Which controls would you prefer for an iPhone game
Tilt controls, buttons, or drag? By the way, this is a game that can only go left and right.

Tilt and buttons. Dragging is hard to work right.

Re: Which controls would you prefer for an iPhone game
Are you programming it in Objective-C, or using GameSalad?

Re: Which controls would you prefer for an iPhone game
it would depend.... like for the phineas and ferb app in the "cowabunga candace" game where you have to avoid certain things but pick up others it's very specific where you have to be. but for something like pong it would probably be good. what's the concept of the game?
personaly though i prefer the drag controlls. i feel like it gives me more, well, controll

Re: Which controls would you prefer for an iPhone game
What's dragging?
Tilt and buttons is the only one I'm familiar with, so as they say, go with what you know

Touch the object on the screen and drag it.

Re: Which controls would you prefer for an iPhone game
It really depends on what game its for... Is it that free running game you where talking about a while back? (I think you said you were making a free running game...)

Buttons. But if it had REAL buttons it would be BETTER.

In this game you are falling straight down a tunnel, and you have to dodge the obstacles.
