Default Porting pc games to iphone

I have a pc and the game portal. Is there software i can use to port it to iphone or will i have to rewrite all the code and redesign the parts. I saw an example of the finished game done in unity but i cant contact the creators

If the game is in C/C++, then it should be easier to port. As you can build straight in C++ with minimal Objective C. My game, Turtle Trench is almost entirely C++ & Open GL ES, which is what I'm comfortable with making games on PC and other platforms.

But otherwise, depends how much platform-specific code you have. i.e. Screen Resolutions, whether you're using DirectX, Open GL, or another API/Framework. Some of these things, no matter how you do your port, you will have to do some work.

But there's probably some libraries/frameworks that make it easier, especially if you built your original version using them, instead of tying your code up with platform specific native calls.
