Gem Rain for Windows is in the showcase. 
This is the same version for the iPhone and I think it's been working okay but feel free to beta test it please!

I cant see any Gems in the game, is that normal?

[Kuron]

It looks nice!  I can't test it though as OpenGL stuff doesn't currently run on this system.

Oh...I've forgot to change the media directory. I will have to recompile it...again.  sorry

[matchy]

Thanks, Schranz0r, for testing. I've updated the file and it should be okay now. 

Kuron, hopefully I will get in on Mac and other platforms working soon.

[codegit]

Nice! 

[Moru]

Very nice, I started the first level with loosing a pad, then I did 20 levels in a row and no streak, do you loose the streak until you restart the game again?

[matchy]

Cheers codegit and thanks for trying it out Moru. 

Streaks can only be earned with a full stack of pads (no lost pads). This was implemented at the later stage for achievements in OpenFeint; which is something like for levels streaks: eg. level 1 for 5-10 points,2,3,4,5,10,30,50,70,80 up to level 90 for 250-500 (1000 total) achievement points. There is old code for local and online high-score table system. Can I use it on the glbasic online hiscore system? 

[Moru]

Is the system pointer supposed to be there by the way? You can turn it off with SYSTEMPOINTER FALSE. Since you call MOUSESTATE already, it should disappear then but still give you mouse coordinates.
