New HighSpeedChase iPhone 1.2 Features Bunny hopping is a new move. You fly off the new ramps in the game, if you land on a car it explodes and your car is propelled back into the air. This gives players more options for takedowns and gives skilled players something new to master. You can also move your car in the air, albeit slower, so you line up the next "hop". New weapons are available to unlock in the game, instead of just upgrading without choice you can choose to upgrade to a pistol, shotgun and machine gun that fires wherever you tap. Ammo can run-out. Custom upgrades lets players choose exactly how their credits are spent on which part of the car. Find that you die to early Then buy some extra body armour. Got a real kick for speed Tweak the engine. Pickups such as ammo and health let you revitalise your game, as long as you can find time to pick them up! Special pick-ups give you have access to awesome power-ups. Specials that let you fling NPC cars around with the swipe of a finger and more! The main focus of this update is to ramp the fun up and improve the graphics of the game - preparing it for the future updates that will add more structure and goals to achieve. Remember, this upgrade is absolutely FREE! So check out HighSpeedChase for iPhone right now ready for the 1.2 update. http://www.johnnytwoshoes.com/posts/permalink/113 http://www.johnnytwoshoes.com/posts/permalink/113 Fri, 05 Jun 2009 09:41:53 -0700 This isn't one of our secret projects, just consider it a bonus! We're always playing our games and listening to feedback from all our players (including you). HighSpeedChase is really fun on the iPhone but it still hasn't hit its potential. We thought, lets dust it off and shine it a little more! Here's what you can look forward to in 1.2 Alternate control system (touch based, for when you want to play lying down) Slow down and dust when you hit the dirt Jumps Physics objects (barrels, fencing etc) More to be announced! Remember, tell your friends to buy HighSpeedChase It's only 59p/99c and directly helps JohnnyTwoShoes make more games that you love.

I've just written up some text that's going on the site and it should give players another insight into JTS. It's all coming together! http://www.johnnytwoshoes.com/posts/permalink/111 http://www.johnnytwoshoes.com/posts/permalink/111 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 08:39:24 -0700 We're not exactly at E3 but we've been excited to hear the announcements so far from Microsoft and we're looking forward to hearing what Nintendo and Sony are showing later today. You'll be pleased to hear that we're announcing The Heist 2 is now complete and the super mega final version will be with beta testers before release so we can make sure medals, scoring and other items are fixed. In the past we've had some trouble with medals not always working correctly, this is an awesome opportunity to get this right first time. We really want to thank beta testers for their outstanding efforts in testing this game, it's not been easy nor glamorous as it may seem. So, thanks a lot to all that helped, it really made a difference to the quality of the game. As soon as I know a release date, you'll know a release date!
