First thoughts, nice to support the dev.
All the original game modes are still there, adds campaign, and 3 new challenge modes. Nice large update, but that's what it is... an update.
I reccomend it! I know ill be playing it for hours tomorrow haha.

he could have used a better naming scheme, PewPew Lite/Free and PewPew rather than the one and two monikers. Still, one of the absolute best games out for android and I have actually grown to like it even better than geometry wars. I have also noticed some graphical touches not present in the original pewpew like the 3d oscilatting background in certain menus. Also much more music, I like the remix of the main theme. The campaign is imaginative and a fresh break from the challenge modes. Speaking of which, the new ones are pretty aweseme like "highway" for example, a massive circle of rotating enemys and you have to play in traffic to chase after a ball. This is my favorite game for android. No question. Especially for the Xoom!

Have objects in the wallpaper change perspective as you scroll your screens left or right. Like in this vid for example.
See how all the hills in the back scroll at different rates to help give that 3D depth perspective? It would be nice to have objects (like the turtles and shrooms) moving in the foreground too.
I actually want a live wallpaper that looks just like super mario bros wii, with moving backgrounds and all.
It's hard to develop, hard to play with, and icons and widget won't help you to play. The best solution is to download a super mario bross game in the market, I don't know if it already exist but it should
A game is not what i want, i want a live wallpaper that looks like the game, if you know what i mean? I want no interaction with it beyond the change in perspective when i scroll between screens.
It doesnt have to be mario bros either, it can be anything where the objects on the wallpaper scroll at different rates to give that change in perspective.
It's called parallax scrolling. It's already in some LWPs like Silhouette but not quite in the way you're referring to.
So, yeah it definitely could be done, but as far as I'm aware hasn't yet.
Parallax Scrolling... cool, thanks.
I just found a live wall paper that appears to use it, MaryJane, from the marketplace.
The leaves in the foreground and middleground move independantly of each other and from the background as well. Looks really cool... if you dont mind the type of leaves being used.
Now, if only someone would make one that mimics mario bros wii.
Yep. The MaryJane LWP is from the same group that did Silhouette.
The parallax scrolling technique was used heavily by Nintendo back in the day, as well as the PC demoscene. I'm willing to bet they pulled it out for SMB Wii as a sort of homage to the oldschool days.
Anyways, I vote that YOU start working on a LWP featuring PS in the SMB style (holy initialisms). The concept is simple enough.
thats how you play mario

I have no coding experience and wouldnt know where to start.
Someone just released a sweet live wallpaper with mario playing in the background... not exactly what i wanted, but still pretty cool.

thankg guys ,
but i am still a noob at it, my next step is to try honeycomb out. But will try it on the weekend.
I am uploading a 3rd video, just showing some footage of the launcher i use aswell.
Can you list the apps/games you have on the NC?
Thanks

sure, cant do it now but will do soon
Here is the list of my favorite Apps on the Nook Color:
X-Plane 9 ( works very well, I love the graphics and it's slightly realistic feel)
Mini-Gore ( it's a game you won't get bored of)
ADW( I personally like the look and feel on this launcher
Skype ( like to chat to my friends)
Pulse ( works well on tablets, great for news)
Opera Browser ( love it, multi touch but can't find a way to go back to the before page)
Doodle Jump ( it looks amazing, it's sooooo crisp. Very fun
I'll try to post some more but those are the apps I use most right now
Thanks
nice video

So, I have all the art and the ideas....now just getting all it down on paper and doing my best to make a killer theme wether your a portal fan or not. The idea is a portal theme mirroring the 1st game nice and clean and then portal 2 being darker and run down...mirroring the 2nd game.
Please be patient with me in that I am married....like that's not enough right there, and I also work full time and run a home recording studio. This is my first theme but it is to be a colaboration with a few established themers you know and love. I will handle the art and concepts, they will handle the programming.
Please feel free to post ideas that you have and also if anyone out there knows how to make and or edit widgets & LWP.....hit me up.
UPDATE!
A deep appology to anyone who may have been anticipating this Theme. I forgot to post that I had a flood and lost my beloved laptop a few months back. I did pick one up recently and plan to resume, all be it from scratch. Im not sure if I should roll with EC05 or a GB build since things have changed from when I started this thing. Any difference as far as difficulty between creating a theme in Froyo or GB?
UPDATE 2!
I aquired an ET4G and will be making this theme for that device instead....
Good luck man. Take your time bro. Family and work comes first.

Portal 2 boot animation.
Man I love the idea I'm actually just playing thru portal 2 right now. If you could incorperate the "goo" colors that would be awesome.

Keep the ideas coming people
I am trying to think of something in the way of widgets for the goo, not sure how to incorporate. I would like to have a clock widget that resembles the nuero toxin countdown in Glados's chamber as well.
I have my work cut out for me. Been reading up on proper implementation when it comes to graphics on the android dev site. Pretty intense, anyone interested in some side projects ie: widgets and lwp?
It was a great movie for me! The soldiers dropping at Chicago was so epic! You guys should watch it.

