I’m really torn up over the incredibly long delay in Apple approving the 1.5 update. The bug fixes are sorely needed, yet Apple felt it necessary to first reject it over minor UI issues, and then drag their feet in getting around to look at it again. I’m really hoping it will be approved tonight or tomorrow.
In better news, I found StickWars on the 4th page of the ‘Staff Favorites’, so it appears the Apple staff at least still enjoys playing the (buggy) version
. However, StickWars has dropped to the #5 paid spot as other games have had their updates roll out while StickWars stands stagnant. I’m still hopeful, though, and am really looking forward to the features that are coming out soon.
I get emails from people asking me ‘when does the game end?’ and ‘how do I beat it’ and finally I will be able to respond with something other than ‘it doesn’t’ and ‘you can’t. The social network integration along with achievements will allow you to battle out with you friends who is the ultimate StickWars master. I’ve noticed that there is actually a wide range of skill level of the different people playing StickWars, with some people getting stuck at level 25 and others reaching 100+. I can’t wait until people get the chance to compete with their friends.
I’m also working on the most-asked-about enemy that everyone seens to want: the giant stick figure featured on the icon of the game. He will be a ‘boss’ enemy, and it will be a very different experience fighting him than any of the current enemies. Look forward to the future updates to StickWars

Nice I hope it gets approved soon. LOL I’m stuck on lvl 72. I think how come it went down on the top paid is because of the bugs in 1.4. I’m sure as soon as apple approves of the 1.5 it will rise up again.

I have a few suggestions
Make a arm or something to grab people and put em in jail.
Also have a warrior to defend wall, and kill anyone who comes close. Make em be able to die and, make them expensive to make the building and keep them roundly. If you use these put me in the app description
Sorry for bad typing been staying up from playing your game!
Also whens the exact release date of the V1.5
And my website; you can ask me to review it, it gets 4000 views a day, for a certain price.
Thanks

I sent v1.5 to Apple 3 weeks ago, and I still have received no word on when they will approve the update.
