B.I.T.S Pinball Candiballs is up on the App Store. Check out our game’s product page for more details or go directly to the store.

We pulled this together in an extremely short amount of time (even shorter if you consider we have a day jobs).

I’m extremely grateful to my wife who somehow found the time and energy for many nights after we put our son to bed to come up with a compelling holiday rendition of B.I.T.S Pinball.

I’ve also created a new website. I’m releasing this as both a paid $.99 version and a free version that has ads (not while playing the game :) ). Candiballs!!

The last couple of weeks have been great! Shortly after releasing B.I.T.S on Oct 6th 2009 we were featured by Apple. B.I.T.S is still in the New and Noteworthy (in Games) and last week we were in the “Hot New Games” section on the iPhone App Store.

We’re stoked to say the least.

Additionally, we just submitted an update for B.I.T.S Pinball to Apple that addresses a number of things:

- We’ve had some complaints about the ball being to fast and uncontrollable so we’ve toned it down a little and made the game way more playable/approachable.

- We’ve made the paddles a little longer.

This will bump B.I.T.S Pinball up to version 1.1. We’re not done yet! We have more great things coming in our next release in a few weeks.