Went at midnight last night and had some fun. Just don't go expecting a story and you won't be dissapointed. The explosions and special effects were first class.
Oooh! Can't wait to see it!! It must be really cool!
The movie is epic... not to mention the ROBOTS... haaaa
Might go tonight, if i can talk the gf around
I am def. going to see it. Not expecting anything great though. Michael Bay is good and one thing and thats special effects lol
Yup, you really can't expect any extraordinary plot from this movie but it was still great. The effects, the stunts, the action was damn great. I didn't watched it on 3D because that glasses makes me dizzy but that might have been better at 3D.

Great effects and good storyline. must watch
Great movie !

The film has no sense to me is not interesting :-(
Great effects and and and and and and and nope thats all i got! the first one was was more interesting this was too many effects no storyline... kinda slow to begin with too!... worth the watch if ur into your effectss..
Not really a great movie. Soundtracks are not so epic. The actions are not really intriguing me. I prefer first and second transformer. :/
this movie not as great as previously. More prefer the number 2.
This movie has amazing realistic special effects like the Decepticon-ruled Version of Chicago.
Still disappointed about no megan fox but this new chick with british accent is pretty sexy
GingerBreads have no souls.....But, Windows Phone 7 gives it one. I Love Launcher7
Easily the best film of the 3. I really enjoyed this movie. Plus I went to the opening night midnight screening in 3D which was awesome.
havent seen it yet, want to though
I still think part 2 was slightly better, but Sentinel Prime and Shockwave were incredible. I wish they were in part 2.
Hello folks,
I've been looking around for a couple of games for the Nook STR. I've got several "slow movement" games to run properly: sudoku, reversi and gobandroid.
Is there any other recommended game? A RPG maybe? Maybe card games?
One Word - Samurai II.

Stop the spamming of the NOOK COLOR Themes and Apps forum.
There are areas for deviceces without own forum.

I don't agree... The Nook clearly deserves a forum more than most of the devices that have been crowded into those other forums. Not only that, the Nook is pretty much a Nook Color under the hood =\, so optimizations in the Nook Color could possibly be brought over if the devs or future devs are made more aware of what's going on with it.
Besides... Every Nook Touch topic i've seen is labeled with [N2E] not to hard to avoid =|
Chess works great! It is almost as if it were meant for it all along. I am surprised frankly that B&N didn't bundle a few little board game apps on the Nook2 in the first place.
Also, Akinator (guessing game) works as well.
Tic tac toe!
Tic tac toe works with a friend using Freenote!
Okay, the Nook running Freenote only serves as scratch paper to play the game, but nevertheless it worked.
alchemie with textmode and tap to combine is playable too
The sudoku app Andoku Sudoku ( com.googlecode.andoku ) has fairly little flickering.
Has anyone found a sudoku app that is even better suited for the Nook eink screen?
Please name specific apps (not just types of apps). There are a whole lot of chess apps so getting details on one that runs well on Nook saves time.
This is the chess I tired:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.google.android.chess
Games working on my Nook Touch:
Crimson Fields
Andoku
Four in a Row HD
Find it on the market
Tried some, but most of them has some level of ghosting:
Working so far:
- Klondike
- Reversi free
- Nemo picross
- GObandroid (to play Go! - very good)
- Super Sudoku
- Klondike free
- Dark nova (used to love Space Trader on my old Treo)
Still looking for a viable RPG - I guess Eye of the Beholder ou Bard's Tale style would work.
andoku
I have andoku running, but cannot access the check puzzle feature. Suggestion?
Never mind ..went to andoku 2. Works fine
Nethack and the Slashem variant are both great for the nook! Maybe its a little to retro for some but IMO you can't beat a classic like nethack. There's your rpg
tried nethack, but the screen was too darn small. Will try slash'em!!! Thanks
Here are some other great games:
Slitherlink.
Curvy (For two colored puzzles you have to set the second color to the middle between white and black).
Droid Fish. One oft the best chess engines with a very nice sleek design, perfect for the touch. Cuckoo engine with very low setting is great for kids learning chess - it makes a lot of mistakes
Shift. Black and White! Sadly almost unplayable without multitouch. Edit: Search for v1.2, works great and is maybe the only platform game working on STR
Search for "Simon Tatham's Puzzles" in Market. It is great.
tried nethack, but the screen was too darn small.

Thanks for the tip, gogolo2. Will try that! My buttons are already mapped.
Does anybody know where I can download FALLEN REALMS? It is a free app, but I couldn't download it through market, even though it is an android 2.1 version app. Tried all non-official download sites, but almost all of them lead me back to android market, and looking for "fallen realms apk" took me to almost 35 sites that I couldn't get anything at all.

Why not download it on your phone then back it up... and side load it to the nook.
