Okay...this is weird! We were just told the update was rejected because the app icon didn't match the store icon. Dave went in and changed the icon for the store (we usually just wait until the update goes out)....and then we expected it to either take another week to go through, or just be put back in the queue...But to our surprise, they immediately approved it.
So this update basically has a new feature..which is the ability to attack the T-Rex with a spear. When the T-Rex appears, you can pick up the spear and drop it into the islander's hands A damage bar will also appear to indicate how close you are to conquest.
Also in this update is a secret easter-egg for you to find!
New note: The god-stat screen isn't saving! We were so focused on animation engine optimization that it must have been broken in the process and we missed it. Sorry about that guys!
Hopefully we will be forgiven once you see that Dave put a huge amount of effort into was engine optimization. Let us know if you notice the difference!
P.S. because we were taken by surprise, its taking me a bit to update the App Store...I'm on it tho.
P.P.S. If you comment about finding the easter egg I will hold off on approving it until we think most people found it!
Umm just to piont out u spelled pygmy wrong..... looove the update
ReplyDeleteYeah, I saw the update an hour ago. I ALWAYS look for updates when i go on the phone
ReplyDeleteif you tap the statue it kills everyone
ReplyDeleteCome on, bring on the octopus and the tsunami
ReplyDeleteTap statue 3 times...
ReplyDeleteYou know you love Pocket God... ^_^
ReplyDeleteThe easter egg was awesome... I found it right when I loaded the app!
Keep up the good work!
I found the Easter egg! It's the octopus statue like thing!
ReplyDelete(Tap the statue a bit) And it says in an "epic," voice " You know you like pocket god." And all of the current villagers on the island explode!!!
Awesome update haha. I saw a comment about giving them RPG stats? great idea. and also I made up a game where I fill the island with Pygmies and then call the T-rex and see if I can kill it before it kills all the Pygmies... its really fun haha
ReplyDeletewhat happenes to everytime is that the oogs idk what you guys call them now but yea when one goes in the out house batyhroom thing i knock and he comes out but the second person that goes in i knock he gets stuck and i keep knocking and he gets stuck and alll the oogs get exploded because the other guy cant get out hahah
ReplyDeletefunny but suxx
please write back or something or fix please can live with that for anylonger thanx and keep it up hope you guys do make a second app
ily bye!!oxoxox
Awsome Update! Love protecting my villagers! I say the spear should stay even if the T-Rex ident around. The villager who picks up the spear should becom greedy and attack of the other villagers, once that greedy villager is alone he should start glaring at his "Amazing," spear. Kind like the Vampire Bite.
ReplyDeletei found the secret. i like it
ReplyDeletepretty cool.
keep up the good work.
really love pocket god
cool i found the easter thingy i thikn its not really an egg but yeah on the octopus statue you tap on a few times and then it says "YOU KNOW YOU LIKE POCKET GOD!!!!" in a deep dark voice sooo awesome i think it was that was it?!?!?!
ReplyDeletewell yeah and when it says that right after if there is any oogs then the statue will kill them like explode them as if they were struck my lighting and they vanish but when it says the dep scary voice the diomond on its face lights up nice secret thing BOLT you the best and
"I KNOW I LIKE POCKET GOD"
You know you like pocket god. Found it.
ReplyDeleteFound it
ReplyDeleteI think I have found it .. By tapping the crystal on the statue :)
ReplyDeletei found the easter egg and you know you like pocket god
ReplyDeleteFound it click on the new statue twice it said you know you like pocket god
ReplyDeleteWell love the update, something is wrong with feint though, several users and myself are having the same issue. The text now goes above the viewing area and you have to scroll up to read everything. Otherwise nice job guys.
ReplyDeleteugh its not there for me!
ReplyDeleteMy iPhone randomly broke today (figures) so i cant download it until tomorrow morning! AHHHH!!! now people are going to give it away... =[
ReplyDeleteCan I have a hint to the easter egg please ?
ReplyDeleteIs the secret thingie (you know you like pocket god) or does it have something to do with the bondsai tree? On the instructions menu it had a picture of a finger print on the bush on the right hand side root like you are supposed to click it there but I don't know? Can you please tell me!
ReplyDeleteliked the update. just thought that the spear could stay on the island without the T-rex. make the pygmies attack each other! also loved the easter egg.
ReplyDeletewhy don't you guys make an update with aliens? with UFO's, alien pygmy, laser gun, etc. it would be awesome!
