Buttons... virtual, but buttons nevertheless

Well, it seems like the best way to implement the UI. The great thing about the iPhone is that you can invent your own controller layout.

I would love to hear alternatives to virtual buttons in the context of this game

Great, I was pretty happy with the lite version and this looks even better.

How about making the buttons somewhat transparent. They look terrible the way they are, too bright and big, they take up too much of the screen when they are that bright. If you make them transparent, then it doesn't seem like as much of the screen is taken up. Other than that, I can't view the video because I am at work, but the screenshot looks like it's cool!

Not a bad idea really. I'll play around with in the next update.

Is it out yet? Or are you updating the lite version?

A new lite version will be out alongside the full game bringing them equal in terms of features bug fixes.

And it would have been out right now, however I've been bitten by Apple's inconsistent review process. More info info here for those who are interested in these things: http://beautifulpixel.com/2009/3/14/...t-now-you-cant

That's too bad. I've been playing the lite version for a while and waiting for the full version. Still looking forward to it, and hopefully it comes out soon.
