You gotta stick with the video (till about 1:56) but when they get to it, its pretty compelling. Please adopt the new catchphrase and use it often.


Anyway, thanks for your patience! We will keep you posted when we know what's going on!

  4. apple is really starting to piss me with all these petty delays.You'd think that because pocket god is one of their top apps they'd put more focus on getting the updates out faster. They are probably jealous they didn't think of it.

    "you know you like pocket god"

    keep up the good work bolt, the updates are awesome, I think I'm addicted now.

  6. Apple isn't like this with anything else but apps in my experience. Either they are being overly thorough with their review process or those reviewing Pocket God aren't doing their jobs right.

  7. Can some one tell me what good is Apple review process? They approve over 90% of apps submitted, so they don't reject many and when they do, it is because of copyrighted material, drug use, or apps that are for adults. And on top of it all it takes about a week to approve!!! What are they doing? Get some more reviewers. they are probably asleep using the I nap at work app. How could they approve that?? Promoting sleeping on the job. And they approved the baby shaker app!!! Wow they might as well not even have a review process. When they get a pocket god update, they should just release it and not review it at all!!!! Come on apple you need a better approval process or something. Approve Pocket God!!!!!!!!

  8. If apple rejects this next episode. I might just get rid of my Ipod... Pocket God gives me something to do... I certainly don't want to see it dissapear.

    One thing I dont get. If Apple know's Pocket God is a big hit... Why think about eliminating it? So other DEVs can compete?
    Hipicritical situation for Apple right now right?

  11. lets start a campaign.. a WHAT THE FKCU DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING APPLE... campaign.. anyone with me?

    also on another not.. i find it funny that they rejected a previous episode because of copyright, which could mean money, were as they allow a game that gives them a very bad reputation and means they might have a slump in sales...

    APPLE.. RELEASE THE EFFING UPDATE!

    i <3 PG!

  12. Well Dave, the app update will be worth the wait, cause it looks awesome!!! Also, we moved to number 4 on the top paid apps list, but by some weatherbug app!! How dumb....

  13. Even though this update is taking forever, it'll be worth the wait. I also can't believe we moved to #4 on the top paid apps list, and to some weatherbug app!!! Anyway, let's keep playin pocket god!!

  15. I think pocketgod should expand more like those bigger apps mybee add like 5mbs of storege? I think you could add more stuff and not have to compermise stuff. Please respone to me and tell me if my idea is a good idea or not able and why it is not able to happen thx! :)

  16. Wow, Apple, you made Pocket God go from #2 app to #4 app (Sorry if it was once the #1 app, but the highest I've seen it was #2) and this makes me sad :(. They better accept it within a couple of days so you can send in episode 16 and it doesn't seem as long of a wait!

    And keep up the great work! Even the screenshot looks "brilliant"!

  20. hi again
    if you (Bolt) are considering putting up other buildings, why not make social classes, like rich Pocketians amd poor ones? their "houses" would vary from a leaf (poor) to a tree-mansion-thing on the egg island (rich). please, if you have 5 minutes, send a yay or nay my way (markus.uitz@gmail.com) so i know that you considered my opinion? thanks!
