>> Now the game is completely touch based. So we use the touch to drag our puzzle piece down over here. We use the touch for zooming in and out, we use the touch for panning around. And most importantly of all, we use the touch for rotating. So in this case we do a little rotation, get the water droplets in there. And obviously this is a very simple level, it's level one. Once we get forty droplets in there we get to move on to the next level. The game has fifty levels, they get pretty complicated. The puzzles are very large. There are force fields and switches, and all sorts of things we have to do, but I want to show you guys something interesting on level two. If I take this part, just kind of move it over here and just get a bunch of stuff firing all over the place. This is extremely CPU intensive stuff to do. We're doing hundreds, if not thousands, especially on the higher levels, of polygon accurate collision tests every single frame. And it requires a good CPU to do that, and we have a great CPU here in the iPhone. Now the great thing about Pro Mag Rally, what really makes it a superb iPhone game is the fact that the iPhone itself is the steering wheel. So if I turn the iPhone right, the car goes right. If I turn the car left, the car goes left. That's really you know, that just makes this game what it is. And every time someone plays this for the first time, they just start laughing because it's a whole new kind of driving experience to play a game where the device is the controller. So we're really excited to be able to say that we're gonna have Enigmo and Pro Mag Rally up on the app store at launch for nine ninety nine each. Thank you very much.
