Edge is BACK!

One of my all time favorite iPhone games is back online again!

Those of you that listen to our podcast may remember me talking about the bogus copyright infringement case that pulled Edge from the app store a couple months back. It was pretty much completely BS, and I was quite worried to think that such a fantastic game wouldn’t see the light of day again. Luckily, the developer emailed today to inform me that the game is back in the US app store again! Check out his email below for links and details on the legal drama:

During the last 2 months EDGE was not available on the app store in the United Stated, and in the United Kingdom

The reason can be found here.

During the last days, we received an extraordinary support from the developer community, from small indies like us, to EA! They brought a lot of stuff to the surface, and even if we are still really disappointed by the IGDA, we see no reason to keep the game out of the store any longer. Check out the full story.

We are still independent (2 people there), we did not sign any deal with anyone, and I am proud to announce that EDGE is available again!

I’m very happy it’s back on the store, as Edge remains in my top 3 iPhone games of all time. Check out our review if you need convincing.

Edge - $4.99

Did they give Langdell his payoff? I hope not. All it takes is one company to actually take it to court and this scumbag will lose his gravy train.
