Where's the promised update?

C'mon guys! Some stuff broke in that
last update and OF is long dead. Come back and bring this game into the modern age PLEASE!

:(

old ui was much better. this look is not an improvement.
looks like the designer was being lazy.

Terrible!

I installed this app because I liked the style of the aliens and enjoy puzzle games. Unfortunately, the orientation is off, and the game is extremely glitchy. It kept freezing up and crashing.

Just ok

Kind of a neat take on match 3 games. In the end you are way too confined with little to no real control over your success. I don't see it getting much play time but I'll hang onto it for now.
