BREAKING REPORT! Tomorrow Corporation has just learned that Little Inferno for iPhone will be available beginning TONIGHT, Thursday, March 28 for Easter Weekend – and will be on sale for $0.99 (and equivalents) all weekend to celebrate.Β It will joyfully melt screens of iPhone 4s and up and iPod Touch 5 and up. Up up up. (Note that due to heavy graphics requirements and a fire burning at 100 billion degrees, this version will not work on the older iPhone 4 or lower.)
Once the iPhone version is released, the iPad version will automatically convert to a Universal version called “Little Inferno HD”, so you can use your existing iPad version on your iPhone or iPod Touch as well, with no additional purchase needed. Both the iPhone and Universal versions will also introduce iCloud support so you can easily play across multiple devices.
As with the Wii U, PC, and iPad versions, the iPhone version will also ship in English, Spanish, French, Dutch, German, and Brazilian Portuguese. Italian will also be coming soon for all platforms. Thanks again to our volunteer translators! And as always, just like the other versions of the game, Little Inferno on iPhone is still 100% free of in-app purchases, ads, spam, etc. Youβll get Just The Game and nothing else!
If you happen to be at GDC this year, stop by the IGF Pavillion and see us and all the other IGF Finalists!
NOOOOOO I ONLY HAVE AN IPOD 4TH GEN. Can I burn my 4th gen in my Entertainment Fireplace and get enough money back for a 5th gen?
If you submerge it in liquid nitrogen, its circuits might run faster!
Awesome! I’m totally gonna do that and throw it around my fireplace until it shatters. I forgot I can get the money that way, too!
Thank you! Btw I think the Pocket version should have been called Little Little Inferno.
Sent from my iPod.
I am very dissipointed on how it is only for 5gen and up after a bought it I want a refund or update
Hey Evan, we’ve tried to be clear about the min specs, but Apple doesn’t have a way to prevent older devices from purchasing the game anyway. You can always get a refund for any app though! http://gizmodo.com/5886683/how-to-get-a-refund-from-the-app-store
This is great news!
Can I put in an official request for an Android version as well? π
Yes please i want android too
Android! Android! Android!
Android version would be great!
Congrats guys! I’m also rooting for an Android version, as I’m planning to get an Android phone.
Haha, pun. “Root”ing for Android. π
I just updated and followed your instructions to first start the game on my iPad before starting it on my iPhone. The result is that my save just disappeared and I now have 3 blank “New Game” slots in the main menu.
It would have been nice to NOT have to use iCloud as it is broken…
TL;DR:
Great game, don’t use it with iCloud…
Hey Flemming, thanks for the bug report, and sorry you lost the save file, that’s certainly not the intended behavior. Unfortunately, the save file probably isn’t recoverable, but we’ll try and get an update out asap so this doesn’t happen to anyone else. If you don’t mind, which devices are you using? And do you recall the exact steps you followed that led to this? Thanks for your help!
I have an iPad mini and an iPhone 4S. Had the app open on the iPad ~5 minutes before launching it on the iPhone.
Kyle. You are the most awesome bauss guy in the world. THAAAAAAAAANK YOUUUU FOR THE FIIIREPLAAAAACE
I paid for this in hd but i can not play it due to my iPhone can i get my monny back ir at least the game or my computer
Hey Aaron, absolutely. We tried to make it clear which devices the game works on, but unfortunately, there is no way to actually prevent purchases made from older iphone4’s. However, you can get a refund for this app (or any other app on the appstore!), just follow the instructions here: http://gizmodo.com/5886683/how-to-get-a-refund-from-the-app-store
Finished π 4hrs of gameplay
Hey Mr. Kyle!
Just considering, do you guys pretend to do an Android version of the game? Maybe for the “advanced devices”?
We hope so!
Thanks for the answer!
Yes thank you kyle i really hope we can get it as its the best game ever
Looking forward to the Linux version!
We don’t need an Android version just an Ubuntu Phone/Touch version π
DO I PAD 1 version!!!!!!!!!,!!
Downloaded π It is awesome, a bit laggy sometimes. Please upload some concept art π
I really want to know if there are any plans to make this available for iPhone 4. I would definitely download it if you do. I also plan on buying a WiiU soon and will download it there as well.
Working on it π
Hello Tomorrow Corporation! Why is there no more modding introduction on the forum? Could you tell me what the image format in iOS pak files are? Thanks!
Please put this back on sale!!
I LOVE Little Inferno and was really excited when it came out for iPod/iPhone, but my iPod is 4TH GEN!!! π By any chance, are you working on it so it can be compatible with 4g??? I really really really want to get it, but I can’t!!!
Please release an Android version! World of Goo was great on the ‘droid, now let us have Little Inferno! <3
It keeps shutting off while playing and now it’s stuck on the title screen it won’t let me play I deleted the app and redownloaded it and it still won’t let me play it. I have to iPhone4

Doesn’t work where it would normally say 2.99it doesn’t say anything
It’s weird
My iPod is ios7
I have to say this is one of the best little games I’ve ever played. From the soundtrack to the little notes from Sugar Plum. Thankyou for the hours of entertainment so far and for all those still to come.
Do you know why it doesn’t
Work
Hi guys,
made this video using LI screen shoots; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hsOZHKEvSA
Dear Tomorrow Corporation,
It is cold outside and getting colder. Thank you for giving me something warm to do. I had a hard time looking away.
…
Seriously, thank you for this game. I think it works beautifully on the ipad. It seems like the right size, the HD looks beautiful, and of course as an app store ipad gamer who sometimes falls for the freemium model I found this very thought provoking.
I had fun burning things, I loved the notes from Sugar Plumps, I had fun trying to figure out the combos, and I had fun trying to barrel through to the end wondering what was going to happen. The game says I spent over four hours with it and I feel like maybe I provoked the ending too soon (but I was so curious!) I might play it again to find all of the combos.
I’m now recommending it to my unsuspecting friends π
My son just bought little inferno and it’s stuck on title screen. I’ve read a lot of similar posts on Apple please tell me you guys are aware of this. He’s bummed about wasting $5 on this.
Hello, we are working on an update. In the meantime, this likely means the game is trying to get game progress from iCloud and failing (usually due to a partial upload from a different iDevice). The solutions/workarounds are:
1. Make sure any iDevices on which you previously played Little Inferno are on and connected to the internet, so they can finish uploading their progress. Launching the game on those other devices may help nudge the iCloud system too.
2. Failing that, you can either: a. Delete Little Inferno data from iCloud (Settings->Usage->iCloud Manage Storage->Little Inferno->Edit->Delete All); or b. If you donβt want to sync progress across multiple devices, disable iCloud syncing (Settings->Little Inferno->Set βSave progress on iCloudβ to βOFFβ.
Hope that helps!
