hi all,
i was wondering if there is an EPL App? Live scores, updates etc
anybody???
thanks
You would think there would be a live score app by now, but no.
Anyway, you can try using http://iphone.livescore.com from Opera. Not 100% perfect, but it works.
Yep, having my mates stick their flashy iPhone Sky Sports app in my face all the time is getting annoying!
Here is a good one, I use.
FotMob 3.0
http://www.mobilefootie.com/
Yea this is the only other thing I want on my phone Shame there are no graphically nice apps for this.
I second that !!!
This is chargeable (ok only a fiver for the year) and if I'm gonna pay I want it to look good like the iPhone ones...
I love my HD2 and more and more apps are looking better and better but even the crap ones on iPhone look polished!
wish I could code well enough to write one ...

Totally Agree
Viigo for WM.
Not as aesthetically pleasing as most, and doesn't give very much info about the matches, but its free.
Not very hard to get it customized to what you want to have on there - League Standings, Completed games scores, Live Scores, League schedule.
You can also put links to ur fave teams for updates about injuries, interviews with players/managers etc.
Can't show link as i'm a new member but just search Viiigo for windows mobile on google. You can download it straight from the windows mobile website free.
I use TeamStats.

Ive used team stats for a while, and while it does exactly what its supposed to, it looks like total crap! My boss, a few of my mates and my GF's Dad all have iphones with the sky sports app and theirs not only gives them all the info they need but it also looks nice too.
Why do we never see things like this for our much better in every way devices?
I personally would love a Sky Sports Score Centre App. To be perfectly honest, Sky Sports Score Centre is the only thing i envy Iphone users for.
I have in the past sent numerous emails to certain email addresses within the Sky Sports and Sky company asking if it is in development and its ETA, and if not, requesting a WM Skysports Score Centre App, but have never once received a reply about it.
Unfortunately, to me this suggests no Sky Sports Score Centre for us :-( Ofc, this is just my opinion based around the fact I have sent 20+ emails querying it and never having received a reply about it so I may be wrong.

this would be awesome...can't someone port it from the iphone app?
if i had a slight bit of know how i would do it lol
Yeh same. I don't know if it is that simple though.
There are other things out there such as tvcatchup.com Iphone App which i'm sure someone would have just done the same with that rather than having to ask TV catch up to make us a specific app if it was a simple job.
Sent another email to Sky today... to which i got a reply!! An automated response saying they would get back to me soon... Maybe we will have a final answer soon as to whether we will get Sky Sports Score Centre
Just heard back from Sky about a WM App for Sky Sports Score Centre and unfortunately doesn't currently look good for us getting an app like that of the Iphone. Boooo to Sky
Dear Mr Timms
Thank you for your email regarding Sky Mobile TV
At this time there has not been any speculation that an App for a Windows based mobile is being designed and if there was we would not be able to comment until an official release launch had be made.
I trust this information assists, however, should you require any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact our team on the above email address.
Kind regards

For those of you that remember Space Trader for the Palm OS, there is a newly released beta version called Dark Nova.
http://code.google.com/p/dark-nova-android/wiki/BetaInstructions
I am not affiliated with these guys, just posting about one of the greatest games ever made. It is still in beta, and needs some work, but still, best game I have ever played.
hmm.. seems a lot like DopeWars but with some space-style graphics and more confusing gameplay.
This one has potential but they have a LOOOONG way to go before they will have a polished game ready for the masses.
There is no native way to close the game, going to different menus opens layers of windows which started fc'ing on me. After about 6 fc's I was back at the main commander screen.
Even if it doesn't fc you still just go back one page if you hit the back button so if you warp to another planet and hit the back button then you are instantly back where you started??
Good start though. Now that they've proven their concept I hope they make a game out of it

*edit- I played it for 10 minutes or so and found several things that are almost identical to DopeWars. Buying and selling stuff, buying and equipping weapons, traveling and being stopped by a raiding party, the bank...
Seems like a very similar concept to me..

Its what I said it was. SPACE TRADER. It was a game built for the Palm OS and kicked major ass. I guess you could find similarities with dope wars, but it is different.
And yes, it is still in beta. The more people that help out, the quicker it gets polished. It is brand spanking new. If you ever played Space Trader, you would certainly LOVE this game, as I believe it is an exact replica, but with better graphics, and I think they added more missions.
it is similar to dopewars. jsut because it is set and space and has some diffrences does not mean he isnt right.
Its nto a bad start for a beta, i am sure the origonal was great and fans of it will liek this.
you dont have to get defensive though when someone differs with your opinion or compares it to something else

