UPDATE: Ant Raid gets a weekend sale! Between this week's Thursday and Sunday (Sep 29th to Oct 2nd), Ant Raid is available for $0.99 instead of the default price of $2.99.

This sale campaign celebrates the version 1.2.0, an update that features a localization support for English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Finnish and Hungary - among other cool new improvements.

Hi there, fellow gamers!

We, as in Prank Ltd, wanted to share you some information of our first original iPad title. Ant Raid combines action, arcade and strategy, and is available now for $2.99 in App Store! The setting is easy-going "tongue-in-cheek" horror.

A glimpse of Ant Raid's features:

* Designed for iPad from the get-go. In other words: not a conversion.
* Easy-to-grasp one finger controls.
* Survival mode with four dynamic and endless levels, connected to Game Center Leaderboards.
* Story mode with 100 playable levels.

Now that we've SHOWN a sneak peek of what Ant Raid looks like, we figured we should let you HEAR it as well. So here's "Mushroom Jive", one of the many original in-game songs of Ant Raid:

(for best audio quality, switch to "720p" from the bottom-right corner)

If you guys and girls like what you're hearing, let us know and we might just release the entire soundtrack! Free of charge, of course

Here's a quick look at a few of the in-game enemies of Ant Raid. As you can see, it's horrible what a small breath of insecticide can do to snails, bees, beetles and worms!

As you've seen in one of the screenshots, Ant Raid features comic style sequences. Since a picture can tell more than a 1000 words, but a VIDEO can tell more than a 1000 pictures, here's one of the cutscene clips of Ant Raid.

Enjoy!

We aren't ready to reveal the exact price just yet, but rest assured it won't be expensive. We'll be releasing gameplay footage very soon, so stay tuned!

Thank you guys for offering your help! Primarily we'll be reserving the codes for reviewers and other members of press, and you can get them by contacting us at press ( at ) prankentertainment ( dot ) com. We will send out the codes once the game is released. In case some "extra" codes will be left (as we only have the standard amount of 50 codes), we'll let you know!

No, you got it all wrong... He's called Yorma

Yeah, that would be enough to appease George Lucas

We certainly hope so!

The moment of showing an actual gameplay clip of Ant Raid is just around the corner!

To ease the pain of waiting, feel free to feast on yet another original in-game track: Ant-O-Calypse Now!

Since we've been promising to deliver a gameplay clip for so long, but don't want to release the official gameplay trailer just yet, we thought we should give you guys something to help understand how the game is played.

So please find below a short gameplay clip. It was recorded with a standard handheld camera, which means the colors are off and the picture is blurry, so the video doesn't bring justice to the graphics. But still, it gives a nice demonstration how the game is played.

Hope you like it!