Too fun as always! I found the easter egg. Hint : It is on the first island
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH!! THANK YOU FOR THE CONSTANT UPDATES!! U GUYS ROCK!!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I dig the easter egg! ^^
Hmmm.. an Octopus god, eh? :]
ReplyDeleteWhat are the purposes of all these gods here though? And all of them just Conquer Tyrannosaurus'?
I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH!! THANK YOU FOR THE CONSTANT UPDATES!! U GUYS ROCK!!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I dig the easter egg! ^^
The update is not coming up on my ipod touch... Help please!!
ReplyDeleteso i found the Easter egg
ReplyDeleteits pretty cool
i like how you incorporated the one youtube video into the game
good update
keep em coming
LOL. love the easter egg. The stats idea is cool to, but you guys should have zombies.
ReplyDeleteLove it! But MAJOR PROBLEMS with fishing. It completely imploded on me. The rod, line, and bobber came apart. Then when I tapped the villager to take it away from him, the rod got stuck to the background. It couldn't be turned off or on or unstuck or used at all. I tried to regenerate it but couldn't. I'll keep trying to find out when it happens
ReplyDeleteYeah I was like why won't my god status name save!?!?!? That sucks, can ya'll fix that in a mini update?! Also I D K if anyone else was or has had this happen but on the ORIGINAL island, when you pick up the shark to have him knock over or eat the oogs he just dissapears? like vanishes? Is that a glitch? He doesn't do it on the new 2nd island just the original 1st. Hmm.
ReplyDeleteAnyways. I love the "easter egg" haha very cool. ESPECIALLY what it say's does!
That Easter egg made me crack up. Genious idea!
ReplyDeleteLove the update, love the easter egg.
ReplyDeleteLOL I thought that Easter egg was always there and I was just slow on finding it... guess I'm not so slow after all lol.
ReplyDeleteps: I was vaporized for loving pocket godl
KEEP THE EASTER EGG ITS HILARIOUS
ReplyDeleteI died because I thought I would pick it up ok my own...
ReplyDeleteThen I hot vaporized for loving pocketgod...
I'm depressed now...haha
I LOVE THIS GAME, LOVE IT LOVE IT, PLEASE CONTINUE UPDATE
ReplyDeleteFound the easter egg too. Very cool.
ReplyDeleteI'm also having trouble with the fishing. I was in the meteorite mode then switched to fishing, but the rod seemed to get stuck by the volcano. See a cap here: http://tinypic.com/r/2eee74j/5 Restarting the game fixed it though.
Thanks for such a great game and for all the hard work you guys put into it. My 4 year old nephew loves playing and killing off the oogs, and so do I. I can't wait to see what you guys come up with next for both your new game and Pocket God.
now since this new update, I have one guy in the bathroom and 5 guys on the island. The guy in bathroom won't come out when I knock.
ReplyDeletelol
i found the secret!!!
ReplyDeletethe easter egg has a bug :(! If you tip the oogas to the side (when they'd be wiggling to balance) hitting the secret thing will freeze them in place until you move again or kill em.
ReplyDeleteI can't find the Easter egg! Great update though.
ReplyDeleteFound the egg. Ha ha I didn't really get what you meant by egg so I just starting looking for... Something. But I'm so glad that the egg is where it's at. Bahahaha I was laughing really hard because I didn't think that something would be new with when the egg it. Amazing amazing amazing. Keep up the good work. ^_^!!!
ReplyDeletethe latest update fix the animation problem
ReplyDeleteit is as good as before
just one thing to fix to the latest update
when u have all six ilanders on the screen and pich one up in the air and swing him up and down he fells into the water and by himself
its getts a little problem with the animation when u do that,fix that on the next update !!!
but still this update whas a huge improvment
keep the good work up dave!!!
its a nice easter eggxD
ReplyDeletefound it, haha i laughed
ReplyDeletethe update havent come! aaah, should I delete and reinstall it or what?
ReplyDeleteAwesome!!!!!! I just found the easter egg and i am still laughing! You KNOW you like the easter egg!
ReplyDeleteWOW i found an easter egg, within the easter egg. If you start a hurricane, then do the easter egg, they get vaporised in mid air and their ghosts fall in the water! TRY IT! it rocks
ReplyDeleteHow to make an bulls eye with lightning?
ReplyDeleteHelp plz:(
Great update, an c00l trick:
Drop egg3 times and when trex baby comes out deselwct the trex option and you get only a spear
Hey, I really love the new update!! but there is something you guys need to fix before you submit another one, the spear won't come down after a few time of defeating the T-Rex. I don't know is anyone else has this problem but I have the spear icon in the scroll down menu on and the progress bar under the t-rex is still there, but no spear...
