Billy - TouchScreen and GSen enabled game

zehlein · #1 (**permalink**) 04-30-2009, 03:49 PM

After a request in this forum that mentioned a IPhone game called "Falling Balls" and a look at a video showing the game in action, I thought it was simple enough to be ported to WindowsMobile.

You control Billy, the poor haunted man by tilting your device and should guide him as long as possible through all those flying balls without being hit. That's all about it - have fun and enjoy!

Edit: most recent version 0.4 can be found here.

zplit · #6 (**permalink**) 04-30-2009, 05:15 PM

That's strange. Do you get the filename of the image in the message as well? If so, is the mentioned image located in the executables folder?

Ok, guys!

For your eternal pleasure this is Billy (The haunted man) version 0.31!

What changed?

* should be playable on nearly every resolution now (QVGA,VGA,WVGA)
* playable with touchscreen - so non HTC-devices can get the fun!
* has a nice HilliBilly sound now
* game gets harder the more points you earned

There willbe a version 0.4 with a tiny menu to pause/resume game and turn music on/off. HighScores will be saved for further show off

*Credits*

Thanks for the game it is fun. but on my omnia the g-sensor does not work is it only coded for the htc?

GSen control is HTC only at the moment. I don't have access to an Omnia and therfore can't build in Omnia support.
