Butterfly

September 9, 2007 – 8:17 pm
Here comes a fun one by Erica Sadun. Butterfly is actually a very cool app - the first game I've seen which uses the accelerometer to enhance game play. Its actually a great tool to show off how cool your iPhone is. ;) To use it, install via Installer.app, start it up, and then lay the iPhone flat in your hand. The butterflies will float around the screen, you can move the net by tilting the iPhone in the direction you want the net to go. The net and butterfly just have to touch in order for it to count as a "catch." Great job, Erica! I'm very interested to see the fun games this will spawn. I can envision a lot of cool maze games, etc... like the old ones where you had to tilt the toy to get the ball through the various obstacles. Fun times.

iPowerHour

September 6, 2007 – 8:14 pm
Brought to you by Chad Kouse, iPowerHour brings a drinking game to your iPhone. The point? Every 60 seconds for an entire hour you take a shot of beer. iPowerHour changes to a randomly selected song from your iPhone's library each 60 seconds so you know when to drink. That's 2.66 liters of beer in one hour, so make sure you have enough on hand. :D iPowerHour is available via their site, iBrickr/Breezy, and Installer. http://code.google.com/p/iphonepowerhour/

NES

September 6, 2007 – 8:13 pm
An NES emulator for your iPhone (no, we CAN'T give you links to ROMs, but Google knows all), this is one of the more popular apps for the iPhone, adding as many games to your iPhone as you can find ROMs on the web. Ah, its nice to be playing Mike Tyson's Punch-Out and Contra on my iPhone. :D Created by nervegas, it is very well maintained, and now includes support for Game Genie, has working sound, and saves games as well. One of my personal favorites! NES is available via their site, iBrickr/Breezy, and Installer. http://iphone.natetrue.com/nesapp/
