Dear AIS, Where’s Lights Off?

August 6, 2008 by Douglas

Today a reader sent the following email:

Do you guys know anything on the status of the Lights Off game? The website for it has been down for sometime and I have not heard much about it since its release. I was just wondering if you had any information on this app coming to the AppStore or being updated for 2.0 jailbreak. The reason I ask is because I would like to have that app on my 2.0 touch. Thanks for your time. – Dewey

Dewey, thanks for the email! Here’s what I found. Over on MacRumors’s Forums there’s a post from Steve (the developer, not Steve Jobs) dated July 23rd that gives us lots of info! Yay! Here it is: [Read more…]

Price: Free

NeverputtME is a game that has been out for a little while now via Installer…for firmware 1.1.4 and below. It is a putting game, created by Lazrhog, that is based on the Neverball engine.

When you open NeverputtME, you will get the info screen where you will get a little bit of information about the app. To get to the Main Menu of the app, select the Play option in the upper left corner.

You will then be brought to the main menu which has two options; Play and Help. Help will give you hints on how to play the game. If you select Play you are able to choose a course. As you drag your finger across the course options [Read more…]
