Hurrah! iPhone app is a-go!

I finally got to stop working on the editors and some such today, and got started on the app itself. It's a great feeling. I have the app reading in our data files, loading textures, and rendering maps. Next step is to get some characters on the maps, and get them moving about a bit.

I think we would start to see things coming together now if I could put some of the actual artwork into it, but unfortunately Pix is running a bit behind with our initial collection of bits.

I need to do a lot of thinking about user interface stuff over the next few days. It's really not clear how we're going to deal with interaction – when certain screens come up, what triggers moving onto the next phase of the game, etc. I've got a couple more things to do before I really have to think about that though, so I guess I should just get on with it.
