NeXFerret has released “Another World of Sand clone”…

It’s nowhere near finished… but at a pretty good state. It runs at 56-60FPS solidly, no matter what you plonk onscreen. At the moment, everything acts like sand of different densities. Have a go, and provide some feedback, please!

Chris Hoffman made an application that would allow for easy access to the different running services for the phone such as Wifi, Bluetooth, EDGE, Calling, and SSH. Currently the application only supports turning on/off Edge, Bluetooth, Wifi, and OpenSSH.

Znax is a remake of a game by Nick Kouvaris. It is a sort of puzzle / arcade game where you as the player need to select 4 blocks of the same color and form rectangles as big as you can. By doing this you will erase all blocks in this square and they will be replaced by new blocks. You keep on doing this till the time runs out, and try to gain your highest score possible. There are two game modes, Relative timer and fixed Timer, in the first mode you’ll also gain extra time for deleting blocks so you can play longer if you are fast enough. With the second mode you don’t get extra time for deleting blocks but just points added to your score so here you try to get the highest amount of points in the given time period. The game has support for up to 25 additional mod or ogg music files and skin support!

Books.app is a simple eBook reader for the iPhone. It reads HTML and text files stored in your Media/EBooks folder, and is smart enough to enter subdirectories, if, for instance, you’ve broken a book down by chapters.

Changes:

New as of version 1.1

PalmDOC and Plucker support, thanks to Zachary Bedell (all the best hackers are named Zachary). Support is somewhat rudimentary at the moment. I hope to implement auto-splitting for these files in particular–at the moment large PDB books are impractical.

Added GIF support to the image-viewing functionality.

Bug fixes.

Rumor has it a new iPhone Software Update will arrive this week. Please don’t forget that Books.app is at Apple’s mercy, and it’s very possible that after this update, Books.app (and all other third-party programs) will no longer work. (After all, no one’s jailbreaked the iPod Touch yet.) So if you’re thinking of donating, thank you!–but it’s better to wait ’til after the update comes down the pike, in case you’re never able to run the program again. 🙂
