Small #android update
16.08.2010 - Comments Off
We just uploaded a small update for the Android version. The game controls are slightly tweaked on some faster devices, and we finally locked the volume-buttons to only control the media-volume while the game is running.. so no more changing the ringer volume by accident.
v3.1.0 finally for #Android !

We just uploaded the new version for Android devices, the iPhone version will follow a little later, the new update brings another level to fly in and many little changes and improvements. It’s taken much longer to get this update out, basically we had a hard time getting level three to look and play the way we wanted.
Here is the full list of new stuff, and as mentioned, this is also coming to iPhone soon!
- Added the Techno World
- World-selection map, pick your fly zone!
- Helicopters now also give flyby points, and a nice sound ![]()
- fixed the bonus-zone buildings (sometimes they looked wrong)
- Scores of 1000 and up will get uploaded (no need to beat your own best)
- add various special effects left and right
- the upgradable planes have their own special abilities! so it’s worth trying them all ![]()
- Android: Gameplay fix for fast devices, the plane is more controllable now
- Android: Install to SD added
Still flying high

It’s been some time since we talked about the next update for Mini Plane, and that’s because the direction we were going with the “bee world” just wasn’t really what we were hoping for. After some more thinking and designing we came up with a new world to add to the game, much more inline with the rest of the worlds we already had.
There have also been some more tweaks towards faster Android devices, because the touch-controls just didn’t feel correct (we designed the game for the older phones with apparently slower input handling) and that will all be in the next update and new Lite version. It will also include some speed-enhancements that bring the framerate slightly higher on the slower phones, making it a smoother game to enjoy.
Right now we are doing some fine tuning and checking if we can do some additional new features before releasing the next version, but it is coming soon!
fix Nexus One and HTC Desire

Since we just received a Nexus One to play with, we noticed Mini Plane is running at lightning speeds and is simply unplayable! So for all those new and fast Android devices we are now pushing an update to fix the speed issues.
This update already contains some of the new stuff we are working on, but not the new world just yet
So you get to enjoy a sweet update while waiting for the full v3.1 release!
Of course all you iPhone/iPod Touch users don’t fear: the same goodies are coming your way when we release v3.1 for both platforms!
version 3.1 preview
28.04.2010 - Comments Off
Work has started on the next update for Mini Plane. This update will bring in a new world to fly in, and a world selection map that allows you to select the world you want to fly in. The new world is titled “Beehive” and you can get your sneak preview by looking at the screenshots below, with some nice Bee’s buzzing around, and moving scenery making it much harder to avoid! On top of all that we also did many small enhanced on the graphics and effects on screen.. so it will be a worthy update again!
As the map screen already shows, there will be more worlds added in following updates and this Beehive world is only the start of things to come.
Version 3.1 is planned for release within two weeks time, with both Android and iPhone users receiving the update.
