Several users have reported having problems saving after upgrading their game to 1.2.0. If you fall in this group, please read below:
An uninstall/reinstall of the game is reported by others to fix the issue.
Uninstalling/reinstalling will not cause your progress to be lost, provided that you have an SD card installed. You can verify the backup file, robo_defense_full.bak, is present on the SD card for extra caution.
Uninstalling/reinstalling will not charge again you for the game - the purchase is tied to your user id.
We think that the issue may be a side-effect of turning off copy-protection for the full version of the game in 1.2.0. We have wanted to do this for a while because it reduces the download size and makes the game compatible with more phones. The market tools have historically not allowed protection to be disabled; recently they changed the tool to allow it. We don't plan on turning copy-protection on again (ever) so this should be a one-time issue.

I can confirm that the fix above works - I had teh same problem after ugprading and uninstalling and re-installing fixed the save error problem for me.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for update and the addictive game!
I had the same problem and fixed it by reinstalling it too.
ReplyDeleteIt seems that you get more points by playing the VR levels than the Basic level. I found that VR A0003 is the same as the basic level, so you can earn more points by playing that instead.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteI'd like to purchase the full version. How do I do that?
Hi,
ReplyDeleteWe dont have access to paid apps in ireland - any chance of putting it on slideme please??
Hi!
ReplyDeleteIncredibly addicting and well-done game you developed!
But, since I am located outside of the USA, I can't buy the full version anywhere. Couldn't you sell robodefense on your website via paypal, too? Or maybe slideME.org? I bet I am not the only international potential client....
Hi
ReplyDeleteI to love your game and not able to purchase via android market. Can you able us to purchase the game by other means?
Please respond
Absolutely my favorite app so far. Great job Lupis!
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know if it's possible to start over? I achieved every award, now I want to try again but focus on different types of builds. I don't want to re-buy the game...can I just delete the backup and then reinstall?
Is there any way to contact Lupis Labs directly?
ReplyDeleteI haven't found one.
ReplyDeleteI had the same problem, fixed the same way. I'm pretty sure, it worked after the update and stopped working after PC-sync (it was a first time sync).
ReplyDeleteI purchased this game a few months ago and love it. I just wanted to let the developer know. It really is a fantastic game.
ReplyDeleteThis is by far one of the best games offered in the Android Market. Just wrote an overall review and rating for Robo Defense here: http://bestandroidappsreview.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteLove the game very addicting. I do have some feature request if possible for the future.
ReplyDelete1. Leader board
2. More in-game power ups
3. More use of air, once i started using mazes for ground units, they are not really a challenge. Air is still a challenge, but not many waves of air arrive.
4. Higher achievements, like lvl 100 basic, etc.
I have one feature request: Allow the backlight to time out once the level is complete. I accidentally left a level running and it finished and then kept my backlight on for an hour.
ReplyDeleteLove your game. It's super addictive and worth every penny worth.
ReplyDeleteWent through hours of rooting and using Market Enabler just to gain access to your game.
I'll soon be done with it though, I'd love more features :-)
Anyone know how to contact the developer? I've emailed but haven't heard back. I'd like to talk to him about a partnership with my company. We make an android device.
ReplyDeletei don't really get it... how i must reinstall this game?
ReplyDeleteYou can delete the program from your phone, and the re-download it from the market. If you bought it, it will let you download it again unlimited times.
ReplyDeleteIt takes too long for the upgrade menu to open. On level 400+ the fast Jets will always take me out before I can re-arm my Teleport towers. The limiting factor is the speed with which the upgrade menu opens. I need to make the upgrade menu open instantly instead of being animated!
ReplyDeleteHi. I got my sandisk SD card crashed because of to many access perhaps?! By the way i lost all my saved game, i was nearlly level 17 for all upgrades, by level 60, and lot of achivements. Please, tell me you could help by creating a new file helping me to continue this game close to the point i lost my saved game?
ReplyDeleteI hope really so... Please contact me at nicholas.jallan at gmail dot com
I purchased this game about two hours ago and when I look at my downloads, it says something about still authorizing my payment. I have, however, already received my confirmation email. No idea what to do...help!
ReplyDeleteIt were nice to be able to buy the game in countries where Android Market offers only free software (e.g. in Russia). If such method already exists, please add it to FAQ. Seems like many people ask for it.
ReplyDeleteI purchased robo defense but I was having problems installing it,any suggestions?
ReplyDeleteUI have bought the game, and i have a question : how do i finish the map ? What s thé goal of the game ?
ReplyDeleteHi
ReplyDeleteI wish to purchase the game, but live abroad and it isn't available via the market. Is there another way to purchase it?
