SKLabelNode not showing up on screen

in a private interface

   @property BOOL contentCreated

And then in the implementation

//just like in Apple's example project

- (void)didMoveToView: (SKView *) view {
   if (!self.contentCreated) {
       [self createSceneContents];
       self.contentCreated = YES;
   }
}

- (void)createSceneContents {
    self.backgroundColor = [SKColor whiteColor];
    self.scaleMode = SKSceneScaleModeAspectFill;
    SKLabelNode *newGameNode = [[SKLabelNode alloc] initWithFontNamed:
        @"Helvetica"];
    newGameNode.name = @"NewGame";
    newGameNode.text = @"New Game";
    newGameNode.fontSize = 30;
    newGameNode.fontColor = [SKColor whiteColor];
    newGameNode.position = CGPointMake(100, 100);
    [self addChild:newGameNode];
}

but when I run, nothing shows up on the screen. What am I doing wrong?

It's because you are displaying white text on a white background. Try this:

newGameNode.fontColor = [SKColor blackColor];
