Could the Iconfactory’s first game become the ideal addiction for iPhone owners? They’re looking for your help to get word to Apple that this simple, challenging application would make the ideal touch-sensitive game. Grassroots all the way baby![…] Thanks to WoWKodos for providing this nice story on Digg (more than 627 Diggs).
What other user say about this:
adolfojp: Queue iPhone apologists saying that web apps are better than an SDK for this sort of app in 5… 4… 3… 2…
skinfitz: Nice idea except iPhone is a closed platform you can’t install anything on and it doesn’t even have Flash, so good luck with that.
psWii360liteDS: I read one of the reply above, the game is done in cocoa. The phone support cocoa, so it should be very easy to port, right? The phone doesn’t support Adobe Flash according to Apple.
Genout: it was stated by by terssi up top but it is worth saying again. why can this game not be made with adobe flash, i tried the game it seems fun
but it does not look that hard to program. If you want people to support your game you should explain why it can not be ported over to flash.or you should open it up to the open source groups and let some one port it to flash.
kiantech: windows mobile, symbian, palm, java apps! so many phones support 3rd party apps! my 4 year old nokia can run java apps, so no excuse for apple
consonance: I doubt that Apple’s going to make an exception to their closed platform rule for some game developers they’ve probably never heard of. Will this game make it on the iPhone? Fat chance.

RandoTheKing: It’s kind of late
l0ne: Frenzic sucks. Port Quinn instead. Quinn rocks! http://www.simonhaertel.de/quinn
(All IMHO of course :D)
Uh, that and Bloxors — http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/games/bloxorz
louiemantia: Lovely idea, Ged!
Ramble: Why don’t they just implement it in a browser?
One that needs login if it’s paid.

afruff23: OMG a game for a MAC!
roodammy44: It’s only grassroots cos it’s a closed development platform.
How lame – if Nokia can implement a stable phone with 3rd party apps then apple can, don’t believe the bullshit
Sparragus: Biggest/worst/whatever the words that fit is blog spam ever.