ReplyDeleteI still love the update!! Every time you update, I seem to be on it longer and longer. :) I love the easter egg thing. That was really funny.
Excellent update, the status bar is an awesome idea, maybe a smaller status bar above the Oog would be pretty sensible. Just a suggestion for a future update, I know you probably get about a million of these every day but I was thinking, maybe it would be a cool idea to incorporate the use of seasons into the game e.g. you know how you scroll across to change the weather, maybe if you keep scrolling it goes to autumn and then winter then summer and spring etc etc. I'm probably getting a bit carried away now but each season could have it's own trait, like in winter you should be able to make snow balls etc.
ReplyDeleteLove the Easter Egg-please think about my update suggestion
hey bolt I saw the artwork u posted on here and I really liked the one by A.J
ReplyDeletewinters (pocket planet) and I thought that that would make a great PG 2 if u were going to make one anyway the features would be like u flick the oogs
in the black hole and mabye an alien as well and also when u turn gravity off they could fly around the screen getting freaked out anyway hope u like my thoughts and thanx to the created of the artwork hope u use it as PG 2
cya

i am super pisset at you right now!! i have a ipod touch generation 2 v. 2.2.. and deleted pocket god because the update did'nt show. when i tried to reinstall it, it said that it requires iphone version 2.2.1!!!! how could you guys let all of your fans with ipod touch down!! i hate you.. screw you...
ReplyDeleteim never getting pocket god back now... and i've paid for it... damn you..
Why not make it where you can tap on the sun and it becomes crazy hot and everyone gets set on fire and blows up!
ReplyDeleteIt says I have to buy it... AGAIN!
ReplyDeletelove the easter egg i thought it rocked keep it up
ReplyDeletep.s. plz fix the god name
Loved the easter egg, keep it please!
ReplyDeleteI thought all updates were free? It shows no update for me, and when I look in the top 25 it looks like I havent even bought the app, but I have!
ReplyDeletei cant see the new update why bolt WHY!!!???
ReplyDeletejust let your fans down :'(
Keep the easter egg! Also i had the bathroom glitch too. The pigmy gets stuck in the bathroom and wont come out when you knock. Pocket god rules!
ReplyDeletestedsnavn- go die. I have an iPod touch & it works fine for me. & Im sure it works for others too. Either get your iPod serviced or your BRAIN serviced. Fool.
ReplyDeleteFound the easter egg! Poof!
ReplyDelete@stedsnavn -
ReplyDeletewhy would you be mad at THEM!? They work hard on getting the updates out. It's your own fault for not updating the firmware to 2.2.1! I did that AGES ago. And I have an iPod Touch. It works FINE for me. Don't go dissing people if they are doing all they can to work on something that they COULD be not doing at all.
Screw this! I have an itouch and I no longer have the software to download it! AAASAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!
ReplyDeleteLOL I really like the Easter egg please keep it and release more!
ReplyDeletemy itunes just won't sync. it says syncing then it shows updating pocket god then it stops and says sync complete but pocket god is nowhere on my ipod :(( what can i do??
ReplyDeleteaaahhhh! are you not planning to keep the easter egg?! KEEP IT!!!!!!!
ReplyDeletei love the octopus god surprise,, haha u knoo u like pocket god
ReplyDeleteI can't find the easter egg :(
ReplyDelete@Stedsnavn: what?. Pocked God should work. I have iPod Touch Second Gen. with 2.2.1. It's been out for a while. iPhone and iPod Touch use the same OS, if people don't know.
I love the new update but there is one bug that I have. If you have the Oogs in a hurricane and then you quickly use the easter egg, the Oogs vaporize in the air but then outline of them still fall in the ocean
ReplyDeleteExample: http://i43.tinypic.com/1zlszex.jpg
ahaha I love how if you kill them with the secret the death reason is "by Loving Pocket God"
ReplyDeletealso, why is "T-Rex Feed" capitalized but "t-rex egg-hit then drowning" is not
just wondering... :)
Found Easter egg. Pretty cool. I know I luv pg
ReplyDeleteYES! i downloaded it! But my iPhone is still pretty mezzed up... *sigh* Still fun to play though!
