We are looking forward to announcing some news soon…..

Nevertheless in addition to a plethora of great tracks, we are very flattered that the first Forever Drive Fan Page has been created. Thanks very much to Alex Gomes and make sure you go and check it out and Like it here!

We predict greatness!

Congrats to our friends over at Another Place Productions on their new games company…lookin forward to seeing what comes out! And don’t forget to check out Dene’s new game Incoboto, out today on iPad, it’s completely rad!

We will be speaking. And listening. And partying.

The Supermono gang will be in San Francisco next week for GDC. If you’re around, check out Dave Ferner’s talk Less Reality, More Neon: Designing Forever Drive. Or just drop by and say hi!

Yeah!

Our parent company, Red Robot Labs, just got voted in the PocketGamer list of Top 50 Developers 2012. Congratulations, guys…keep up the good work!

This is a pretty massive update, and there’s been a couple of issues with the first challenge, which should be sorted pretty soon!

Download Corrupted issue
Quite a few users reported problems downloading the 1.2 update from the iTunes store – this one was actually an Apple issue, relating to file corruption on their servers, and unfortunately quite a few games have suffered from it (check out the excellent Bike Baron, for example). We’re still waiting for word back from them on that, but hopefully the new update will refresh the cache – seemed to work for Bike Baron, so fingers crossed.

Runner-Up Prizes
Well done to the winners of challenge mode! Unfortunately a small bug means, although the top 4 should have got their massive prizes, the runners-up didn’t get their 50 credit prizes – we’ve already fixed that and submitted the update – just waiting for approval from Apple on that. We do have a list of the previous winners, and hopefully we will be able to get you your winnings. Can’t promise anything right now but we are working on it!

Dirty Rotten Cheaters
It’s come to our attention that a couple of people were cheating in this challenge. Apologies to everyone else, but these things do sometimes happen with online games, even massive ones! We have, however, removed the cheaters, it’s actually pretty obvious when somebody’s cheating since everyone else can see their replays! We’ve fixed the exploit they were using, if you do see someone else cheating give us a shout at mail[at]supermono-studios.com.

Hopefully these initial problems will be sorted really soon – all part of making the game better! In the meantime, thanks for your patience, and keep checking back for updates – they’re coming through as soon as Apple approves them, so very soon we hope!

Snowy!

Happy Christmas/Chanuka/Winter Solstice/Festivus/Winter Holiday/New Year everybody! It’s not actually snowing here, but we thought the snowflakes looked more cheerful than just doing a torrential downpour of rain, which is closer to the truth. Wow, that was a crazy year:-)

We’ve had a fantastic time in 2011, with Forever Drive hitting #1 in the Racing Games category in over fifty countries (massive thanks to all our players!), our team in the UK expanding (welcome Alex and Shu, who were completely vital in the creation of Forever Drive, and hello to Patrick who’s just joined), and of course our new American brothers & sisters over at Red Robot!

2012 looks set to be even more insane – we’ve got a massive update to Forever Drive coming out just after new year, plus we’ll hopefully be moving in to our shiny new studio in January (more on that soon), not to mention new, exciting, secret projects…..shhhh secret! LOL
Happy New Year everybody, and see you on the other side!

Yeah!

Cool…Quality Index recommends Forever Drive in their Top 10 games list of October 2011 list! Thanks guys!
