iPhone Development?

[bapenguin]

Anyone done any? My goal for next year is to create something meaningful for it.

That means a game.

I'm looking for good tutorial sites and such.

Interesting question. I'm curious myself as I could see an iPhone game being a fun project.

Have you tried these videos? (http://developer.apple.com/iphone/)

I was just going to post this and say, "Looks like the SDK is available."

Mr. Murphy is too fast. :p

I'm also somewhat interested in this, despite not having any game programming experience myself. I've been mulling over looking into development of iPhone/Touch or Zune games. Not on a professional level, but more as a learning exercise.

Bah, developer videos require iTunes to watch...guess I'll check them out at home....

Y'know if anyone was planning on something that would involve any writing, I'd like to throw my hat into the ring. I need a change of career and have decided to pursue my dream of actually getting paid for pouring out my brain on to a keyboard.

Lacking a relevent degree, I need some of that experience stuff. :D

Don't feel alone, I was going to do the same.

Bap, did you have anything in particular in mind yet? Hell anything can be better than most the crap they float out there. I for one have wanted to see a decent Action RPG where you could play an Ocarina like device or certain symbols perform certain spells. Or an On rails shooter?, nah too simple. Or a RTS, seems ideal don't it?

Am I missing something or does the SDK toolset only run on OS X? If so, I guess I'm done researching. It wouldn't surprise me that you'd need a Mac, but that does limit your number of developers if that's truly the case.

Someone please tell me I'm wrong. :o

As far as I know it does require a Mac. I worked for a company that had to buy a Mac Mini to do development.

I've done work on the (currently #2 app in the store) Seadragon Mobile app. The author of which is a CoG member Noxa. If you want more indepth answers....I'm sure we can work something out.

Did a little...wasn't too keen on learning Objective C.

Yeah it seems a bit too...wordy. I don't know. I've watched a few tutorials and wasn't to impressed with the language syntax.

I'm working on a game right now, but I'm not a programmer- I'm designing it, and others are doign the programming.