ReplyDeleteTHE NEW UPDATE RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU GUYS HAVE TO USE MY IDEA ABOUT THE OOGS GETTING ABDUCTED BY ALIENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT WOULD BE SO COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PS I thought of the alien abduction idea before anyone else so please give credit where credit is deserved. PPS I LOVE the easter egg. Great idea incorperating the "You know you like Pocket God" into it. Don't worry, I will not give away the surprise. I will only say YOU GUYS TOTALY ROCK!!!!!!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteI forgot to ask. When is the next update coming out? I'll settle for an estimate if that is okay. Please reply either with a post on your blog or a comment on mine. PS Thanks for the surprise update. I needed it after the long week of school I've been through. And it's only Wednesday!!!!!! Thanks. ;)
ReplyDeletestedsnavn seems upset to me. What do you think?
ReplyDeleteI FORGOT TO ASK YOU AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I feel like such an idiot for forgetting again!!!! Anyway, could you guys post a picture of the next update? I have been saving them cronologically in my ipod and I really would like to ad another to my collection. PS Just so you know,YOU GUYS ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeletelove the easter egg and cant wait for new update also every time i check itunes it shows chapter 16 as the most resent
ReplyDelete***DON'T APPROVE THIS PLEASE***
ReplyDeleteThis seems to be the only way to contact you guys, so just don't accept this into the comments please :)
-----------
I'm starting to make a Pocket God animation and was wondering how I could improve my Pigmy for it...

You can e-mail me at ben_gronfors@hotmail.com, or I will see it here eventually, OR you can just ignore me :) (in case you need that option)
Thanks!
(Remember, don't approve this!)
Love the update!
ReplyDeleteBut there's a problem, all of my god stats, tribe names, and number of sacrifices and gifts have all restarted. I don't know if it is due to the update or not but is there's way to get it back?
oh my, i'm so sorry, I just got a mail from bolt creative and found out the new 2.2.1 software is free! I am going to kill my brother for telling me that it cost 10 dollars
ReplyDeleteHint for the easter egg: "YOU KNOW YOU LIKE POCKET GOD" *distintegrates*
ReplyDeleteI found the easter egg and i was "shown the light".
ReplyDeleteI love the new update. But i wish you could know what achievements are possible to get, so that you can use them as a personal goal
ReplyDeleteI haven't had any problems with my iPod or pocket god app. Am I lucky or what? Have you guys thought about MY aliens idea yet? Sorry if I am sounding impatient, but I just REALLY want to know. Peace out if you know what I mean. ;)
ReplyDeletelol ill admit that easter egg wasnt the most obvious but its so cool its just like poof there all gone
ReplyDeletelol i found the easter egg before the sword fighting thing. Is this foreshadowing a new monster?
ReplyDeleteWAAHHHH!!!! I CAN NOT FIND THE EASTER EGG!!!!! SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME I WANT TO SEE WHY ITS SO FUNNY!!!!!! I HAVE BEEN TRYING AND TRYING!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!
ReplyDelete*Im a brasilian and I not speak english very good.
ReplyDeleteI FOUND THE EASTER EGG!!! Just touch the precious on the statue two times and all oogs explod!!! I THINK POCKET GOD IS VERY COOL AND I LOVE THE CONSTANTLY UPDATES!!!
BOLT CREATIVE RULEZ!!!
Gabriel Levcovitz
It won't let me update, only repurchase
ReplyDeletewhat other "accomplishments" are theree??
ReplyDeletefound easter egg!
ReplyDeletepretty funny...
"you know you like Pocket God"...(clue?)
love the update; it's awesome and so is the easter egg.
ReplyDeletei'm not happy about the no longer once a week update but i understand. :(
The tsunami is going to be awesome.
I would love to see the spear stay so a islander can go mad with power and kill the others, but i think it is too soon for aliens to show up; the pygmes are living with dinosaurs.
love the update; can't wait for "Surfs Up"
Thanks
great update
ReplyDeletethe egg is frigin sweet
havin trouble getting some of god stats though? probaly just me.
Just keep doin what your doin guys.
For some reason, I can't download the new update. I've heard other people have had the same problem. I have an iPod touch, so that might factor into the problem. Please fix this, I really like this app. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteeaster egg......keep on touching the octopus and everyone will blow up.
ReplyDeleteeaster egg is to keep on touching the octopus statue...everyone will blow up.
ReplyDeleteI know I LOVE PocketGod! Why not being able to blow into the microphone and cause them to blow away or tsunami or something like that you'll figure out. And make it so ipod touch users can use it too (you'll figure that out too). Thanx for the updates and continue pocket god 1.
