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

care to enlighten me?
*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.

WOW and I thought I was the only one that remembered the old BBS days... Remember legend of the dragon?
hey this space trader game is just like dope wars!!!
OK, so I got my hands on the Japanese version of Animal Forest. I patched it to english and uploaded it for all. Played about 10 minutes and talking to neighbours and the map and all is perfect. Main problem is the menu graphical glitch but its not a game over job. Bar this, It works well in N64oid v2.03. Say thanks if you appreciate it.
EDIT: Sorry guys, didn't realise what I was doing, twas a late night! Anyways, if you want the link, PM me!

Well it's legal to download if you own the real game.
Think of it as a store with kitchen knifes, you can't forbid the store from selling knife just because you can kill a person with it. Do you see what I mean?

Dpwnloading is still illegal (in pretty much all countries). You have to make the backup yourself (and there is hardware for that for nearly all consoles, I guess since animal forest came on cd's it's easier then most games. Got a regular n64 and a snes backup unit though ). It is legal to just share the patch (assuming the patch maker allows it) with the tools to patch the rom.
Only the patch is legal to distribute.

+1 .........
2nd app release for me.. I used to play this great BBS game called legend of the red dragon (lord) and yes, showing my age on this one
Anyway, created an api, installed the game on my server and then created the app.
Its free too.. has 2 inapp purchases but not required for game play..(remove ads/buy extra gold)
Some details:
The premise of LORD is that a Red Dragon is wreaking havoc in a town where the player has recently arrived. Multiple players compete over a period of weeks to advance their skills and to kill the dragon. In order to achieve this goal, players must face combat to gain experience. Once they have gained enough experience, they must face their master at Turgon's Warrior Training and advance in skill level. Advancement presents stronger enemies and masters; a player must reach level 12, the final level, before challenging Turgon himself and attacking the dragon.
As a BBS game, LORD uses a text-only interface.

Any feedback guys?

So many fond memories of LORD.
Installing LOBD right now, will try it out on my lunch break
Recommendation for your next app: Swords of Chaos, another great fantasy BBS RPG
(Or alternatively, Planets - LORD in Space!)
We should be able to press/click on a players name and see some info about them. Whatever our character would see just by looking at them( if they are heavily armed, strong, fast...etc). Maybe an avatar too.
I was a lord master. I could rise to the top so quickly admin reset the server due to complaints I was 'hacking'.
I loved renaming the strongest weapon in the game to "a stick". Probably why people thought I was hacking. Loved lord and am now getting into this blue dragon game.
Keeps saying that my session timed out

Im glad you like the game.
I just tested and the game seems ok for me.
thanks
Fun game. Finding the options are too small. I was fighting a higher level enemy and was almost about to win when I accidentally tapped run vs fight. They are too small and close together to easily select things. In the weapons and armor stores you have buttons. Perhaps buttons for fight and run in a row, then automatic options in the next row?
Pretty cool game. I like it. Its simple and I didn't want to put it down last night.
G2x - 2.3.7 CM7
Transformer - 3.2 Revolver OC/UV
Not avalible in your country prf... ( serbia)
Where i can download LOBD?
Loved lord. I was just a kid but that game was sweet! Looking forward to trying this one out

Google.. working to get it back in the market.. I am attaching it here for you though. This is also the newest version. I have started the process of putting most of my apps on amazon since google basically can close your account for zero reason and no recourse but send them email which will go unanswered.. sorry.. a bit pissed about the whole situation.
Before your reply i pulled the apk and emailed it to myself.
What's the difference between my ooold version and this?
(downloads before answer anyway)

I removed option to remove remove ads via purchase and the ability to buy gold both of which used inapp purchases but since google screwed me.. I am releasing it to amazon which does not support google inapp purchase.
Its been over a week that google killed my account and still no reply to my question of why.
I usually don't geek over these little pick up and play type games, but Rolando 2 happens to be the one and only game from iPhone that's A) Worth playing, and B) has (well... had) no Android counterpart.