I said you can find similarities, and we both said it has its differences. I don't think I was being defensive. Plus, if you never played the original, and haven't really played it, I don't think you have standing to compare it really. You can speculate, but at least say "never played it, but seems similar to this...".
Would you say all FPS's are the same? Probably not...I think you see what I am trying to say.
Dude, are you paid by the devs to post these bs responses? Man, if they're similar, they're similar. Get over it. You just said u weren't being defensive and continued with another defensive post.
And yes, all fpses have obvious similarities and that's why they fit into the fps genre. It's not like the dude called it a dopewars RIP or clone.
All spelling errors thanks to xt9 on my Evo!
you are being defensive again. I acctually have played the origonal i played this and see that is is the same game as origonal however the new interface is cluncky and there are TONS of fcs. No one said it is the same. We said it was similar and under your new criteria i CAN say that. I hope they can make it work and make the FCs go away and the interface a little more polished.
i wouldnt say all FPS are the same but i would say they are all similar.
I'm not sure if this is a zone defense or a 3-4 he is running..All I'm seeing is blitzing!!
ROFL, paid by the devs. Yeah....I get .00001cent for every download lol. Sorry folks. LAST TIME I will ever post any new beta that is out there. My fault for assuming people with too much time on their hands could be mature!
Middle Earth (the original) Space trader, as well as Dope wars, were once Amiga CNet BBS addon games in the late '80s - '90s. They were also made into "doors" addon games for IBM BBS, back in the days before the WWW. Similar and fun. Though you played against other people and only had one turn every 24hrs..

Seriously bro, calm down. Or just stop posting. You are the only one in this thread who has not been mature about YOUR thread.. I thought it was a decent start of a game. My comparison to DopeWars was a compliment, DopeWars is a classic and I restore it everytime I flash a new rom
I think there is a lot of potential for this game. I would suggest that you follow your own advice about not posting about any more beta software if you can't handle a little feedback that isn't "LIKE ZOMG WHERE HAZ THIZ GAME BEEN ALL MY LIF3??!!"
I'm glad they ported your favorite game of all time to the EVO and I hope it matures into a paid-on-the-market worthy game..

DOOD, My first DopeWars experience was on my Ti-83!! Damn those were the days.
I remember how freaking revolutionary it felt the first time Sierra built mouse control into a King's Quest game (I think it was KQ5?)
*edit- I just realized that was you! Looks like that crack in the case was a legit beef I got mine replaced, crack free!

If you like Space Trader, I highly recommend checking out similar games all based on Elite.
I sense a lot of chaffing in here. Everyone take a minute to go look in the mirror and remind yourself somebody out there loves you.

Haha! i guess i'm not the only one who noticed that!! If i can remember right, there were android notification sounds too.... right???
We had the world premier of that movie at my work (CT Science Center) and i totally noticed that..... I would have taken a picture but I probably would have been beat down by at least 12 security people.
Hey Guys,
Really loving this community! We released this game on the market last Thursday and only have 12 downloads ATM! We must have screwed something up royally but the only feedback we've had so far has been positive. Perhaps its the name of the game? Or maybe the graphics just look terrible, or what?
Any new name suggestions?
Thanks for any feedback you have!
Erik
Checked it out. I can see where it would be addicting and I'll likely keep it. Honestly though if I wouldn't have stumbled upon your thread here and came across it on the market, I would have never downloaded it. Icon is good but I think the name is what would make me skip it. I don't have any specific suggestions, just try to be a bit more descriptive of what the point is in the title. Also, the menu is a little hard to read and could be confusing for some people I guess. Hope I helped!

The "Fun for all ages" and "Cute fun" text makes me kinda go "eww, a family-friendly game". I think it'd be better off without it at all. A description of what you actually do in the game would be helpful, too.
You cant read the font on LDPI and I would agree with the change of title.
I've not played the game and I don't need too to form an opinion. That is the biggest problem with this game and any game for that matter. People do judge games by their "cover" until of course they get big enough to be talked about/reviewed etc.
It seems to me that you're not really sure who you are aiming the game at. You use graphics that imply this is aimed at 9 year old girls but the language is for geeky teenage boys (and older) with terms like "Rockstah bunneh," or something to that effect.
Look at the comments you have so far (assuming they are not your friends!) They all use wording such as "so cute" "adorable." If this is the route you want to go down then you need to go the whole hog and really target the one specific market.
It takes something very special to appeal to everyone and it may be unrealistic to try on your first game (assuming it is.)
Now I don't mean to sound harsh or overly critical, but this is a game I would never dream of downloading and it appears i'm not alone. With a few tweaks here and there I still wouldn't download it but maybe another demographic would and you could be very successful.
As a final note I could be talking rubbish as I have no particular expertise in the area and your only problem is getting your game recognised in an already over crowded market.
Good luck.

