hey guys heres my first diamond app im going to make a few games that use the tilt sensor i have a few weeks free soon so keep all them ideas coming
it just simulates a bunch of differently sized balls but its cool (try it in a car with it being held flat) lol

Link not working
same for me, looks like the three dots should be replaced with something
the link is wrong,
i was hoping this was going to be kind of like the magic8 ball thing but using the g-sensor... oh well

Hey all, I recently posted a game utilizing the 3D capabilities of the G1 to the Marketplace called Flyer.
It's a game where you fly around as a jet and try to destroy enemy jets.
It's currently in a very early build but is up so I can get feedback now, when it's easy to change things.
How to play:
Hold the phone sideways in front of you(in landscape mode)
Tilt left/right to roll
Tilt up/down to pull up or down
Press trackball to fire machinegun
Of Note:
Enemies are currently just green boxes but do behave somewhat intelligently
You can't die yet
Next Release:
Main Menu
Possibly a death sequence
Let me know what you think of it!
Don't listen to the market comment goons, this shows a lot of potential. Keep it up!
yea...the market goons are worthless...come here for the "real" comments.
keep up the good work.
i think more than half the comments i see in the market come from 16 yr old. i like this game
This game shows a lot of potential,the market people who comment are idiots who say first all the time
Is the game good? No, it's pretty much terrible.
Does it have potential? **** yeah.
Graphics for sure, enemy planes, I would make the view in 3rd person, and show a small jet instead of cockpit view. Keep up the good work, it'll get there.
Just got my G1 like 5 hours ago (After a curfuffle with a postman xD) This was one of the first Apps I downloaded to test the accellerometer and it's frickin awesome! Sure way to kill 10 minutes or so, and yeah it has potential. Maybe a Gyro to show your current heading could be added, that way I can tell if i'm upside down or not!
Could you integrate google satellite view into it?
i suspect that would slow it down, but would make it way fun.
either more targets, or more maze like capabilities.
right now it's very flight simulatorish.
God you wanna talk about a little curfluffle with the postman to get it? FedEx was supposed to deliver mine on New Years eve and the delivery man filed that the road was blocked. I called their headquarters, raised hell about it, they checked into it, he changed it to local holiday (meaning a business was closed for delivery) on a residential shipment. They finally made him come back (which was an extra 30 minutes both ways) and deliver it. He refused to even drive all the way down my driveway, he parked halfway down and stood next to the truck until I walked up to get it from him. The lesson of this story, if you're a delivery man and wanna go out and party on new years eve, do your freakin job first or else it'll just cost you more time.
You have done a great job man! Increadible potential. Atleast we can see that 3d is on its way! Keep up the good job. Afterall bding games takes hundreds of people some time so you've a great job!
Bunch of my buddy's got iphones and are constantly showing me cool apps for just about everything. I know our phones rule, so post up some of your favorites so I have a bit to show
I am still looking for a good weather app with radar -.-
I really like WMwifirouter http://www.wmwifirouter.com/ It has a free trial its great.
it turns your data connections from your phone into wifi. Making your phone into a wifi hotspot!
look for Shootme v 2.5, thats a fun one. its like iphones shotgun app only this one has machine gun, whip, boxing glove, and more(my fav is the hair clippers, if you sneak up behind someone it really sounds and feels like your hair is being buzzed off haha)
Im assuming ur a guy by posting this.. but HDwobble has to be one of the funniest apps..

but u dont have to limit urself to breasts, if youre not completely dirty mined.
SK Tracker. It's a must-have if you flash a lot and want to learn how to back up all your settings w/ UC or sashimi.
Tom Tom stand alone GPS. I dont need to have internet access to figure where im at via google maps.
Apps
No apps really compare to Iphone apps. Especially games, the only game that is interesting and fun is "Xtrakt" and that is originally for the Sony Ericsson Xperia 1 and it doesnt fit on the screen correctly. The Touch Pro wasnt really thought of when it comes to impressive applications.
FindME
I don't mean to blow my own horn, but I am finishing up testing LsFindMe. It is an app I wrote, which I use to find my car in a parking lot (Actually more likemy wife uses it daily).
You "tag" the car when you leave the car. when you leave the mall you click "findme" . The system tells you how far from your car you are, and guides to to it.
slingplayer mobile.... use it everyday @ work and on the rail road home...
and hTorch of course... lets see the iphone guys do something like that!! good luck w/o a flash!!

And where exactly can you get Tom tom for the Touch Pro with North American maps, I am willing to buy them, but TomTom.com does not sell them.
If you're musical, Pocket Guitar is impressive http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=482726 It's available for the iphone too, but it works great in the TP and it's free.
You mean I can only have one favorite app?
The list is seriously endless for me. This is just part of it:
GRemote
FM Radio (comes in handy sometimes)
A few of the games in the Mega Arcade Pack
TF3D (Can't say I've ever seen an iPhone interface this sexy )
WorldCard Mobile
PocketIRC
HTC's Wi-Fi Router app (Just started using it recently and love it, though USB tethering worked awesome too)
I used to really enjoy hearing "What's one thing your phone can do that my iPhone can't?" That was easy, just show them copy & paste. Sadly the new iPhone can do it too now...I hate you Apple
id have to say diamond beer and touch the music would be a good start also there is a thats what she said app with the voices of the people from the tv show the office. also htorch is a must turns your led into a flash light and dont forget the light saber app.
need for speed
with g sensor.

