I've been working on an RTS game for iPad recently.

Here's my initial prototype (there's no audio in this first video):

Week 2 - This video has an audio commentary explaining the game's controls.

Week 3 - This one shows some of the software and tools I use for iPad devleopment, as well as an update on the game.

And here's a look at some of the drone models:

It's a base-defense style game where you have to hold off waves of attacking enemies for as long as possible. Your 3 drones specialize in air to air combat, air to ground attack, and electronic warfare, so you have to combine their skills in creative ways to fend off mixed groups of enemies (choppers, tanks, bombers, SAMs etc).

I'll be posting more updates here and in this forum thread: www.torquepowered.com/community/forums/viewthread/116503
