Battlefleet for iPhone goes to .2

Roger Kenny sends word that one of the best web-based games for the iPhone, Battlefleet, has been updated. Not only is there a new splash page (quoting an eminent Mac gaming scholar-- ahem), but Roger has set up an "iPhone Entrance," a "Web Browser" entrance (which, strangely enough, didn't work right in Firefox 2.0.0.7 for me-- I had to play the iPhone version in my browser, which worked fine), and an "Internet Explorer Exit." Very nice.

In game, there are some good updates, too-- most notably in the Options menu, you can now switch sides and play as either Red or Blue. Unfortunately, still no multiplayer play yet, but last time we posted the game, Roger mentioned in the comments that multiplayer was as forthcoming as he could make it. Meanwhile, the game plays just as smoothly as before, and faithfully recreates the BattleShip experience.

And yes, you cheaters, Cheat Mode still does work. I won't ruin things by telling you how to do it, but it's intact.

Tip of the Day

Want to drag a file to another folder and copy it instead of moving it? Press the Option key when you drag that file and it'll be duplicated rather than moved entirely.
