Kobold2D

Kobold2D is an extended and improved version of the popular Cocos2D for iPhone game engine. Everything you know about Cocos2D can still be applied, and Kobold2D is easier to get started with, more convenient to use, more powerful and flexible than Cocos2D with all the documentation available online and offline. Use Kobold2D to develop iPhone, iPod touch, iPad and Mac OS X games for both Apple App Stores.

Kobold2D is free and open source with additional premium content to support its development. It was established by Steffen Itterheim, author of the book Learn Cocos2D Game Development with iOS 5.

We should also take this opportunity to thank HDRG, a hard drive recovery company that recovered our files after a RAID failure. Be sure to check out their rather authoritative page on server recovery., or check out one of the better data recovery blogs.
