iPhone status

It's been a while since I've last posted.. but Critical Altitude for the iPhone is on its way soon!  I'm currently waiting for registration approval from the iPhone Developer Program... and the ability to test on a real device without hacking XCode.  Here's a recent screenshot from the iPhone

The performance on a real iPhone device is nearly double what I've found on the BlackBerry Storm 2 and HTC Dream/G1!

'Critical Altitude 3D' submitted for approval on BlackBerry AppWorld!

I've submitted the 3D flying game I've been working on to AppWorld for their approval - so it should hopefully be available soon.  New screenshots:

Gameplay update

The game is somewhat playable now, but probably a little too easy. A rough plane texture was added, a 'bump mapped' ground texture, and the view has changed a bit now too.

Menu Screen

Rough draft of a menu screen, and a potential name - "Critical Altitude". I'd like to have some animation on it though..

Collision Detection

An update on the city flying project. Just added some basic sphere and plane collision detection in the game. ...and a great CRASHHH effect

build automation

Recently I've been working on automating my build process for BlackBerry apps and developing on a Mac!
