Yeah, the OP was not phrased very well, but I 1) understood exactly what he was asking about and 2) was immediately wracking my brain to try and find that game for the iPhone that uses Perl on the backend that was mentioned on this site. Luckily I still have it installed, because finding it has proven to be be like searching for a needle in a haystack (it's "The Lacuna Expanse", btw).

Meanwhile, all you did was hurl insults at a post you apparently failed to read the entirety of. All I can say is you should really find a better pastime than trolling for poorly phrased questions.

Update: You know, looking at the OP again, it looks fine to me. It's written in a very casual style, but the OP makes it very clear he's looking for pointers to good resources on what he is trying to do, so a more formal style is not necessary. The only problem I see here is the overzealous responses the OP received.
