[Game] Billy - Touchscreen and Gsen enabled game

After a request over at ppcgeeks pointing to this youtube video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEwyJm4ucns
I thought I might have a go on this game for WindowsMobile. So here it is: Billy!

Billy, the haunted man, is in trouble. Balls are falling down and he has to run to avoid being crashed. It's your task to help!
Billy can be played using the HTC-GSensor or the touchscreen and should run on nearly any resolution.
Have fun and let me know what you think!
*changes*
ver 0.41
* added 1 sec startuptime to let the gameengine initialize correctly
* fixed bug with replay button not working
* fixed runtime error with exit button
* Billy now installs properly in the Program Files\Games\Billy folder

I am very curious to try this out but I got two error messages (and i tried installing to main memory and storage and got the same messages). I've attached the error reports. I'm on a Fuze (Touch pro). Any ideas?

This seems to be an error of the gameengine not initializing properly. Uploaded version 0.41, it gives another 1000 msec before the graphics display. Let me know if this works, please. Fixed two other bugs as well, see changelog.

Wow very odd game hehe, works fine on my Touch HD.
You should a option of changing the ball texture around. In the youtube vid, they had just a black halo representing the ball which could improve the performance.
Thank goodness the music can be disabled too lol
Nice work.

Feel free to change the balls, the bitmap files can be found in the game folder. It wouldn't make any difference to the performance though.
I know that the game might "stutter" a bit if to much is going on in the background (other programs running). A softrest is helpful here
... and I do really *love* that music!

I cannot run in on my Topaz... anyone can help? thank you!

What happens when you start the game?

Simple but fin. Really like it.
I have version 0.41.
I have 2 error messages on my Touch HD (see attached)...

Also, 3 more ideas to make it perfect :
1) Silent mode by default (so we can launch it and play wherever we are)
2) Some levels of difficulty in the settings
3) hmmm... Could we have Billy a little bit more bloody when he is crushed (like in the you tube video). This is so funny.
Thanks a lot * * * * *

What a fun little game thanks

how do you make a game like this acually?
I want to make some simple 3d app where i can put a 3d model in it.

Not much I can do about it atm. I know ot happens to a few people but don't have a clue why. Must have something to do with the Gameengine
not initializin correctly.

1) If you turn off the sound the game should remember the setting and starting without sound.
2) The difficulty goes up by the amount of balls you survive. (The balls come in faster). Don't think there is really a need for levels (just trying to keep the game simple )
3) I'm not tha gfx-geek myself, but feel free to add whatever you like. The graphic files can be found in the games' folder.

I use Arianesoft's Pocket Programming Language (PPL). A fine language to program 2D games for mobile devices (watch out for version 2.0 soon to come!).

well it works on my omnia but not with accelerometer only touchscreen

[GAME] Pax Britannica - one-touch real-time strategy game

Over the last 3 weeks I ported the lua code from Pax Britannica to Android. I used libgdx for that. I only implemented the two player mode so far. There are also some differences in the speed of the units. This is because of the smaller screen resolution and the so decreased distance between the factorys.
Pax Britannica is a one-touch real-time strategy game by No Fun Games. Two players battle it out underwater, struggling to be the last one standing!
How to Play
Select your ship to start a battle against the computer. Select two ships to start a local multiplayer battle.
Touching your game area (Left screen for player 1, right screen for player 2) spins the needle on the radial menu in the middle of the player's factory ship. The needle will only travel as far as the player's current resources allow. Resources (gold? seaweed? who knows!) accumulate over time.
Releasing the touch creates a ship that corresponds to the quadrant that the needle is pointing at.
Fighter: Small, fast and cheap. Great at chasing down bombers.
Bomber: Shoots slow projectiles that do massive damage to frigates or enemy factory ships!
Frigate: A great hulk of a ship that fires volleys of heat-seeking torpedoes. Effective against fighters.
Upgrade: Improve your factory ship to accumulate resources more quickly.
Ships you spawn fight automatically using the latest in artificial aquatelligence technology. The player who keeps their factory ship alive wins!
This is a complete rewrite/port of the orginal game available for Windows, Mac OS X and GNU/Linux:

made with libgdx

works very nice on my SGS2. ty!

Game looks interesting. No issues so far.

Does someone got a Motorola Defy? The Defy seems to have input problems... :/

Works well on my HD2. Very cool game. With some added multiplayer over the net would make it amazing.

works awesome on my Nexus One

Works fine on Nexus One GRJ22. Maybe our screen is a little small for this game, but that's all.

First time i've tried this game and I think it's great
I agree that multi-device multiplay would take it to a whole new level
No errors or anything so far.

This is really good, just needs better graphics

Realy cool game and works great on my desire. Need some level adjustment because it is to easy to win

I cant install on my nexus S... the market dont allow that.

What are the system requirements?

I really like the game!
It's the most simple game (control-wise) I've ever seen but I just keep playing it
- Some kind of level system would be awsome (keep upgrades but harder or different enemies fe.). At the moment it's a bit repetative vs cpu.
- Multi-device MP sounds cool.
- Could you have 3 or 4 player/cpu battles?
Keep up the good work!

Cheers!

Awesome port man. Maybe turn up the difficulty a little (same prob I have with the OG) but other then that perfect. 10/5

Fun game, really simple controls and is addictive!
I'd like to have it look nice on qHD screens though (for my phone), could you post the source for me to try doing that? Thanks!

Can it be posted on internet for multiplayer mode?

I tried it, What I did was open Chainfire 3D use the tergra files, Made sure "Disable MapBuffer emu" was ticked and then I loaded the game through 3D game converter.
EDIT: Hangs on just after burning car :/ Perhaps maybe it will work if we get a save file from just after the burning car?

I got a friend to send me a savegame after the first autosave and was able to load the save but the game still hangs after roughly the same amount of time of gameplay. Bit of a shame. Hopefully theyll update the game at some point to add support for us.

im download apk file craked and download in-game data file too, from my wifi. affter load RAM OK, ROM OK and rockstar logo appear. and then is turn off screen to black. i restart phone and did three time but nothing worked.
maybe we just need to wait an update from rockstar.
dont down load the powervr version sd data share by other website like approb. because i download and try open game but it alway ask me to download data again. i just down right version by wifi.
tell me guy! if you are lucky.

so sad, This item cannot be installed in your device's country.

My LG Optimus 3D has the King 3D rom, a patch for overclocking it at 1.18 (and not 1.2 as the rom does... it solves some problem), chainfire 3D and the nvidia plugin.
installed the [email protected] apk, downloaded the sd files directly in-game, then reeboted and executed the game using the 3D game converter.
i also ticked "Disable MapBuffer emu" on the per-app settings inside chainfire3D. (not changes at all, ive simply tried to do as DyNaMiiTe as written...)
the game starts well, i can play for a while, but it's very laggy and sometimes freezes.
i think we have to wait for an updated version from rockstar...

Got Update Right now and i can confirm GTA 3 working on our Optimus 3d now and btw dont pirate good games this game is worth all the money! Since we got the update that fast and too support the developers! Dont pirate games that are worth its money

Nop. GBA.emu uses .sgm instead .ss0 (gameboid)
Meanwhile an .isav file was created. Anyone know what is exactly?

Does this on work flawless on ics? i had several problems with gameboid...

Never had a problem with GBAoid or TigerGBA - what makes this so much better?

It's made by Robert ****in Broglia!!!! That's what makes it so much better.
I jest, I jest... I don't actually have this one yet, but I do have all of Broglia's other emulators, and I can tell you that this dude's serious about quality assurance... to a level that most other emulator devs haven't been.
Can someone who has this test the public domain GBA homebrew game Wonkie Guy? It's not even a full game, yet it's been one of my favorites for near a decade... and more importantly, every other GBA emulator I've tried curled up in fetal position and started bawling every time I tried to load it.

Brilliant. I bought his GBC and NGP emulators and they both worked flawlessly, so going to buy this to replace Gameboid. Top notch :good:

Might sound stupid but can you map the dpad to the touchpads in this emulator? - Thanks

Gameboid works good for me but my biggest problem is the graphics look blurry from the upscaling. I would buy this emulator if there is a setting which adds filters to make the games look "better"

I hate to say it but I think people should wait before buying this one. Having bought and now had a chance to test it, I consider the performance of it to be much poorer than Gameboid.
Noticeable on-screen judder during playback with frameskip enabled and slows to a crawl when frameskip is disabled. Sound isn't much better. One can only hope that this gets fixed and much improved with further updates.

The reason I bought this emulator is because all the emulators by this developer allow you to turn off the blurry graphics in the settings, unlike Gameboid and other emulators.
The emulator however is a bit slower but at 1.6GHz all games I tried were full speed to me.

Hope FPse does this (touchpad) in the future, will definitely get this app.

Question?
Does it support Netplay or emulated cable link? for example Mario Kart or Pokemon games

Games like Castlevania Aria of Sorrow, Metroid Zero Mission run laggy in GBA.emu.
In gameboid doesn't happen.

Went ahead and bit the bullet.
It plays the games that failed to load on Gameboid. I am satisfied

Glad to know it runs better overclocked for you. I don't really want to do this, so I hope the dev makes the performance seriously better than as is.

Seeing as none of his other emulators have cheat capability (if that is incorrect plz correct me) on Android OR iOS I doubt it. And I have both versions (Xperia Play and iOS {5.1.1 Jailbroken on iPhone 4S}) and often sound is a problem in some games like Sonic Advance 3 where all you hear is the music and nothing else (like jumping noises, or other collision noises) and the sound is crap without frame skip to 1.

Description
PPSSPP, a PSP emulator prototype for Android.
PPSSPP is a prototype PSP* emulator for Android (and other platforms).
It's still in very early stages and does not run many games. It's provided here if you want to try it, so that you can automatically receive updates over time - over time this will probably become a usable emulator.
Please go to http://www.ppsspp.org for more information.
IMPORTANT: Please do not give bad reviews due to low compatibility. It takes time.
NOTE: No games are included with this download, you will have to dump your own PSP games and turn them into .ISO or .CSO files, or simply play free homebrew games, which are available online.
* PSP is a trademark of Sony, Inc.

For what is seen is quite low compatibility list yet.
It is seen that only light running games with few graphics.
Let's wait and see how this project progresses.
But very good start.
Developers luck and thanks for your great work.

Looking forward to this. I just want Need for Speed Underground Rivals. The best NFS game for me so far!! Played it for nearly the whole time my missus was in labour with my boy, 20+ hours!!!

Guys, if this runs with little lag on some guys and tons of lag on other games, imagine what it's like on the S3.
And good job to the dev. Time to test out some games.