That's awesome!!! My fiance called me one holiday season saying she couldn't find her car in the Target parking lot that we shop at on a weekly basis :S Thing is, she wouldn't think to tag it... :/

This is a prank to get people to yell about using Google, right?
TomTom Navigator for WM
Godaft is a really fun app I use it all the time .

Seeing this needs a physical keyboard. Has anyone tried this yet via bluetooth keyboard or a USB keyboard. I would try but I don't have any compatible keyboards. I would literally hemorrhage if I could play Shadow Warrior or Duke Nukem 3D. Anyone willing to have a go? Please and thank you ahead of time.
*edit* I am picking up a keyboard that will work with it and have a look see tonight.
Any luck? I actually have an old copy of shadow warrior in a box of old computer crap I couldn't bring myself to throw away. I remember the trouble of trying to get that game to play on my apple g3 using an orange PC win95 mimic card and dosbox style prompt. God speed sir, I would be one thing less on the bucket list if I could play Marathon 2: Durandal on my gtab.
Sent from my Chromatic Magic using XDA Premium App
I got Adosbox installed loaded up but for the life of me I cannot get it to create and mount virtual drive C: so I can place the game in the directory. I haven't given up yet. I got 2 USB keyboards that work fine inside adosbox. Anyone else want to have a go?
Got to wait till the weekend to give it a deeper look. Keyboard works for me. Maybe I will hit up the gtablet irc and see if I can get a few more heads in the game.
If anything, as soon as my toddler is at grandmas for the weekend its going to be a pretty hot date with adosbox, me and a six pack of IPA.

A man after my own heart, I never do anything without some sort of beverage. It sooths the android rage when I can't figure something out. I'll try as well, except my kids will be home hitting me asking for the "Tab-Board"
I've used an old HP fullsize keyboard and usually use the mini keyboard that comes with the case, both USB. I also use both aDOSBox and another varient (tho for the life of me I can't find the link ATM). Have 7th Guest and ROTT and Windows 3.11 on it currently.
IIRC, aDOSBox didn't support sound (or rather it emulated it to null) which is why I changed.
This weekend I want to pull Descent over ...
Awesome to know someone got it working. Pretty cool you got windows 3.1 on it. I'm planning on starting simple and seeing about getting rogue or scorched earth to run from the prompt, if I can do that I will totally drop in 3.1 too. Thanks for the heads up, hopefully I will have good news to report on Monday.
In a bit of a quandry as the Kinect's are on sale at Best Buy for $99 and I feel like Im burning a hole in my pocket. Anyone use this frequently? Worth it? I have my daughter every other weekend and she uses the Wii like crazy but I'm wondering about the adult applicability factor.
Played it a few times at a friends house and I like the bowling on it way better than the Wii. In my opinion it is worth it so long as you are getting a compatible game with it or you already have a game that works with it
For kids - probably great.. for adults? Depends on what kind of games you're into. If you're into the dance dance etc. games... probably awesome. If you're into FPS' and the like, probably a dud..
My kids like it but I have yet to play it. My wife did right after we got it and it damn near gave her a heart attack. When I helped them set it up it seemed like it was having difficulty tracking them. We got a new tv and I need to move the sensor up, hopefully that will help. Also, when our dogs happen to walk in front of them it screws up the tracking as well.
I've heard reports of people having to move the TV in their room because there wasn't enough space in front of the camera for it to work properly, and I've also heard that you need a tidy room as too much clutter can confuse it.
Video games are meant to played in a sitting position with a bag of Doritos (other ****ty tortilla based snacks are available) on your lap....
Shame on you people with your desire to move and stuff.......
There seem to be more promising games coming. The favorite at our house with Kinect is the Dance Central games. Rise of Nightmares looks pretty cool, and I never buy games like that.
I love it and i am 24
Just make sure you get kinect sport,kinect sports season 2 and fruit ninja
Those are the best games for it
I also like being able to talk to my xbox and browse hulu plus and netflix via voice and hand gestures and telling my xbox to shut down.
I think its worth it and is great to play with your friends.
keep checking sites like AMAZON....price drops all the time....
Anyone knows pc games that support kinect device by factory? I have read something about drivers that allow kinect to use it as input device or mouse for paint and general pointing actions but i don't know it about gaming use for example C.O.D. III
NickFee
I own one and... that's great! Btw more and more cool games are out
For me just singleplayer gamer is kinect useless but playing with friends is totaly best
