Just Getting Started!

Hey everyone, this is our first post for TRUESoft Entertainment's news blog. I would like to start out by saying that our first original title, Blitz Blok has hit the App Store, and avaiable for both the iPhone and iPod Touch!

The screenshot to the left is a slightly older version of what it looked like just before the release. We have changed background scheme a little, and added some pretty interesting effects!

For those who do not know, the goal of the game is to pop the Bloks (the squares) by tapping on them as they fall from the top of the screen before they hit the bottom for points. There are seven different types of Bloks, all with different colors, point values, drop rates, and speed variations! Each popped Blok will yield points to the player, and fills the player's red progress gauge to the right. Once the gauge is filled, the game's difficulty rises making Bloks fall more frequently, more types to appear, power-ups (known as Blitzens from now on), and more surprises!

If a Blok reaches the bottom, the green Life Support gauge on the right will deplete. As you can see, the red gauge in the screenshot was just about completely depleted. Once the Life Support gauge is completely depleted, it's Game Over!

The game currently supports an internal highscore system, but a worldwide online leaderboard will be coming in future updates, so we will keep you posted when they are available!

Blitz Blok ($1.99 USD), and Blitz Blok Lite (free) are currently available on iTunes or via the iPhone or iPod Touch's App Store app. I would also like to mention that we are making regular updates to improve the game. The next update will not be for a few weeks due to the amount of features we are trying to cram into them, however, it is subject to be broken down into a series of smaller updates.

Also, be sure to upgrade your devices to iPhone OS 3.0 as soon as it is available this summer! There are a bunch of new exciting features that come with it which will take your Blitz Blok experience to a whole new level!
