The Oolong Engine is written in C++ with some help from Objective-C. It will help you to create new games and port existing games to the iPhone and the iPod touch. The best part is, its free.

    SIO2 Interactive
    Free Open Source 3D Game Engine for iPhone and iPod Touch

    SIO2 is a Free Open Source 3D Game Engine for iPhone and iPod Touch written in pure C using OpenGL|ES with a bit of Obj-C and C++ to glue things together with the iPhone & Bullet Physic.

    Please find below a list of the current & future engine features and capabilities.

    In addition SIO2 include the following libraries and functionalities embedded in the core where most of them have been modified to operate directly in memory for better performance:

    OpenAL: For 3D positional sounds (FX) and ambient music.

    Theora: For realtime MPEG4 (ogv) playback.

    Ogg: For MP3 style playback.

    LUA: As the default scripting language that includes all the SIO2 API + all the OpenGL ES API, and uses SWIG to generate the necessary C wrapper. All OpenGL ES & OpenAL instructions are also available from LUA as well as the specific SIO2 API.

    libJPEG: For fast JPEG decompression.

    Zlib: To create and compress the SIO2 fileformat (.sio2)

    libPNG: For fast PNG decompression.

    Bullet: For Rigid & Soft Body physic, as well as for collision detection, collision feedback, custom sensors and collision triggers.
