Critter Defense! for iPhone
A friend and I are launching our first iPhone game, a cute and casual little tower defense-style game called Critter Defense. We're very excited, obviously, even though this is probably the 14,000th tower defense-ish game out there. But we think ours is pretty good. Definitely crafted with care. Anyway, I respect the Metafilter community and would love any feedback you all might have on our first time out of the gate. Thanks!!

Cool, congrats! Any chance of a free trial, a "Critter Defense! Lite"? With iPhone games, particularly new entries in an existing game type, I pretty much expect a free trial buying. Your appstore page and your web site (particularly the animation) look good, but not enough to get me over the hump of paying. (Which is crazy since $2.99 is less than a coffee drink, but there ya have it).

The gameplay innovation that caught my eye was that you got to choose your tower types. That seems fun.

We've submitted a free one and it'll probably be a couple of weeks before it hits the shelves.

Seems like a bargain at .99. I bought it and will give you feedback once I've played it.

Nice app! Took me a while to get a hang of it and unlock the level. The experience points required for a tower to power up are a nice touch--adds a new level of strategy.

I dig this game a lot. I like the little variations you made, like individual xp for units and the defined trail the critters walk on. It's an addictive little time sink. great work, here.
