David Frampton (Majic Jungle Software) is an independent app developer who has made a big splash with a new game. His latest iPhone app The Blockheads has been downloaded almost two million times in five days, since it's release this past Thursday.

The obvious head-fake in the success of the new game is three fold I think.
