I'm so happy that I found this studio so early, because you're so rare and unique and you listen to your fans and improve the game you released. You have a bright future ahead of you, it really makes me want to make games in a studio like yours :) Good luck, Hydrophobia was epic.
XD, the game is twice as good looking in every aspect, with almost twice the frame rate! WTF kind of an update does that?! Their is an insane amount of extra sick physics going on in this cheap xbla game! Good lord the lighting and water is so much better. I have yet to see a full game console or PC with that much fluid physics. This is a prime example of physics being used to enhance graphics. Wow I didn't realize this patch existed!
yes, thats a good idea. but the lenght of this... it makes me sad.
buuttt..... at least that 'never the same experience" (by the water) makes it very playable nearly.... unlimited time. (for me, cuz i cant get bored of HYDROPHOBIA :D)
I think there's only ONE problem with this game, although it's pretty HUGE.
No part 2.
It's so sad, because i waited 2 months to buy it, and when i did it, i was: wooOoow, this game is great, i've thought it's pretty bad. The story, the graphich, nearly everything is very-very nice. HydroEgine is.... unbelievable. It's so real...
i loved the game i just perchased & completed it today. i never played it when it first came out so i didn't experience the flaws in the first version but i was happy with the game cant wait for part 2 :)
Just for the fact you guys are smart enough to listen to feedback from the community and attempt to improve your product, I owe Hydrophobia a second look.
Hey! I bought this game today. Its my first game on Xbl and only I can tell now I m impressed !! U fixed hydrophobia ;) I ll wait for next part of it ;]
You make Manchester proud (and the gaming indsutry) by doing this! Other developers will take note from this, a very important move on your part indeed. Will definitely treat myself to this to play for New Year.
The game still is supposed to be composed of many future episodes, right?
And can we dream to this all these episodes in a disc someday? Maybe even a limited retail release edition? Or something to buy directly from your website?
I must admit I like when a company finally listens to their reviews and does something about it for the fans. Unlike Capcom and their betrayal of all their franchise and milking them to the point of needing to be rebooted! I actually might pick this up now, unfortunately I did hear a lot of bad things about it but after seeing that huge list of things changed and improved I'm actually really interested. Sort of reminds me of a Tomb Raider game and I've been craving to play a platformer
Amazing. I admit I thought the game originally looked extremely... rough, let's say. But seeing this huge list of improvements, from such a small developer, is quite fantastic. If my 360 wasn't sitting in pieces in a box right now, I'd go buy the darn game just to show my appreciation for a developer that CARES about their game, even after it's out and all is said and done.
It's so easy for major publishers to look at a game and say "Patch it?? No way, it sucks too much, let's just move on."
I am definitely buying it tomorrow. What a great way to demonstrate your commitment to the community. This effort raises the bar and solidifies your company among the gaming community. Kudos to you all.

Great work guys, I bought the game on release and I'm really looking forward to this update. I'll also spread the word to friends and co workers as you deserve a lot of credit for acting on the feedback from reviews etc!
@DannySilvester1986 Thanks for your support - we're really overwhelmed with the response, it's making us feel all Christmassy. Hope you enjoy the updates :)
@Ve3troGamesMedia Much appreciated, we are committed to the philosophy of a two way relationship between community and developer, so we're really excited about all the positive feedback. It's great to see people speaking out in support :) Hope you enjoy the update
It is nice to see that a developer actually taking the time to listen to community feedback. We really enjoyed our time with Hydrophobia when it first came out, and are really looking forward to the title update!
@thenewbreview Thanks guys, hope you enjoy the update. We've been blown away from the response really, really great to see. It really is the season of goodwill!
Finally got around to finishing the game this weekend (after grabbing it on launch) and pretty excited to do a second run after this update comes. The changelist seems quite impressive. Really looking forward to future announcements and stuff.

I really just wish this game would come to PC/Steam and PS3. By releasing on one console, you're just limiting the amount of potential customers. :(
