My 1st app store purchase will be from Hudson!!!

I will be doing a write up on an interview that I had the honor to do at Hudson Entertainment with "Master Higgins."

I am not allowed to say much now, but we got to talking about the upcoming iPhone launch in Japan and the debut of the AppStore on the 11th. Then we got to talking about Hudson's games and applications that would be available.

This is one that I feel compelled to share! Aqua Forest is basically a physics simulator that allows you to experiment with various elements, or create and solve puzzles. This is the perfect time killer!! Completely engrossing, but not something that you couldn't put away when you finally get the the head of a line, or finish up that business you were taking care of in some stall...

He broke out a dev video that puts the one below to shame...

VERY COOL STUFF!!!

Since this was up on the Hudson TV channel on YouTube, they said to go ahead and share it here.

Check it out:

That is neat! I couldn't really visualize it when you were telling me about it yesterday. I could see myself wasting a lot of time with that.

I can't wait, come on July!

Haha! Nice. Too bad they don't have a beer element. Put the heater right at the part you were "drinking at" at and it would look like you were chugging!

I'm getting this! I was trying to remember what game you were talking about pre-release. I can't wait to try it.

Yeah, I jumped the gun on annoucing this one....

It is awesome having somethign to pick up that you can put down again immediately, then pick up right where you left off...screwing around with elements just to see what will happen.

Edit: I played the puzzle tutorials while waiting for some take-out. These will definitely keep it interesting.

Rhino - on your recommendation, I purchased Aqua Forest and have it installed on my Touch. I haven't tried it yet, but probably will on lunch later this afternoon. It looks very cool.

I can't wait to hear your feedback...I was going to play it more this morning, but I ended up driving instead of riding to my meeting....

Lunch didn't really happen as I planned, but I'll have some feedback for you tomorrow I'm sure. I had a baseball double-header tonight, and am absolutely wiped right now.

I was using my computer to process topographic data last night and I had to wait for the program to finish before using other applications. So I picked my phone and started screwing with apps. I ended up spending about a half hour playing Aqua Forest.

I noticed last night that the front page has an audio toggle to turn on game sounds—my audio off as a default. It is the icon on the lower right.

At first I thought the puzzles are extremely easy, but they definitely get very challenging as you progress. There is also a small surprise for finishing each series of puzzles. I am only on the second series…and I am starting to slow way down in my progression.

It would be awesome if there was an update that allowed you to create, and share puzzles.

I did finally have a few minutes to try Aqua Forest out. I will say that at first I was not sure what I was doing in the "Free" mode, until I used the help functionality that's built in. After fiddling with that for a bit, I tried the first 8 puzzles or so. They definitely get progressively more difficult.

I can definitely see this being entertaining for Amy and I when traveling - which is good with a 7 hour each way flight coming up in August. I'm fidgety.

Now to decide on the next paid game download.
