Hi guys I was just watching the Apple World Wide Developer Conference, and one of the iOS 7 improvements was motion backgrounds. The idea is that as you move your phone, the background moves with the phones movement. Creating a kind of 3D effect.

I've recreated this in App Game Kit, as you can see here.



Here's the tutorial for it.

I know people think their animated backgrounds on android phones look cool and stuff, but there's a reason iphones have a much longer battery life. If apple seriously added this in, they better give a way to turn it off.

I think the background is moving the wrong way, when you tilt to the left, it should move to the right, to reveal what's behind the front layer, this your showing is opposite of reality.

Quick challenge. Can anyone do a better version? Would be good to see who in the AppGameKit community can make the best version of this simple idea.
