Developer MachineWorks Northwest porting original to Apple device. Come get some.
Privately-held independent developer MachineWorks Northwest is porting the original Duke Nukem 3D game to Apple’s iPhone.
MachineWorks Northwest has decided to undertake a wholesale port of the 1996 PC original, though has – according to an IGN report – made subtle graphical upgrades.
Working with the iPhone’s multi-touch interface has been a notable challenge for teams developing games on Apple’s smartphone.
The group’s solution has been to – like with its previous iPhone FPS Prey Invasion – apply virtual analogue sticks at the corner of the screen.
As Duke himself would say: "ah... much better".
