Scare up some fun with Angry Birds Halloween
Just like Doodle Jump, another big-name App Store game is getting in the Halloween spirit. Angry Birds Halloween is now available on the App Store. It's a US$0.99 "special edition" of Angry Birds with 45 Halloween-themed levels, which are complete with "scary" backgrounds and pumpkins for you to smash.
Unlike the Doodle Jump "Doodlestein" update, Angry Birds Halloween is a totally separate app from Angry Birds, so even if you own the original Angry Birds, you'll still have to pay $0.99 for Angry Birds Halloween. But considering how much fun Angry Birds is, another buck for 45 new levels isn't a whole lot to ask.

What about Angry Ghosts? You aim, fire, and watch them float through the structures...
On second thought...

So first they release the entire game for Android for free (with ads), now they want us to pay the full price of the game all over again for a promotional copy? Doodlejump does this for free. Also, the game gets seriously boring after the first few levels.

"Also, the game gets seriously boring after the first few levels."

I made an app called Dress The Bunny that recently was updated with Halloween artwork. It's pretty cute :) Check it out here: http://www.bunnybearsoftware.com/dressthebunny

Cash cow? It's $1.
Also, can anyone confirm that it's newly designed levels, not just the same levels but with different sprites?

I'll second Theo's question. I'm fine with paying $2 for new levels for my iPad (I figure the assorted updates have already justified my initial cost), but not with paying just for new sprites.
