Sheeple is today’s free application on FreeAppADay.com! Sheeple is currently ranked #90 out of all of the free applications in the App Store and keeps climbing. Please help us get it into the top 50 by pass around the word and have everyone you know download Sheeple! There is also a great new level pack called “Episode 2″ for anyone that already own Sheeple and want a new challenge. We are planning on adding a bunch of new levels to Episode 2 shortly.

Also, version 1.5.1 of Sheeple has been “In Review” since Monday and should be approved today or tomorrow. This update includes a bug fix for the level selection screen when using the game in left landscape orientation (home button on the left) and also fixes an issue with the level selection screen causing a crash on the iPad.

The latest update for Sheeple has been released and you can see screenshots and more info here!

- All new graphics!
- All new scoring system!
- New Episode 2 level pack (new gameplay elements)
- In App Purchases
- Support left & right landscape orientation
- Upgraded to OpenFeint 2.4.5
- Bug fixes
- Sheeple 1.5 requires iPhone OS 3.x+

We haven’t forgotten about Sheeple HD and really appreciate everyone that has purchased it so far! If you missed the news we just submitted a new massive update to the iPhone version of Sheeple, and guess what? Well, we are planning on a similar update for Sheeple HD!

* All new graphics
* New levels
* Bug fixes

The iPad is such a great platform for Sheeple, since the increased screen resolution allows for some really challenging puzzles. We will be releasing some new levels for Sheeple HD with this upcoming update and they will be really difficult, so get ready!

We have been keeping things quite the past few weeks, but we have just finished and submitted a massive update to Sheeple for the iPhone/iPod touch! This update includes all new graphics, a new level pack called “Episode 2″, in app purchases, an all new scoring system, and lots more.

Every single screen has been redesigned and we think that you will love the new graphics and also the changes to the core gameplay. The new scoring system is much easier to understand, while continuing to offer a lot of replay value.

Episode 2 is an in app purchase that includes 20 new levels with a new gamplay twist, different colored Sheeple and stars! This new gameplay mode is actually a ton of fun and really challenges you. We will be adding more levels to episode 2 shortly! The update does requires iPhone OS 3.0 as a minimum OS requirement now that we offer in app purchases. We expect to have this new version approved in the next week, so stay tuned. Here are a few screen shots to get things started.

(Episode 2)

We are close to releasing the details on the project that we have in development currently! This is an exciting project and we will start to leak some information very soon. Along with this new project, we will also be offering a new developer service, so a lot of developments in TF world!

Also, I am wanting some feedback to see if users want another update for Sheeple?! I am thinking a new level pack with some new gameplay elements. Let me hear what you think!

I want to send a shout out to Jedidiah Laudenslayer who added Sheeple to the “More Games” section in Artifice and ABC123. ABC123 is scheduled to be the OpenFeint free game of the day on March 24 (http://freegameoftheday.com). Artifice is scheduled to be the free app of the day on http://freeappaday.com on April 6th. We appreciate Jed including Sheeple in his list of more games!

I also started up another website last month that is dedicated to indie iPhone game developers: http://indieappolis.com. There will be a different indie interview every day this week and they are worth reading.

This has been a busy week for us, but Sheeple 1.4 and Sheeple Lite have both been approved and are available now! Please RT and spread the word.

Sheeple 1.4
Sheeple Lite

Sheeple Lite includes 10 select levels, but does not include stats. If you like the 10 levels in the Lite version, then you will love the full game that comes with 100 levels, leaderboards, achievements, and friend challenges!

We also started up development on Sheeple 2. There are some very exciting new features and wait until you see what we have come up with for level packs!

We have submitted both an upgrade for Sheeple, which includes OpenFeint 2.4.2 and also a brand new Lite version of Sheeple! The lite version has 10 select levels from the full game, but does not include OpenFeint integration. Both should be released any day now! Please stay tuned and we should also have more news about our next title in the next week or two.

If you have any suggestions that you think would make Sheeple better, please let us know!

Thanks for everyone that downloaded Sheeple over the weekend! We had more downloads that we were ever expecting.

We had put episode 4 on hold to allow enough time for everyone to have a chance to take a look at episode 3, but now episode 4 has been submitted to Apple. I’m told that things are going to get very busy with a lot of holiday related submissions, but this version should be out in plenty of time.

We will be running a sale on Thanksgiving day, so check back for more information.
