QuickHit v2.0

This Nokia Developer example application demonstrates the use of Qt Quick as a game platform. QuickHit is essentially a basic shooting game, but differentiated from other such games by its levels. The levels are Qt plug-ins which are loaded during QuickHit startup. IAP (in-application purchase) features were added to the 2.0 version of the game. New levels can now be purchased from the Nokia Store. This example demonstrates the use of non-DRM purchasing. The levels to purchase are not bundled in the original installation but downloaded from a back-end server once payment has been made.