Same thing here!
ReplyDeleteI'm from South Africa and it's not available on the Market (yet). Any chance you can maybe publish the full version for an application manager like SlideME? Then I could purchase and install it!
ReplyDeleteDon't bother posting comments here people, Lupis Labs hasn't responded to one of them.
ReplyDeleteI loved this game on my Android. I am missing it now on my Pre. Will you make a webOS version? :-)
ReplyDeleteI want to buy the full version. Please mail me how to get it. My email:asdliang@cathaylife.com.tw. thanks.
ReplyDeleteAs above i wanna buy the full verson for my htc hero my email is gilbert@hotmail.com.hk
ReplyDeleteAre you still planning future updates? I was wondering if you were could you add in the ability to choose who your towers go for, i.e. lowest health, furthest one, highest health, etc. Thanks, awesome game guys!
ReplyDeleteI would like to see current tower stats on the "sell" button the way stats are shown for upgrades.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
I am up to level 370+...when I save and quit around sub-level 92 and up in level 370...the data is lost when I reopen the saved game. Is this a data overload error? I can replicate the bug....but it isnt fun! contact at java01@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteHi~ I emailed you an important message on good business opportunity for both of us. I would appreciate it if you take a look at it and kindly give me a feedback to fingertool@gmail.com.
ReplyDeletePlease add another posibility to buy the game. I dont have a creditcard, but I preferred to have the bill put on my monthly cell phone bill.
ReplyDeleteThanks in advance!
PS, I live in the Netherlands dunno if this is a possibility in other couuntries?
Hi,
ReplyDeleteI live in a country that does not support paid apps in Google Market.
Any chance of getting this some other way?
Would appreciate that a lot!
I have the same prob as Daniel... I would like to buy the full version..
ReplyDeleteWe’re really like to upload your full version(paid version) game on the another app-store market : T-STORE(www.tstore.co.kr).
ReplyDeleteT-Store was launched 2009 by SK Telecom, the No 1 largest carrier in South Korea, has many type of application for android phone.

I would like to report a small bug. When you tap a unit on the ground to bring up the upgrade window, but just tap "back" to go back to the game without upgrading, the three icons that you use to add new units stay hidden away. You can still usually grab them, but it's not as easy. A workaround is to tap an empty space in the screen while in that upgrade screen, as that brings the icons back up. Behavior should be that if you press the "back" button without upgrading the icons slide back into normal position.
ReplyDeleteUsing HTC Incredible.
Fantastic game. I almost never buy software but I paid the $3 for this.
Any chance to add a pinch to zoom feature on the map? Current view could be zoomed in all the way, but you can zoom out to see the full field by pinching. You need only have the two view levels, but it'd be a nice feature.
I have made a criminal out of myself for this game and for that I apologize. I have gotten the full version off a torrent but for $3 and the great value I get from this game I feel ashamed.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I did this because paid apps are not available in my country for whatever frickin' reason and I became addicted to the free version.
I searched on the internet for a way to paypal the money or something to download the .apk but nothing was available.
Might I suggest that you get a paypal donate button for this website at least until Google gets their head out of their ass as I do NOT enjoying this feeling of being a criminal over $3.
Love your game and I REALLY want to support it!
I just bought your game today (unbeknownst to my wife) and although I've played your free version up until now, I never actually looked at the credits until today.
ReplyDeleteI am an audiophile, and after seeing that you didn't actually create the sounds yourself, I feel completely safe in saying, those are the most grating sounds of any of the dozens of games on my phone. All but the machine gun, to be more precise.
No offense to you or your game, in fact that's why I'm writing this: I want to offer you my services as an SFX specialist in order to make your game that much more enjoyable, for free. My services, that is, not your game. :-)
As long as I get credit in your...credits. ;-)
If, by chance, you are particularly attached to those sounds, I would offer you my services as a texture artist in order to update your solid-colored sprites, as I'm assuming you're not too attached to orange, blue, and green.
No credits required. :-)
Please take a look at my portfolio at aiforvideogames.com/Gamer, as that has samples of my audio expertise and artistic talent, as I myself am trying to break into the game development industry, and am looking for any and all opportunities to supplement my Resume.
And, terrific game, as if you hadn't heard that a thousand times before. :-)
Just bought the game to show my support, hoping there will be future updates.
ReplyDeleteThe above comment seems very promising ;-)
I have all 57 achievement points ... now what?
ReplyDeleteHello, I'm from Brazil, I'd like to pay for the full version of Robo Defense. How can I do that? I have an international credit card (visa). Can I pay using that?
ReplyDeleteThanks
