    Unity3D uses either C# or Javascript. There may be a way to use Objective-C on the Mac, but I don't have one, so I can't verify that.

    This video will give you a good introduction to programming in Unity - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-X-Ebh1kYA

    Unity uses a language similar to C#. The only reason the iPhone SDK is used is to compile the game. This package does all the effects, and other things you want.

    Alright I see now. Thanks. Someday I'll learn how to program for Unity, but for now my goal is Objective-C.

    I don't know. You might want to ask in Unity's forums.

    LOL, C# is extremely similar in syntax to C++

    Most games that work on 3.x will work 5.x simply because OpenGL 2.0 will remain OpenGL 2.0 (EG, there will be little to no update to that).
