Location: Lake City, Colorado, USA | You might want to word the accompanying hype paragraph in a manner that informs people that you are, in fact, aware that watermelons don't grow on trees, and that that is part of what makes this game a more unique and fun experience, or something. It sounds like a dumb issue, but there are a great many people out there that are pompous enough to not be able to enjoy a game with such a drastic "flaw" unless you tell them that it's "okay." | | Re: Suggestion :: Sep 10, 2008 @ 4:44pm |

People are incredibly strange, 'eh? My first review on the App Store was a 1-star complaining the watermelons don't grow on trees. I don't believe the person played the game.
I shall add a sentence the the effect of
"The developer is aware that watermelons do not traditionally grow on trees." | | Re: Suggestion :: Sep 10, 2008 @ 9:24pm |

That's also been the response from most of the people I introduced the game to. I guess people are more concerned about botanical correctness then one might think.
And as of now three of your 4 reviews are related to this very, uh, important matter.post updated on Sep 10, 2008 @ 9:32pm | | Re: Suggestion :: Sep 10, 2008 @ 10:31pm |

The melons are actually symbolic, they represent the people of sweden.
And the game is impossible to win, theres only one way it can end - all melons smashed.
