Le Web 2009: Appsfire Announces iPhone App Star Award Winners

Here at Le Web in Paris, Appsfire just announced the winners of the App Star Awards, which were handed out by the startup to developers of iPhone applications who came up with some innovative tools for the platform.

Caveat: since these are upcoming apps, they aren’t available on the App Store yet. On the upside, we have demo videos.

You can find the videos of all 35 finalists of the awards here, but the three main winners are:

1. Games: Sketch Nation

Sketch Nation Shooter allows users to create their own games by drawing a player, enemies and a level on a piece of paper and taking a picture of the drawing with their iPhone camera.
