Apple's Puzzler Game and Sample Code

by

Last week, Apple released a sample Web 2.0 game for the iPhone called Puzzler.

"Puzzler" is a fun and interactive game that illustrates the use of web standards and JavaScript for the iPhone.

This application makes advanced usage of mouse-handlers for user-input.

To play the game simply double-click or double-tap on any set of 2 or more balls of the same color that are touching. The balls will disappear and any balls above or to the left of the balls you just eliminated will shift into new positions. The goal is to clear all the balls from the screen.
