Back when the iPhone was first announced, there was no SDK, you’ll remember. Jobs said that developers could just make web apps, and that they would be good enough. Of course, he was wrong — given what you can do with your iPhone now compared to what you could do with your iPhone then, even Steve would be happy to say that yes, there is a native app for that. But let’s not toss the projects out with the development platform, so to speak. Neven Mrgan, one of the devs over at Panic, has released Pie Guy, a free and surprisingly full-featured game for the iPhone that exists only as a Javascript web app. To play it, just point your iPhone 3GS (the page says you need one of those, and while I was able to play it on my 1G, it was too clunky to enjoy) to mrgan.com/pieguy, add that page to your homescreen, and there you go.
In case you haven’t guessed from the pic above (or the name), the game itself is a straightforward Pac-Man clone. But what’s most interesting here is the example this game sets. Think about it: a full featured, automatically updated game release, delivered straight to the iPhone without any approval required by Apple. The revenue model might need some work, but maybe we dismissed this whole “web app” idea a little too quickly. For devs looking to go around the App Store’s process, maybe there’s a solution here. Boy, Flash sure would help with that, wouldn’t it?Pie Guy: A web game for the iPhone originally appeared on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW) on Thu, 26 Nov 2009 11:00:00 EST.

I had a desire to make my own organization, nevertheless I did not have enough of money to do this. Thank goodness my close fellow advised to take the home loans. Hence I took the collateral loan and realized my dream.
