Be sure to check out the demo video! Then go buy it on the iTunes Store! Oh wait, you probably came to this site from the iTunes Store so you’re looking for more information, right? Okay, here’s an FAQ:

  • Are updates free? Yes! So if you buy now, you’ll automatically get the updates for free when they’re done.
  • What’s this virtual 3D display that I keep hearing about? I make use of the accelerometer and the view frustum to make it look like the display is 3D. It’s kind of like head-tracking, but in reverse. It assumes that your head is stationary and figures out the iPhone (or iPod Touch) orientation with the accelerometer.
  • What do non-standard dice (like 7-sided dice) look like? Right now, they’re represented by an icosahedron with question marks all over it.
  • What features are you planning on implementing? Egads, there’s a ton of stuff I’d like to do. Here’s a partial list:
    • dice locking to hold (and move) some dice while you re-roll others
    • more choices for backgrounds and dice colors
    • a record of previous dice rolls
    • ability to save dice formula presets
    • ability to drop min and max dice
    • ability to drop dice values above or below a threshold
    • better dice formula entry
    • subtraction for formula entry
    • backspace for formula entry
    • fix d4 graphics
    • better d2 graphics (a coin)
    • better d100 graphics (two d10s or one big fat die? ach, decisions, decisions…)
    • open-ended dice
    • exploding dice?
    • better pseudo-random number generator
    • customizable dice
    • better graphics overall
    • better sound
    • better physics
  • What’s it been like developing for the iPhone? It’s been great! But if you’re really interested, check out my blog on the home page or subscribe to my RSS feed.

And in case you haven’t seen this yet, here’s the blurb on the application that’s on the iTunes Store, which lists current features:

Roll dice on your iPhone or iPod Touch! This app features animating 3D dice rolling on screen and uses the accelerometer to simulate an actual 3D view. You can use it anywhere, even in places where dice rolling is inconvenient: In a car (not while driving)! On a plane (not while piloting)! In the bathroom! Well, you get the idea.

Features:

  • Animated 3D dice that actually roll around on screen!
  • Tilt the device to view the dice from different angles!
  • Shake the device (or press a button) to start rolling
  • Hear the dice roll
  • Automatically adds up your dice totals
  • 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 20 sided dice are available
  • Specify dice with formulas like “3d6″ (for three 6-sided dice) and “2d4 + 1d8″ (for two 4-sided dice and one 8-sided die)
  • Roll up to 100 dice at once
  • Start with a different random seed each time
