IsoWords update submitted w/ iOS 4 compatibility
I just submitted an update for all versions of IsoWords (bringing the version to 1.1.5) with iOS 4 compatibility. All this means really is that IsoWords is now compatible with the “fast switching” version of multitasking. So, you can exit IsoWords, go into other apps and do other things, and then come back to [...]
Some people are freakin’ awesome at IsoWords
The 1.1 update of IsoWords has been out for over a week, and over 25,000 games and words have been submitted to the leaderboards. Up until this point I was used to dominating all my friends at this game, but now I see I am barely hanging onto the top (btw, if we aren’t friends [...]
IsoWords 1.1 sneak peak

IsoWords
This post is about my new game for the iPhone called IsoWords. It was submitted to the App Store just a few days ago.
IsoWords lives in the flooded genre of word games, alongside gems like “Words with Friends” and “Word Warp”, but also amid a bunch of crap and poorly done knockoffs. Letters are distributed [...]
