I can’t quite put my finger on why I love this game so much. Maybe its because its so beautifully simple, or that fact that the music is almost hypnotic or it might well be that I do seem to genuinely care about the safety of Beany.

Its been a long time coming, but Flash has finally made it onto the iPhone – in the form of, wait for it – standalone applications. For reasons beyond us (obviously not technical), there is still no Flash Plugin runtime for the iPhone version of Safari. Nevertheless this is good news for Flash developers as it provides new opportunities developing for an established platform.

Some sample applications are already on the App Store, made with an pre-release version of Flash CS5, which exports/converts Flash projects into “native” iPhone apps. It will be interesting to see how these perform as traditionally anything built with Flash is quite resource hungry (compared to truly native applications) .

League Gothic is a revival of an old classic and now part of the Open Source Type Movement. A great header font for your Flash projects.
