   We just finished our first cocos2d iPhone game Railroad Madness, which is now available for download at the App Store.

   In Railroad Madness, you must route cargo and passenger trains to their correct station without crashing any. The game is highly addictive and the online leaderboards help make it competitive. The leaderboards can be viewed from within the game or at http://www.f84games.com/railroad/.

   Cocos2d v0.7.3 was used for Railroad Madness and I found it to be extremely helpful. I loved how easy it was to setup actions and particle systems. We used our own php/JSON setup for the leaderboards, which allows us to modify how the leaderboards are represented without having to send updates. Currently only your highscore is represented, but there are actually numerous stats that we are tracking and uploading at the moment. We've started development on our second app on which I look forward to working with cocos2d v0.8.

   Thanks to all that worked on cocos2d and for the helpful posts on the forum!

   I've bought the game
   Its definitely well done but I would really welcome it if the direction control for the arrows was done with "drag targeting". Most of my crashes happen because its not possible to turn them within a usefull amount of time and because its only possible to turn them one way not both ways which often means the "long way" (5 jumps instead of 1)

   Am enjoying this game. But would be nice to turn off the train noise :P But still have sound effects (such as when a new train arrives). Also second what @gayasoft is saying about the arrow control.

   Thanks for the feedback guys. Drag targeting is definitely the most requested feature and we will be adding it in to the next update. I would definitely like to play with sound some more. Hopefully we can get that up soon. Right now I'm finishing off our next game, which we should upload for approval tomorrow.
