iPhone Application Ideas...

[omgitsthebishop]

Hey guys, well after about 6 months of reading and experimenting, I have finally decided that I am ready to build my very first, published to the AppStore, Application.

But obviously, the million dollar question, what should it be?

So I ask you guys, what would be an app that you would definitely pay a few bucks for? Not a confusing app like Madden or Call of Duty, something that would be really useful?

Thanks for any input, and if I do chose your idea, I'll throw you %5 of the profit I make!

So let me know!

How about an app that makes the media player have the appearance of an old-fashioned juke box? Dunno how that'd work, but it'd be neat just the same

Well I've decided on the App, and here's a little teaser, from my graphics work:

Would you mind porting it to Android too?

If I could find someone to port it for a reasonable price... Sure

Tips on making a game, think of a great concept and run with it (how do you think games like Portal or Braid have become mainstream). With Apps it's especially important, concept first graphics, sound and physics second.

BTW are you using the iPhone SDK for Mac?

Yeah listen to this guy, it seems like he knows what he's talking about.

If you need OpenGL ES help, I've been perfecting my engine for the past few years so I might be of assistance to you.

If you don't mind me asking what have you been reading? I've been studying iphone development also. Did you have any prior programming experience?

Also are you going to use cocos2d-iphone?

I can whole-heartedly recommend Jeff LaMarche's books, in particular Beginning iPhone Development. Also, yes I am extremely good with Java so it just helped me already knowing another language. Also I will be using 2d on this app, and I've been experimenting with 3d, and may soon release an app with that.

Good luck OMGITSTHEBISHOP, Hope to see your app on the app store in a short while. =)

If anyone wants to help me out with another app, make a quick $50, and has the game Catch Phrase ( electronic version ) and has the sdk for mac. PM me.

Oo, nice game idea. I like the graphic.
Once I tryed making apps for android but I didn't even know what program language I used so I quit, It was a voice memo app, worked quit well but I wasn't able to record sound...

Will you add OpenFeint?

Will you add OpenFeint?

This and/or Game Center compatibility.

Also, nice looking game man! When are you going to release a trailer for the game?
