Man, I hope there are no nasty bugs lurking in there.<\/p>\n <p>Getting the game ready for &#8220;prime time&#8221; took a lot of work because you have to go back and fix all those things that you let slide: placeholder sounds, sloppy GUI layout, and &#8220;mostly-working&#8221; code. But now it&#8217;s done! (mostly).<\/p>\n <p>I&#8217;m going to look into fixing\/modifying code to work well on tablets for the Google and Apple stores, but I don&#8217;t think that will get done before the end of October. Right now the game works and is playable on a Nexus 7 but some parts are not-quite-working with the touch screen.<\/p>\n <p><a title=\"Ludum Dare Entry\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/october-challenge-2012\/?action=preview&amp;uid=11739\">View the entry here.<\/a><\/p>","time":"October 26th, 2012 6:02 pm","title":"Ethereal Isles Live.
