Long time no hear

Was kinda quiet here over the last couple of months, right? Well that was mainly because I was working on some really interesting projects — mainly iPhone apps — that kept me from publishing new stuff. And there is one more thing…

tap tap tap

Where ToOne of the most exciting projects was - and still is - working with Sophia and John from tap tap tap on their amazing iPhone apps such as Where To?, Tipulator or Groceries. If you haven’t already, make sure you check em out.

Mindmeister

Where ToFurthermore I assisted my friends Michael and Till from Mindmeister with preparing the next big release of their collaborative online mind mapping tool. I’ve seen the preview and I can tell there are some really exciting new features to be announced :)

One more thing

Where ToBut there is one more thing I’d like to talk about: a secret project I’ve been working on over the last couple of months. Hm… it’s actually not a secret anymore, since I’ve already posted some teasers on my flickr stream, right? Well so I guess it’s okay to officially let you know that I’ve been working on a new iPhone game. It’s currently being reviewed by Apple and I’m confident that it will be ready to hit the App Store sometime next week. So stay tuned…

Update

Make sure you also check out the official Dashball wallpaper set.

Das klingt doch alles extrem spannend und lustig! Konntet Ihr denn das Namensproblem lösen?

Oliver

Na endlich mal wieder was neues von dir!

Sehr interessante Projekte. Besonders gespannt bin ich auf Aball. Oder heißt es nun anders ;)? Gibt es was neues bei MacHeist? Version 3 steht ja nun langsam an, nachdem auf der Seite seit Ewigkeiten nichts passiert ist.

Lars

Mindmaping website looks really interesting. What is that game about ? :)

Hast hier auch mal einen richtig chiquen blog auf die Beine gestellt! Ist hier aber tatsächlich etwas ruhig um Dich. Bin mal gespannt auf Deine neusten Tüfteleien, ich werd mich jetzt hier noch etwas umschauen. Besten Gruß aus Deutschland

Dann brauch ich ja nur noch ein iPhone ;)

Andreas Dantz

I bought tipulator and I have to say it has become a favorite iphone app of mine because of it's beautiful interface! :)

Pam

They looks really interesting. Are they taking up all your time. Nice to see your still around :-)

Alan Tucker

Love updates from this blog. I know they're always going to be good ones! Looking forward to seeing your game in the App Store!

A long time it has been! When I get an email notification, I always immediately head on over to see what's going on. I've seen a few of your posts elsewhere, and wondered if you'd ever be back. Glad you're back and with some interesting stuff. Mindmeister seems pretty interesting. I'll give it a demo sometime over the weekend. With the iPhone game, since ABalls was taken, what name did you decide to go with?

Rob C

Ja, dann werde ich mir noch ein iphone zulegen müssen.

Badratgeber

Ja er lebt noch!!! Und das ist gut so!!! Da werd ich ja dann doch ganz schnell über das neue Game stolpern. Die Scrennshots sind ja in jedem Fall schon mal optische Leckerbissen.

Endlich mal ein Mindmap-Online-Programm. Weiter so.

Hallo Wolfgang, ich habe mich diese Woche beim Besuch Deiner Seite gefragt, was es neues bei Dir gibt. Und gestern schreibst Du einen neuen Artikel. Das war wohl Gedankenübertragung ;-)

apart-smart

Mein Englisch ist etwas dürftig, darum habe ich die Seite vom Mr. Google übersetzen lassen. Wobei "taptaptap" in "Leitungswasser Leitungswasser Leitungswasser" übersetzt worden. Sagt bloß noch das Ihr auch noch klempnert!? ;)

sicher-Heizen

Wurde auch ein wenig Zeit mal ein Lebenszeichen abzugeben. Ich habe mir schon Sorgen gemacht.

Energie-Ratgeber

They looks really interesting. :-)

Ester

Sieht gut aus! Mach weiter so. Dein Grafiken sind klasse.

Design

Jetzt steht es fest. Mein nächstes Handy ist ein iPhone. :-))

Badexperte

Haha, so "trinkwasser trinkwasser trinkwasser" is definitely a creative translation of tap tap tap :) And also thanks for your positive feedback on Mindmeister — but keep in mind, the version currently available at mindmeister.com is still the "old" version. You may sign up to their newsletter or RSS feed to get notified when they will release the new one :) As for the game: yeah that naming issues was obviously tough luck. But in the end we came up with a new name. Actually imo a much better one than "Aball". It's now called "Dashball". And no worries — I'll post more details on the game in the next couple of days. So stay tuned.

Wolfgang

Looking really good, im looking foreward to you releasing Dashball, please post some screenshots for us

Adthello

Wow you've been working on lots of interesting things; btw, improving iPhone GPS with point of interest is definitely a very good idea :).

Dll

about iPhone apps : cheap and usefull, well done !

Besides, the name ABall just gives off a sort of not so good familiarization to the term AHole! Hehe, Know what I mean? =) Rob.

soon i will get one iphone and gonna use thes apps

Otel Rehberi

btw they looks very interesting aha gonna try soon

Check out the new "Dashball teaser":http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynKo385s_RE – it contains exclusive in game footage. Enjoy :)

Wolfgang Bartelme

I looks like an action game coupled along with a thinking one as well. It looks great!!! Now, once you make one for the Samsung Instinct, consider it bought! Question: What is the likely-hood of you creating _emphasis_Racing Game_emphasis_??? That I would LOVE to see! R.

Rob C

At last! I was wondering if you were lost somwhere in the Internet ;) As a iPhone user I am looking forward to your game for that phone, I am sure It will have the same high quality as everything else you do!

robakdesign.com

nice to hear you again. For the first in my life i've got 3 unread post o your blog ^^

sitxpress

I've been using Mindmeister at an on and off base since its very first inception. Feels great that this absolutely stunning application continues to evolve. I haven't even noticed that you were on of the contributors until now but then again, this hints on the origin of the sheer visual quality of the interface.

Natalya

I'm guilty of the same thing with a lack of posts. One thing that can make for a quick post is any really good new sites that you might have found. I'm sure most of your readers would be interested in anything that you find thats new.

Dave

Das ist das größte am IPhone - die Aplikationen.

IPhone Apps, das hört sich gut an. Ich hoffe du lässt bald mal was schönes blicken ... :-) Mfg

Navigationssysteme

The iPhone is incredible, BUT their appz arnt all that good, and custom apps are generally better than Apples apps, dont really understand that but keep up with quality applications!!

Na endlich mal wieder was neues von dir! Habe schon so lange drauf gewartet und hat sich auch mal weider gelohnt. Weiter so Viele Grüße aus Hürth bei Köln www.lemaire-immobilien.de

Those iPhone apps were well worth the time not blogging, and as for mindmeister, that's such a cool one it would almost be rude not to use it!

Andrew Burnett

O-oo!!! good at last!!

I can't wait to get my dirty hands on those iPhone apps! Looks like it's been well worth the wait.

Ist das bewusste Absicht, oder Sch*-Drauf-Mentalität, Wolfgang, dass die Kommentierer so komische Namen haben?

this is such a good job thanks to editor

celil

Having tried out your ITouch game I have to say I am quite impressed. Its rare to get a piece of preofessional work on Apple for free! Most of the Apps are very poor and badly put together, but yours makes a refreshing change. Keep up the good work.

Good game, it will not be boring ;-)

Good to see you back blogging, but at least we can see you have been quite busy in the meanwhile. Thanks for sharing your work with us.
