please please please align the left edge of the logo with the left edges of the input fields. It may not seem like a big deal, but it will drive a certain percentage of your users bat-poo poo insane if it's centered and nothing else is.

Me and a guy from my job have been working on a game for the iPhone called vConqr (previous Virtual Conquest). I've been working on the new website (https://www.vconqr.com) and some of the new game features, specifically downloadable maps and online play.





It has been really interesting working with the iPhone. I come from a C# background and it has taken a while, but I've really grown to like obj-c with all it's [[[]]] goodness.

We just submitted a new version to the app store which fixes a lot of complaints with the previous version, it's great to be able to make something which people play, instead of mindless bank software...

Who did the art? How'd they do it? It looks really nice.

The map is just an image, which was created by my partner's wife who is a graphic designer, the effects are all done dynamically.

Just bought... Looks sweet

Thanks for buying! The version you just bought is the old version, we just submitted the new version to the app store yesterday, so it should be live in a few days. It's much much improved...!

quote:

So, I presume that you can just touch a country to select it? How did you do boundary checking? Was it just ad-hoc (Ural is in this polygon, Western United States is in this polygon, etc.), or was it some kind of procedural method (graphically detect where borders are, create a polygon that represents that border).

You just touch to select and attack. We have a list of polygons that represent the hit zones and we do a bounds check to see which territory you selected.

EDIT: The new version has just gone live into the app store!
