Newsfeed for Byte Manufacturing and the Green Thumb Game http://www.bytemfg.com/ Sun, 07 Nov 2010 20:46:25 -0700 Sun, 07 Nov 2010 20:46:25 -0700 The Garden is just filling up with a wonderful bounty of applications. We had to open an additional plot of land on the iPad. We're pleased to announce that the iPad version of GreenThumb, which we're calling GreenThumbHD, has been released and is now available in the App Store. There's a number of exciting changes and updates to this version: OpenFeint Leaderboards, Achievements and Forums to let you track your progress as compared to the rest of the Gardeners across the land. Updated graphics, making this the most visually gorgeous application we've released. All of the Gardens are available for you to play immediately, so if you get stuck on one there's plenty of more to play through. http://www.bytemfg.com/ 20101107 Sun, 07 Nov 2010 20:46:25 -0700 You guys are great! We've had an awesome response to Green Thumb, thanks a lot to you! We've been busy answering questions and dusting off the tractors for the harvest, but we've been able to get the number one requested feature into a 1.1 Release. Undo is here and available for all your gaming needs. Yah! There's a new button in the bottom middle of the screen that will take you back a move. You can go back all the way to the beginning of the game if you want (but the reset button the right is still there and probably simpler). We also got a slightly changed icon. Some people suggested that perhaps there should be some green in the icon. Big shout out to Mr. Stroop for the explanation on that. Some of you are asking if the game is actually solvable. We assure you that many, many nights have been spent devising these puzzles and they can be solved. ;) http://www.bytemfg.com/ 1102346 Tue, 14 Jul 2009 20:46:25 -0700 Today we are excited to announce that Green Thumb is now available for download on the iPhone AppStore. It's an approachable puzzle game with over sixty different Gardens and three difficulty levels in a fun flower-based theme. There is a quick tutorial to start the game off and show you how to play. The rules are very simple to learn, but there are a wide variety of Gardens that will challenge you with short logic puzzles and longer strategic battles. We've been working on this project for quite a while and it's great to finally get it out the door. We hope that you'll have as much fun playing it as we did building it. Also a big shout out to our early beta testers who had some great suggestions about improving the game. Thanks! http://www.bytemfg.com/ 1102345 Tue, 9 Jun 2009 16:41:56 -0700
