iPhone apps

It's working nicely, and it opens up some interesting possibilities. The main one being that HTML/JS can be packaged using Phonegap to create "native" apps for iPhone, Android etc.
Here's the Quest 5 tutorial game running as an iPhone app.

The app runs entirely offline, so you can play the game anywhere.
It's still early days. Clearly, the tutorial game isn't of App Store quality - this is just a proof of concept, and there's still a bit of work to do to make everything as slick as possible.
