The new apps were up a few minutes ago via that link, but are now down. Yesterday's apps are back. Probably just a glitch. I had fruit ninja in my cart.

Still works on mine - perhaps try refreshing? Also - even if the apps don't show up on the page, they are still marked down to $0.10 (i've already purchased the ones I wanted to get).

Well, refreshing didn't work, but I was able to buy Fruit Ninja for $0.10 by searching for it, as you suggested.

Looks like a lot of these apps use a special pen. Anyone know what pen works best?

 

[gorcorps]

flick golf is a good casual game, I'd recommend it

for drawing apps i think any capacitive touch pen should work. or, you can use a hot dog

Swiftkey is, for me, the best Android keyboard out there. Worth its full price, but if you can get it for a dime, do not hesitate.

Wife and granddaughter liked the Fruit Ninja at D&B.
Put it on my phone and killed volume.
No wife in bed last night.
Now she wants a phone of her own that supports it, so she can play the game.

So when does it update?

Today's apps are up:

TETRIS ®
Blue Skies Donation Wallpaper
Homerun Battle 3D
Reckless Getaway
Talking Tom Cat 2
Kids Learn to Read (Preschool)
ADWLauncher EX
Space Physics
Toki Tori
Can Knockdown 2

ADWLauncher EX is the best paid launcher out there. I've always stayed away from it because the free version was too limited to get a good idea of what it was capable of, but now I can see it's excellent. I used GO Launcher before this which is the best FREE launcher I've used, but 0.10 is pretty much free so I'll take ADW any day of the week now.

Can Knockdown 2 and Homerun Battle 3D are also good time wasters.

 

[Chriscross3234]

Yes, good call on the paid version of ADWLauncher!

For anybody having the "incompatible with your device" problem, if you've made changes to your LCD Density in build.prop or with some app, that will cause the error. Try changing the LCD value back to stock for your device. Alternatively, you can revert back to the old version of the market and that doesn't check LCD settings. If you haven't changed the density then I'm not sure what the problem is.

I recently got Sentinel 3 and Jelly Defense off Amazon. Both are very good tower defense games, probably my favorites so far (well, other than the brilliant Plants v. Zombies). Sentinel 3 and Jelly Defense are totally different, however. Sentinel 3 has a sci-fi theme and some "commander" elements, and while the graphics are good, they are really not optimized for phones - the screen is just too small for everything that's going on. Jelly Defense is a cartoon-style tower defense game that would even be fine for kids, and the graphics look fantastic on a phone - partly because there's a lot less going on. Of the two, I slightly prefer Sentinel 3, as it has slightly deeper gameplay elements, but Jelly Defense is super-stylish, and for 10 cents, it's worth checking out.

Yes, I've been unable to purchase an app for the last couple hours.

Problems here, too, at 11:25am Central time.

 

[gorcorps]

I got an "error processing purchase" pop up, but then it downloads anyway... so it might have gone through anyway.

 

[tranceport]

It started working for me.

 

[senseamp]

So it asks me to send it to device. If I send it to one device now, I can still get it on another device later, right?
