N+ DLC on the way
As an XBLA game, N+ is in and of itself downloadable content, so it seems a bit strange to see that it's getting some of it's own. Announced today, Metanet will be releasing a total of three downloadable content packs for the game, each with around 200 new levels. If we're lucky, the first pack will feature easier levels and some co-op multiplayer and could hit the Marketplace within three weeks. Co-creator of the game, Mare Sheppard, said:
"The other packs will probably contain harder levels, race and survival multiplayer, and some classic N levels from the original game -- we're just not sure how the content will be distributed among the packs yet,"
The team is shooting for a price of 200 points per pack, with at least one pack being free. And it seems we weren't the only one's who saw the news about the game's user-generated content, as Metanet is working on a title update that would enable level sharing among the community at large, instead of just friends.

As it is, I need to find some YouTube videos to see how to do some of the existing levels. Better players than I will be getting the DLC...

While we're on the subject of N, does anybody else have a bug that the game forgets certain levels that you've completed, I've got leaderboard times for some levels so I know I've done them, but I can't play the levels after them. Very strange.

This is great news, I love this game. I haven't had a chance to play Co-op yet - anyone want to try it out?

IncredibleBulk92, I had that issue once - try manually exiting from the game where it saves again. That seems to work for me.

IncredibleBulk - yes, absolutely. It's frustrated me almost to the point of being reluctant to play this awesome game. It happens sporadically in single player, but 100% of the time in co-op. The game awards the completed levels to the person who's not the host. I haven't played with more than two players, so I don't know what happens with more people.
I hope the devs are aware and that a fix for that is coming as well!

This is my favorite arcade game, though I would be very happy if they fixed some flaws like the lag and like some people said, the co-op episodes not showing as completed.
