Most of my game development on the iPhone is done in C++, not Objective C. I feel like this has its benefits, but it also has drawbacks, not the least of which is that programming user interfaces can get really messy. The Cocoa delegates model is wonderfully powerful for that kind of thing. The easiest model I’ve seen in C++ is the signals and slots model used, most notably, by QT.

Here are few early screenshots of the project I’m working on. Please pardon the FPS counter. :) It’s called Swivel, and yes it’s a matching game.