Got the tilt controls and everything so I can have the best of both worlds!
Its very buggy...

Umm...who denied that? All my post noted was that most of whats worth playing on iOS typically ends up on android. You've misread something if you think I meant iOS has nothing worth playing.

looks pretty cool. thanks for the share
Any other feedback on the game?
Doesn't look anything like Rolando, especially the incredible Rolando 2 (correctly identified as one of iOS' best games!, althoguh they get hundreds worth playing we don't )
I'll download and install when I am home this afternoon and post some feedback
It's buggy as hell !
It's crap.
Tried it, could not figure out what was so great about collecting coins, uninstalled.
Its only redeeming quality is that it's free, so it will only cost you your time if you want to try it.
Two comments about how buggy it is.. maybe I'll just install it and wait till there's an update before testing!
Edit: Just saw the above - will avoid.
Comparing a crap game to the amazing Rolando 2, tut tut! Is the OP the developer?

Nah, I wouldn't have let it slide in it's current state.
And people... remember that my props were for it's concept only. Check my Play Store review (from before I even posted this) and you'll see that I even cited that the game had some probs that needed to be sorted out.
Looks more like Bounce On 1. Would love Bounce on 2 to be released on Xperia play
Gimme LocoRoco and I'll be happy. That's never going to happen, though.

Hey, I'm the developer of StarRaider. I know it is not the greatest game ever, its buggy and seriously s**t from a code perspective. I will probably make it ad free soon, call it "beta", add some promised features and just leave it be. I understand that some of you people will find it crap, but when I started working on it, I was a noob in android development. Those 7 months of development taught me many things, so any future games will be much better. I still appreciate the feedback
I'm a casual gamer. Now and again I'll find a game that I like and I'll play for a while until I get bored. I don't mind paying for games but what I hate is games that have in-app purchases which make you spend way more than the game is ever worth to be able to advance.
I'm currently playing Real Racing 3 and what I'm looking for is a "little extra help" to advance without paying out any more than I already have.
Ages ago I used a tool called GameCIH which allowed editing of files to increased money/gold/time etc etc, but it doesn't appear to work on my N5.
A quick search via Google has sent me to all manner of shady sites, offering tools that claim to do what I want, but I don't trust a single one I've visited.
Is there anyone who knows of a good cheat app/engine or can point me in the right direction from first hand knowledge? As I said, I am perfectly capable of using Google, but I don't want to trawl through these sites (which all seem to want you to complete surveys to earn them money, before serving you up a virus-laden download.
Thanks.
Game Guardian works on 4.4. Not sure if it works for Real Racing 3 though. I've only used it to edit the amount temple run 2 coins.
Thanks, I'll check it out and report back

I think what your talking about is similar, but on iPhone, there was a basic cheat device app for jailbreak that allowed you to edit values (kinda like a gameshark or action replay) that I liked to use sometimes in my own single player games (usually do infinite gold in RPG's. not a fan of grinding anymore lol) is there something similar for android, and if so, is there more advanced options than what iPhone offered (which was basic values).
I used I hex editor to allow me to change the values of the coins and money

GG worked nicely!
I posted in this forum rather than one of the higher level Android ones because I wanted advice from someone who is actually using the same device/software version as me, and could make suggestions based on actual knowledge - rather than someone who isn't, and could only make suggestions based on assumptions.
Worked out as I intended, because Epic_VS' suggestion about Game Guardian was exactly right.

Thanks for asking this question; I never would have thought to do this.
I don't mind paying for in-app purchases, but it was much to my dismay to discover that RR3 does NOT have a cloud save, so the cars I had worked up to on my old device were nowhere to be found on my Nexus. There's NO excuse for a game to have IAP yet not allow you to back up your save info.
You've saved me a lot of grinding for free gold!

When I first installed RR3 I was given $750M and 550M of the other currency. I don't know how it happened but I'm not complaining. I will never have to spend a dime on the game and I can level up all my cars the moment I unlock them I still suck at it though lol
