The Home Screen version of Sunset has gotten two improvements. The first is the addition of a default.png that is displayed whenever you launch the game instead of a screenshot of the state of the game when you last quit. This uses a feature that's brand new to version 3.0 of iPhone OS, so make sure you're up to date!
The second is the use of a cache manifest file which cuts the initial load time in half, and as far as I can tell actually allows you to load and play Sunset entirely offline. In other words, after you've saved the game to your home screen and launched it at least once, the game is installed and you can play it anytime, even when you don't have an internet connection. Cool, huh?
