PetBugs - New Features in v1.1.1 release
- Pet and feed your own creations as they scuttle around within the Pet Bugs environment. Create your own unique bug graphics on a PC or Mac using whatever drawing package you have to hand, then import them onto your iPhone as you would a photograph. The graphics will then be accessible from within the Pet Bugs application.
- Choose your own background image from your photo collection. Have the bugs scurry over your own ground textures, or your own face if you like.
- Mail a screenshot of your creations to me and I'll post the best ones on this website.

PetBugs - Now Available To Download
Pet Bugs is now available for purchase on the iPhone App Store.
Instantly getting 5 star reviews in the US iTunes Store on its first day of release. Great Stuff! - glad my hard work is appreciated.
This review was particularly good!
"This app is so much fun. Trust me. THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST INTERACTIVE APPS IN THE STORE. You are able to customize EVERYTHING. From like 20 different real looking backgrounds, to the bugs, decorating your settings (leaves, logs, etc...) , you can name your bugs, pet your bugs, tickle, feed the bugs, put them to sleep AND EVEN SQUASH THE BUGS! But if you squash them they wont come back to life until you restart the app (which is kinda cool). I'm a 23 yr old guy and this app has entertained the heck outta me. I also have a girlfriend who is absolutely terrified of bugs and this will be great to screw with her because EVERYTHING LOOKS AND MOVES SO REAL. Wow i feel like a little kid, lol. But this is a really neat app you should try out. Hell, i woulda paid more if i knew it would be this cool. I'm gonna go mess with my women with this app, im pumped."
"Land Version Of Koi Pond, Just as entertaining, no beautiful water effects but more customization. Well worth the buck!"
"I was going to write a good review in the itunes application site for your bug application as I think there has been alot of work to get it as far as it has, and the only app I know that let's you know how to design it to your own liking, I love it, even though I am not a bug person...but my grandson''s also love to swash them. but on the itunes store, it says can't write review, unless i have downloaded it... I have had it since it first came out, and think maybe there is a glitch as it won't let me write a good review, as I thought you deserved it...besides that I think it great, great job.."
I feel a warm glow. ;o)
PetBugs - Not long now!
The Pet Bugs app has been submitted to the App Store. Not sure how long the Apple acceptance process will take, but Pet Bugs should hopefully be in the App Store within a week or two.
