Shoecake Touch Beta Testing

This section of the site provides info, downloads, and updates for the games in development or testing.

Beta testing is invite only. In order to install any of the software on this page, you must have sent your UDID (for iPhone, iPod, or iPad) to me first. Every time a game is updated on this page, it will be signed with the latest UDID list, so you'll have to wait for the next release before you can get started. For more info on UDID's see the UDID Page!

Here are the latest Downloads:

DaisyWords: DaisyWords-v100.zip

This is the v1.0 release submitted to the App Store. Various changes, fixes and improvements were made, and the online High Score page will soon be reset to show only scores from v1.0 and up.

The older games will soon be updated for iPad:

Fruix: Fruix-v120.zip

This is v1.2 of Fruix with added OpenFeint support. The old online high scores feature is disabled for now. I may enable it again in future but lets see how OpenFeint is received. OpenFeint has global leaderboard features with maps etc., connects the game with your Twitter and Facebook friends. It's maybe not as small and sweet as my own high score pages but I think its worth the switch.

Local High Scores are still saved as before, but the score is also sent to OpenFeint if you're signed up to it.

Egglomania: Egglomania-v100.zip

This is the final (I hope) build ready for the app Store. Let me know if you find any major problems.

BombDunk: BombDunk-v100.zip

This is the version of BombDunk on thye App Store. There may be an update soon as I have a few things I'd like to tweak, so if you spot any bugs let me know.

PegIt 'Bronze': PegItBronze-v120.zip

This is a new 'Lite' version of PegIt (Hopefully the First App Store version) with 35 new tutorial and basic levels. The first 20 levels are simple tutorials with a slow difficulty curve, then 15 medium difficulty levels, and also 15 levels taken from 'PegIt Gold' that act like a 'Best Of' from the full game.

PegIt 'Gold': PegIt-v120.zip

A new version of PegIt (Latest App Store update.) The game was renamed 'PegIt Gold' in preparation for PegIt 'Bronze'. PegIt Gold now contains 180 levels in total. Some other tweaks and changes were made including display of PegIts/Jumps on select screen, some info tips for in-game buttons, a gold visual theme, and optimized for less battery use.

BoXiKoN: BoXiKoN-v110.zip

Latest version of BoXiKoN. The in-game buttons now require two taps, so its harder to Undo/Pause/Exit by mistake. No other major feature changes.

LinkLines: LinkLines-v100.zip

This is the version that is available on the App Store.

CornerChaos: CornerChaos-v110.zip

This is the new version of CornerChaos, Submitted to the App Store as update [v1.1 - August 6th] Anyone who was a Beta tester for BoXiKoN will be able to install this new version.

Unpack the zip, and you will see the provisioning file called "Shoecake.mobileprovision", and the App which will look like a regular Application on a Mac, but on Windows it will look like a folder called "GameName.app". (See image to the right.)

Open iTunes and go to the "Applications" section. Drag and Drop the provisioning file into the Applications section. Then Drag and Drop the App (or Folder on a PC) into iTunes and it should show up as an App with a default 'App' icon.

Sync your iPod/iPad/iPhone, and both the Provisioning Profile and the App should be copied to your device.

If you already had an earlier beta of a game installed, you should first Delete the old one from the 'Applications' section of iTunes, before dropping in the new one! You should also drop the new mobile provision file into iTunes and chose to 'Replace' the old provision.

Any Problems? Any Feedback?

Let me know if you have any feedback, or you have trouble with any of this.
