Well I'm certainly feeling the love from all the positive feedback, so thanks everyone for your support.

Here's some more art for the game, starting with the 'complete' character animation for in-game:

The red dude in flight:

NOTE: the animation program can't handle the partial transparent pixels which is what that crap around the image is from...

Here's the incomplete image of the background:

The area with grass and the flower is the complete part. The game already has parallax background scrolling, so the rocks are the closest layer, the blue clouds are the furthest layer and another layer will go inbetween.

The closest background layer is complete (might undergo a few more touch ups later, colour correction ect.).

Well I stumbled across a video camera and so decided to show a little of the gameplay, sorry for the horrible video quality. I can't run the game on the simulators anymore. I'm going to look for a work around and see if I can get a better quality video up soon.

Actually it's an iPod touch because I'm too poor to afford an iPhone. :P

But it is indeed an iPhone game. Any and all suggestions on items, etc. are welcome. I already have a number of ideas so it will be interesting to hear what ideas others come up with.

Some nice suggestions so far, thanks.

I decided I liked the grub character so here's some elysian shadow "fan-art" I suppose:
