Just to get the question in before anybody else asks ;) :

Presumably, after Insaniquarium and Bookworm are underway in our Beta area, you shall be moving on to PopCaps new \'Candy Train\' (just gone into Beta at Popcap.com for those who don\'t know)?

In the same way, presumably you won\'t be doing \'Word Shark\', as you have T-Blaster already? ;)

Yup :)
(I\'ve not decided who\'ll be doing it yet, though!)

Good game, isn\'t it!

Howard.

Congratulations David, you are the first with this question. But I played this game the whole afternonn, so I think I\'m the real winner because I had fun while you were posting :D.

I hope this will the next project, because I realy love this game. Only Insansarium has an equal fun factor ;) (this was a secret signal to you, Howard :P, hope you put all beside an start programming today LOL).

Someone was always going to ask the question, so why not me?? ;)

It is a nice fun little game, more to it than \'Hot Lines\', so I\'m also looking forward to it on the Palm :)

I just played candy train last night, I really like this game, it is fun and challenging. I can\'t wait until the beta of it is out, along with Book Worm. But, I was also wondering, (this was addressed earlier) if you were going to make Word Shark. It is a lot like T-Blaster, but I think both are fun and it would be fun to see both. One reason to make Word Shark is that, maybe T-Blaster doesn\'t appeal to be cool to someone, but Word Shark would, I don\'t know, but I would still like you to make it.

So Holger, how\'s the \'Diplomarbeit\' coming along - you won\'t get it finished if you play games all afternoon :PThis is unfair, but I hope within the next days (OK I lost half a day playing candy train :( (making sad face) ;)
Someone was always going to ask the question, so why not me?? ;)Because I wanted to be the first asking, but this game was so great, that I played much longer than planed ;) :P

But next time I will try harder to be the first making such an good and intelligent game suggestion :D

I have also just though of another reason why Word Shark should be made into a game. It should be made into a game because most beta testers, or anyone htat has bought from astraware, all got it for free. So, if you make it a game, you probably make more money off of it.

Any chance of a PPC version in the distant future? I know it would be posted in the multi-platform testing area if it was in the works for the near future ;).