ReplyDeleteI have a screenshot I took of pocket god... Who can I send it to? Email me at atytla@optonline.net
ReplyDeleteThat easter egg thing is awesome! The voice is rad. You guys are the best app makers out there. I cant wait for the next update.
ReplyDeleteThe egg doesn't work unless the egg is just a flash around the ruby and the islanders go poof. If that's not supposed to happen, post it out and tell it to Awesomeness thanks
ReplyDeleteHa ha wow I love the update and the Easter egg is awesome and so unexpected..... Great job guys
ReplyDeletethey should make another seperate app called suggestion box where you can suggest straight off the itouch, also, they should make a stratergy guide with weird pics and a action figure with plastic power(e.g. lightning) and the pygmys and t-rex, ect.....
ReplyDeletei found the easter egg in about 10 seconds but totaly by accident now you know you like pocket god
ReplyDeleteOH you know what?!?! the pygmies should be able to attack the t-rex with the fishingrod! just to add a little variables in the HP loss of the t-rex.
ReplyDeleteI think it would be fun to give the islanders a soccer ball to kick around the island. It would be both a gift and a curse. Playing soccer would make them happy, but the ball would get kicked into the water, where the islanders would come in contact with the shark, or perhaps a new water danger. Of course they would be eaten. Playing in a storm could allow the ball to be struck by lightning, thereby wiping out an entire tribe.
ReplyDeletefound the little red easter egg! You KNOW you like pocket god....... You guys ROCK. Keep it up!
ReplyDeletefound the little red easter egg! You KNOW you like pocket god... lol i love it! You guys are THE greatest. Keep it up!!
ReplyDeletedoes the easter egg look like a jewel? and when is the next update and what is going to be included
ReplyDeletelove this one!
what color is the Easter egg?
ReplyDeletewhen is the next update and what will be included?
thanks for the update-a-week :)
About that one guy saying that it is too early for MY aliens idea, it is the perfect time for aliens. After you guys do the update with the octopus and the tsunami of course. ;)
ReplyDeleteI have to pay for the update!
ReplyDeleteHi, I really like they update... but I think it was a kind of small. I find a bug or something like that. When you are in the first island and the clouds are in front of the sun, then you take the meteor to make an eclipse. It makes an eclipse in front of the cloud and not in front of the sun. I think there is 1 bug more, when you star the app, it stars with the typical image of pocket god with the word loading then it dissapears and it is all in black for one moment. I hope this helps you for the next update Have a nice day bye
ReplyDeleteOMG i was like looking around for an actual egg lol how embarrassing.. I later realised that the lighty uppy statue thing was actually the easter egg....
ReplyDeleteshame. :(
its not letting my ipod touch download the app, ive given it about 24 hours, and its saying i dont own it in the app store, as well as its saying that i dont have the right updates for it when my itouch is a 2nd gen, is there something going on?
ReplyDeleteif you are going to make rpg stats they should be:
ReplyDeleteAcutacy (or however you spell it)- increase chance to throw spear at dino head
Strength- more damage dealt per hit
Agility- can run from the dino faster,
Or maybe endurance- can throw spear faster
Found it. I guess there was more to that thing than decoration. He's like an assistant now.
ReplyDeleteDear pocketgod,
ReplyDeleteI cant receive update from appstore. There is no notification abt this new update in my update list.
Pls advise.
found it, it made the change on the origonal island worth while
ReplyDeleteLol, im an octopus god, and the easter egg blows people up! (you would find the connection if you know the easter egg)
ReplyDeleteP.S. just my icon is saving, nothing else
When you tap the jewel on the octopus 3 times it says you know you like pocket god then they all poof
ReplyDeletehey guys i need alittle help..ok well iv been waiting for this last pygmy update forever and now i finally saw that it came out but when i look in my updates its not there and also when i go to the app store it looks like i havent even bought it yet even though i did like 5 weeks ago.....any ideas?
ReplyDeleteif you tap the gem on the statue and drag your finger around it kills everyone on the island
ReplyDeleteoooookkkkkkk, creepy easter egg, 'YOU KNOW YOU LIKE POCKET GOD!!!!' CABAAAAMMMM!
ReplyDeleteWhy didn't I get the Update for Episode 17. It sounds like everyone else got the update. I am an ipod user. :( :(
ReplyDeleteI can't get the god name to stay changed that's re only problem with the update I love the easter egg it cool but the voiceis kinda hard to understand but it's cool they just vaporize!!!!!!! LOL!!! I have an iPod victor u just check the app store duh!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDelete
