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.

features

-advanced pokemon center
Download link:
http://www.multiupload.com/2M729483GB
NOTE:
this may have some bugs so please , let me know. and im sure i can fix them.
downloading now
Loved your first Pokemon game, so def downloading this!
It's a series that I like ...!
Congratulations, I download it and you notice that such...
in this version my pikachu cant level up, and theres no "story" (dialogues) yet, eg in the arena.
i really liked your first game, and i am looking forward to the second one, but it is kind of annoying that you have to click so often after you defeated a pokemon.
maybe you could change that a bit.
ok, so i gotta say that i am really happy with the way this game has turned out, im not sure if you want this as a report the bugs thread or not, but i will post a couple that ive found so far, the poke mart says the pokeballs are 200$ but when you buy them they actually cost 300.00 in the beginning story, professor is spelled wrong, when you kill another pokemon, enemy is spelled wrong..
when you finish off an opponent, maybe make a menu that lists all thing thins accomplished in that last battle rather than having to press ok 3-4 times.
but so far, this is great progress, cant wait to see the next version!
Thanks for your feedback.. i was little annoyed when i realised that i made such silly mistakes. keep telling about the bugs and problems. its helping me, get better

Didn't test your game yet, but I will as soon as I get a computer with my phone's drivers on it ^^
One remark, do you have the right to use the Pokemon name and pictures in your game ? That could end in legal issues if not, and I don't think you'd want that ^^
I want to test it, but can you make it working in portrait mode? That way I can test it on my android tablet. (android 2.2, folio 100).
It works ONLY in portrait mode

Your game's name is "Pokemon". I think this is a registered trademark :/
And fan made pictures can be illegal too ^^ (but on that part i'm not sure)

But good work
Desire HD, Tapatalk
nice
its a raly nice game love both u first and this one, only bad thing in this one is that when u attack a pokemon and win it comes up alot of popups, can u put all those in one so it goes smother to play and dont have to click OK so many times and maby miss click i love ur games!
ohh, can't wait to download!
Great idea
In addition to the mispellings that were mentioned above.. pikachu and pidgey are also spelled wrong..
Dialogs are a bit annoying.
Don't expect this to last long if Nintendo catch wind of it.
Also, force closes every time when entering online battle on HTC Desire (2.26.841.2)

I wish that were true, but that didn't stop Square from shutting down the Chrono Trigger remake.
Do you guys think we will get '9mm' optimized for our Plays?
The game is available for iPhone, iPod and iPad today, and and gameloft says that the game will come to Android soon. What do you think?
Youtube video
I would love to play this on my Play with real controls :d
i hope we do. i got it on my iphone 4 and love it. it woukd be great to try with the controller
Haha just the other day I was looking for this game for Android and came to the same conclusion as you.
I'm pretty sure they'll optimize it, since they already have a lot of games with working stuff, except the sliding aiming pad which sucks hard IMO.
Let's hope they don't take too long to release it.

I think it works pretty good with the right settings and some training
Maybe I'm not used to it yet, right now I play NOVA2 from time to time and even if I try to move just a little bit and barely move my thumb I never get precise aiming - far objectives where they aren't auto-aimed.
Who really cares about gameloft games 3/4 of them suck the controls are just terrible I hope that some other game developer jumps on this phone and starts making games cause I refuse to pay for a game that doesn't even control properly. DARK in my opinion is the best shooter this phone has

I hope so.I thought the game look alright
I really hope they do, but with the time taken to port order and chaos (1 month so far and still not officially available) I think we will be left behind or wont get it at all, lets hope they start taking it seriously. Why not just allow us to set our own controls, open it up and let me set hardware buttons to anything I want

I love most gameloft games - they have their faliures, but they create decent games across multiple platforms and multiple devices at a very reasonable price point. Plus if you have any problems they are very helpful and will give out free games as compensation.

There you go again. Stop with the personal attacks. People are entitled to their opinions and not everything is Daises and Roses. If you can take the bad with the good then maybe you should be the one to go away.
We are all adults and come here to discuss gaming and the Play. If enough people complain and someone from Gameloft reads it then maybe they will do something about it. You are not the Forum police so please stop the personal attacks.
Or are you a Dev from Gameloft and can’t take the feedback?

If people dont like gameloft games, don't buy them, the only way gameloft will get the message is when they get there bank statement XDA is about sharing ideas and experiences, not moaning about the same thing every day on every single thread, this thread is about the possibility of 9mm for the play, no1 cares what thatsupnow thinks of gameloft, it's not even relevent to the thread, and to be honest we have all heard what he has to say, again and again and again .......
"If people dont like gameloft games, don't buy them, the only way gameloft will get the message is when they get there bank statement "
Not really. Just like Call of Duty BO people buy it anyway. BO was the only game I have ever sold. I keep my games no matter what. People don't know the controls suck if they are not told. And after you buy the games it's too late.

What's the thread title? It's certainly not "What's your opinion on Gameloft games controls". I agree with the other guys. I own like 5 gameloft games, I know damn well that some of them suck balls for controls, I don't need to see it everywhere on these forums, only in appropriate places. This thread is about a single game, 9mm, which isn't even out for Android yet so you have no idea how it controls on the Play.

watch the tags of the official trailer and you'll find "sony", "ericsson", "xperia" and "play"
i think now it's clear whether it will be released on xplay or not

It says Minecraft has been released. We all know that's not true and it's just a SE mistake, but look AT THAT: Dead Space for XPlay? OH MY GOD!
They must have mixed up Bad Company 2 with Minecraft.
Because BC2 is still in "Up Coming"
Z OH MY F******* GOD !!!!!!!!
Thank your for showing me that page, since I was looking EVERYWHERE for info on Dead Space. I even asked 2 guys at EA for info, but hey never answered.
Now I can die as a happy man
I know this thread is about Minecraft, but hell...Dead Space on the iPhone is such a DAMN good game ... I'm gonna buy it 5 times at launch just to make sure I realy have it.

Weeee, a Dead Space fan.
The iPhone version is a whatever, due to the lack of controls, but the XPlay one will be awesome due to the PS controls. I can't wait for the release... also, NP.
The controls weren't THAT bad, but yeah ... I hate playing smartphones games with the touchscreen (at least those serious games like Dead Space or Bad Company 2) that's why I bought the Play. I hope EA is making the camera controls like Bad Company 2. If they do, than I guess we are going to have one hell of a game for the Play.

Is this price confirmed? and what if I already have an account would I need to buy the seperate pocket edition?
7$ is a bit expensive knowing the fact that the PC version for Creative is free.
Yeah but the beta version is 15 $ I think

yeah but that is for the survival monster version.
Not sure If I am that excited ever since I found out it was just the creative version.
will minecraft be out by end of this month?
Been dying to try it out since I saw the video by mojang...
Though I'm pretty upset that it's not going to come with creepers...
keep an eye on the flexion store for Dead Space! Im sure we will see it sooner rather than later!
Hi guys. I'm new here. I'm young developer from Poland. I have 17 years and my passion is playing guitar and making games. Joe The Runner is my first android game. Just run, jump and slide. I don't know if it don't have bugs because i dont have enought phones to test it ;/. If you will find any bugs please dont rate 1/5 . Give some info about error in this thread and you can be sure i will fix it. In game there is no annoying ads. The only ad is show when you press button: "FREE COINS FOR ADS" . You can buy 2 more champions in game with this coins but you can't buy coin with real money. You must run 400m = 1 coin or fastest way added in this update(1.16) watch ad and get 4 coins. I know that this app isn't some super ultra giga awesome app but It's my first app and i hope you like it. Like my friends said: "It's good when you taking a s**t "
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Wolvboar.JoeTheRunner
Good job on your first game. If I come across any bugs I will let you know.
Hello
Hi
I am new to the whole programming and android thing, so I thought I would look at some games that other developers have made. Before sharing my game since I'm quite shy . So putting aside as to how terrible I am at your game (played it for 30 mins never made it past 250m.. -_-'), I did spot some bugs, for one when you do watch the 15 sec video, you don't actually get the 4 coins straight away, you have to click something in order for the counter to be updated. Another bug is that when you are running the amount of meters run is a bit to the right that it gets clipped off the screen. Not a bug, more of a critique but I wish that the controls were more responsive, I feel like when I jump there is a delay. But I also have a question, what is the point of have a link to your game page on your screen?
Thanks for good words and bugs. I check this and on my xperia e I dont have any delay but on faster Landvo l500s i have. It must be something with fps. I will check it tomorrow because today im really tired ;/ With this 4 gold i notice this and fix it already but i want to fix all bugs before i will update this on google play. And... what link? I Don't be shy. We cant be shy in game development if we want some people to play our games. I'm new on this forum but what i can see now this community is awesome and I should come here earlier. Again thanks guys for your good words and support it's really nice to see people playing game you made
1DEA If you have game and you too shy to post it here you can add testers in google play dev console. I can help you test your game if you want
Good job and i say You made a nice game ^^
Bigggg thanks!!!
