Sky Babes vs. Fly Boys
Sky Babes vs. Fly Boys lifted off in the AppStore last week. Being the first of four original iPhone titles coming from indie developer A.C.R.O.N.Y.M. Games (who must be competing with the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. guys for some kind of award), this one looks like a gem: the maps restrained but lovely, the characters doll-faced and debonair.

Interesting premise. Have a look:
