First Native iPhone Game: Lights Out

Lucas Newmann and Adam Betts have created and released the first native iPhone game titled: Lights Out. Since the application is native it requires you download it and than use Jailbreak tools to install the game on the phone itself. The game was developed with Apples UI Kit framework, the same set of tools used to build other native games such as the YouTube interface or Maps.The object of the game is simple: to turn off all the lights. The players taps a square and it, along with the adjacent lights will toggle. One all the lights are out you proceed to the next level.

The game took second place in the C4 Iron Coder Contest, only being beat by MacDaddy World's video conferencing application. Application like these show the great accomplishments being made on the iPhone and are bringing out what will be possible in the future, now we just need to wait a little.