Hello everyone. Firstly i checked it out and have an idea i think you must add an option like using sensors to control the game and maybe the font can be changed.
Maybe then i can help better with my ideas.
Good luck.

This is perfect feedback! Thanks
Now that you said it, I wouldn't ever download a family game either!
I think it was this game i saw on the market this weekend. I was searching for games to play since i had gotten a new ROM and wanted to settle in. I saw the name, saw the icon and the first thought through my mind was "it's probably a little kids game" and instantly just ignored it. I can see how the icon would match the game itself, but the name is just... ehh...
We updated the name and feature graphic. Keep the feedback coming and feel free to make it brutal!
Hopefully with the humor on the graphic people won't think its just for kids?
Just tried it. The game itself is nicely made, but it's not the type of game i would normally play. I see that you have changed some stuff (but not released the update yet) so i can't say if it's better after the changes, but one thing is sure, it needs so much more blood. I want the bunnies to pop like a balloon when they fall to their death.
Fine, i'm joking. Or not?

Hey there, sorry for you, but dont give up.
I am pretty sure its the bunny on the icon and the first splash screen. It neither sweet nor serious. Its rather a bit scary. ;-)
Try to change this. In my view the little bunnies ingame are sweeter than the one in the icon.
Good luck!

I agree in title change too. Don't give up, the market is also not über easy to find new games sometimes cause they get lost in the sauce quickly.
MoPhoACTV Initiative
Use proper English in the description, call it something catchy instead like Foxes'n'Bunnies (REALLY bad example I know, but you can most likely catch my drift), and I would make a more rounded corner icon
I know others have mentioned it, but I'm throwing another vote in for a change to the title and the general copy of the description.
Currently, the description is vague and comes across as unprofessional. The description gives little information about the mechanics of the game, or even the style of gameplay (does it resemble a puzzle game? A 2D side-scroller? Is it controlled by tilt? Touch?). More information would be useful. The writing itself resembles internet memes more than a game advertisement. General touches such as cleaning up the writing (and perhaps removing the speech bubble over the rabbit's head; it looks like it was done in paint) can go a long way towards conveying professionalism from the developers, which helps consumers to trust both your legitimacy, and the legitimacy of the app. I looked over your website, and it does a solid job of being professional. The design seems reasonable (though I'm not a designer), and the writing is fine. This makes the copy that appears in the description somewhat more puzzling.
That said, it seems like you're on to some good things, and I have a great deal of respect for developers who turn to the community and look for honest feedback in order to improve. Thanks for all your hard work; I'll be keeping an eye out for your future projects. Good luck!
I would give it a better name, the current name isnt very easy to remember. A good name will help your game spread by word of mouth since people will be able to rattle off the name easier.
I'm not sure how app makes market their games, just getting it out here on XDA helps. You could start a thread over in the Android App Devs section if you havent already for your app. Theres a lot of apps out there and its hard to get something new noticed.
Definitely not my type of game. I'm 31 years old and write like a normal human being. I never understood the writing style in the game. It sounds like a 12 year old wrote it. If you took the physics behind the game and made another game themed around something artsy (check out a game called quell) you may get a different response.
I'd step away from the drawing board for a week our so and find someone artsy can look at the objective and build a different theme around it.
I have a few suggestions that may help you get attention.
1.) Better name. "Outfoxed" would be an excellent name.
out·fox
verb /ˌoutˈfäks/
outfoxed, past participle; outfoxed, past tense; outfoxes, 3rd person singular present; outfoxing, present participle
Defeat or deceive (someone) by being more clever or cunning than they are; outwit
2.) You must have a catchy description. "Outfox the sly fox before you become his next lunch."
3.) Please remove the baby talk and "internet meme" phrases. Most people wouldn't understand it and the ones that do would just get annoyed by it. It completely ruins it for most of us.
4.) While the newer icon is better, it still needs work. Try outlining the rabbit with a thicker black line in order to make it pop more. It blends into the background too much as it is.
5.) Social networking. Advertise your game on Twitter/Facebook/Google+. It wouldn't hurt to create a small website with a link to the Google Play download.
6.) Fix the menu screen. That font is terrible on the eyes. Clean it up and make it look more professional. The whole app screams "Coding 101 class project". Take some notes from the successful developers.
You have a good start, but without that extra push it will never go anywhere.
awesome awesome awesome feedback!
Thank you guys so much! We will remove the LOLCats speak, I didn't realize its like baby talk but I guess it makes sense.
Outfoxed! That's not bad
This app is pretty amazing for anyone who goes to a theater to see a movie...I use it every time I go...if I have to pee or if the wife wants something to eat it becomes useful....not well known at all so figured I would share... even if you go once in a blue moon its a small app that is useful for any movie...
