Games for the Omnia

[Phantom27]

Ok... I wanted to start a thread where users could post good Omnia games for other users. The reason that I'm starting this is because DJRedLine posted the files for HTC Teeter and I installed it. I love this game!!! Then syrguy1969 posted that he had a game called Resco Bubbles that was similar. I downloaded the trial for that game and love it as well (wish I could convince my wife to let me buy the full version).

Anyway... Let's post files and links to games that we know work well on the Omnia and are fun.
______________________________________________

1.) HTC Teeter **Thanks to DJRedLine**

A tilt game where you get the steel ball down a hole while avoiding other holes.



Install .net 3.5 (Look in this Post http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=51532)
Extract the HTC.zip into your windows directory (contains needed accelerometer files)
Install Teeter - HTC_Teeter_by_Swtos.cab
Extract Teeterpatch.zip onto phone then overwrite the files into teeter installation directory

2.) Resco Bubbles (Trial Version) **Thanks to syrguy1969**

Great tilt game where you pop bubbles in the correct order with a ball bearing. Similar to Teeter.

Here is the link to the official Resco site:

Install the bubbles_p.arm.cab file

3.) Lightsaber **Thanks to DJRedLine**

I haven't tried this one yet, sounds like an interesting program so I included it.



Install the Lightsaber_1.0.CAB file

I can't post links to these, persay, but I can verify that there is a working version of Asphalt 4 that works with the accelerometer of the Omnia without modification.

Marble Worlds 2 also works, using the HTC emu files.

My faves (where you need to have WVGAFix3 installed I have noted with a [W]):

Scrobble 1.2 = Best freeware Scrabble-type game out there. Good dictionaries. Opponent plays decently. Can handle multiple human players. Graphics are nice. You do have to scroll around using the D pad to go over the whole board, but not a huge problem. Link = http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...light=scrobble

Pocket Uno = Brilliant version of Uno. Computer opponents are quite adept at beating the human player. Freeware. See below post for link.

The Quest [W] = Quite simply the best fantasy RPG made for a cell phone. Amazing graphics, smooth play, immersive world, many of the same features as the hit game Oblivion (i.e. alchemy), nice skill-based and class-based system. Shareware. Link = http://www.redshift.hu/

Pocket Mille Bournes = An addictive game, I have always liked Mille Bournes and this is the best freeware version I have seen. Decent computer players with decent tactics.

Pocket RackO = RackO is an amazingly simple game to learn and very difficult to master. Well done. Freeware. See below post for link.

MBPokerPro = 7 card stud for the PPC. The graphics have a problem when trying to display the card faces with the suites as symbols, but they are clean when you switch to a letter and number interface (i.e. instead of a 7 of hearts showing as an actual heart shape and a 7, it shows as 7H). Good computer play, and each of the other computer players has a different personality, so you have to be able to read your opponents! Freeware. files uploaded.

P.S. quick request....can we try to post the files, or even just the link to these games as we mention them? I am interested in a couple devinc posted, and it just makes it easier on members!! Thanks

Here is the Rack-O link + file as well (I was curious)!!!!

Marble Worlds 2

Official Website:
http://www.4pockets.com/product_info.php?p=108

I installed this game prior to installing the HTC Accelerometer files and the 'tilt' didn't work. Then I installed the htc.zip files from the first post and it worked.



I've attached the cab file for the demo

Cruncher is a numbers game where you have to clear the screen by moving only higher numbers over lower ones.
Caver uses the tilt function and is basically a ball that you must guide through a series of caves.

[DJRedLine]

Pocketsand - different flowing sand drops from top of screen and can be interacted with certain elements.
Project Gotham - self explanatory

[DJRedLine]

JBlend - Install this to your storage card then soft reset
this then allows you to install Java games to your storage card instead of main memory, meaning saving space.

[syrguy1969]

DJRedLine....thanks for posting all those games...I have a couple questions though... The PocketSand game...does that work well on the Omnia? I tried that a while back on my 700wx and all it did was show the flowing sand and block out the rest of the device, causing a reset.

Do you know a good source of java games? I did the JBlend install, but don't have any games handy (yes, I will search, but I was hoping you had a good site to start us out on ).

P.S. The caver game was written by Ageye the same developer that brought us G-Alarm (fantastic alarm clock) and a few other apps, including a profile switcher he JUST started. Anyway....cager and another game he wrote (G-Invaders) alond with his other apps and support can be found at this site for all interested:

Yeah Pocketsand does work quite well, it fits full screen with the controls on the bottom.

Most of my Java games i found either on here or on Modaco's forum. Not found any that i really keep yet though.

I use G-Alarm all the time and is highly recommended. G-Invaders i have used but not installed since latest hard reset to phone.
