A mini shooting game! Made during really slow days in class.

Left control is a movement joypad, right control is a directional firing pad. The direction your finger rests on the fire pad determines the direction your projectiles go in.
Note: requires two players!
I sometimes need to make webclips when not connected to the internet, and this script is perfect for that. Nifty tool.
Another little thing would be if gravity() used Core Motion so that it also included data from the gyroscope and compass. This could potentially be pretty powerful a way of playing with the built in sensors.
Maybe Box2D and its pure python wrapper PyBox2D would work? I know that Box2D works on iOS, though the Python wrapper might need to be tweaked somewhat.
I would personally most like to see scene.gravity() NOT be a normalized vector. As it is now, it's not possible to determine the magnitude of the acceleration, only the direction. This prevents certain things like using Pythonista to detect approximate velocity, or determining actual acceleration.
TL;DR I'd like to see a non-normalized vector from scene.gravity()
