Hi all,
i'm currently working on a project with a relatively small team (~3 people).
its an 2D arcade shooter, with and inspiration from Geometry Wars but own aspects and other focus.
The game itself will be completely free on the Marketplace!
It features (will feature)
- 8 different skills ( 4 offensive and 4 defensive)
- 9 stages for now with 5 enemy types
- expert mode for the extra challenge
- arcade gamemode: unlimited play for the highscore
We need Beta testers
Its relatively hard to judge the difficulty of the game when you played it for weeks and wrote it by yourself. Also i'd like to see if it runs smooth on other devices that are not mine.
So if you got
- an Developer unlocked Wp7 phone
- time (~2 h per week)
- and the spirit to give feedback when i send you a new version
please PM me and i'll get back to you!
Thanks in Advance!
You can find pictures of the game here:

That looks pretty sick. I'd love to help you but I forgot to get a DreamSpark code this year, best of luck.
Thanks!
If you want to keep track with the development of this game,
like it on fbook:
facebook.com/pages/HexGrid/224615050916978
and follow me on twitter for more recent updates:
twitter.com/#!/pcnx
I try to keep both as updated as possible.
Starting monday, i will provide screenshots and videos on a quite regular basis.
Edit:
First Pictures are uploaded to the Facebook page. Here is an example:

This looks awesome. I can't wait to see it in the Marketplace.
Thanks! Check our indieDB page out!

It will be a cross platform game (PC, Xbox, and WP7)!
Unfortunately i cant use shaders on WP7, so i will have to
work around that, but aside that i've got alot planned keep tracking!
I saw the video and it looks very interesting ... good job
Thanks for your replies.
I published a new video, check it out at
indiedb.com/games/hexgrid/videos/hexgrid-beta-august

Hi Peter
I have a touchscreen PC. Will you be releasing a touch controlled version of the game for PCs?
If you need any testing I have an HP Touchsmart Tx2z.

Hi,
Here's a special XDA preview of my entry for ADC2: Thinking Space
Thinking Space is a Mind Mapping application for Android.
Features include basic compatibility with Freemind (http://freemind.sourceforge.net) and XMind (via Freemind import/export)
Heres a image export from the application, which helps to explain its purpose:

}
If you are in to Mind Mapping, I would very much appreciate any feedback you have at the moment.
It's been a massive challenge to get this to where it is now in the couple of months since the Android Developers Challenge 2 was announced, so some bits are still a bit rough around the edges, but overall it's quite complete now.
The Cloud support is very basic at the moment, however I hope to have a web frontend soon that will allow you to download your maps and also upload new revisions from your PC.
Thinking Space is freeware, I may even open source it once I've had the oppurtunity to tidy the source up abit!
Edit:
Now on Android market:

cloudify mind map
is a great application! I use it every day since I know the app.
but I have a question about the publication in the cloud.
in which service of google publish your mind map?? in Google Docs??
thx!!!
Hi,
The cloud function uses Google App Engine to the store the maps online.
I've done an update for Droid and Tattoo screens users.
If anyone has a Droid, and particulary a Tattoo, I'd be really interested in hearing any feedback you have!
Any UK devs going to Android Labs on the 19th November?
great app
works great. Thank you
I use the programme for some time and I think it is one of the most beautifully crafted apps.
It is just GREAT!
but where do i find online my maps?
Is there any way to download file
Hello,

vERY GOOD
Thanks! Mango update is coming out soon too
Thanks you.very good
Mango update has been released. Enjoy. I will be adding themes next!
Themes have been added. I am working on adding more levels now!
Do you know what you did?
You created a SUPER F***ING AWSOME GAME dude!
Can't wait to buy a Titan and play this
Just hope you keep the great work...
thank you! Support like yours is what keeps me developing! I am looking into adding more levels or maybe a new game mode. Trying to figure out what will be better
Great game!
Nice game thanks
Thanks for a very addicting game. A nice addition would be a hint button for when you get stuck on a level. Other than that not a problem.
Wonderful work. This game looks great.
BTW, I edited your OP to embed the YouTube video review for easier access.
Very nice game, this is actually better than its iPhone counterpart, Fling. Very polished and lots of levels. Just one thing: When choosing between those two themes, it's not that obvious which one is selected. You should change the graphic.
Also @willverduzco: nice find!
Looks really cool. Develop for Android !!!!
Pretty PLease
Cannot figure out how to download. I was brought to a link to download zune. Is that required?

I will check this game out!
the game is already out.
Firing controls need improvement, many a times they don't fire at right moment or they just stop.
Been playing it since 2 days now.
Looks good. Gonna try it once I update to mango.
nice game...running smoothly on hd7 =)
thank you!
for control I simulate two analog stick and you are the first that have problem.
what model are you?
Well the game is good, but it needs some improvement..I was planning to provide a video review but it lacks a lot..It would have been great if the OP fixes it
BTW..Great job
Tried the game now that I updated to mango. Great game. Yes, the controls need to be polished. Sometimes they just don't respond/or respond with a delay. otherwise, a great game. Thanks.

"lacks a lot" ????
"OP" ???
I do not understand what you say
Pictures kinda remind me of Gauntlet. Looks cool. I'll have to check it out.
It was a typo...I mean to say 'lag' instead of lack..The game needs to be polished especially the controls...Sometimes it doesn't fire at all
OP=Original Poster
I guess this word is not often used over here.

PokeDex for Windows Phone 7
Developed by Kasidit Wijitsopon
The Pokédex is an application designed to catalog and provide information regarding the various species of Pokémon.
The name Pokédex is a portmanteau of Pokémon and index. In the video games, whenever a Pokémon is first captured, its height, weight, species type, and a short description will be added to a player's Pokédex.
This is a Full & Free version.
If you need to support this project please donate a little money.

Thanks. 1 of my favorite game. Love it so much.
thanks for the link bro !! !!!
pokemon fan for life !
i am a pokefan too
ty for the pokedex
next version coming soon
Small bug. When a name is written in all-caps, the "speak" function spells it out one letter at a time rather than reading the word.
So "CHARIZARD" gets read as "cee ache aye are eye zee aye are dee" rather than just "Charizard"
Good stuff I have added a press release for it here : http://www.1800pocketpc.com/pokedex-yes-it-is-for-the-pokemon-fan/28107/
thank you very much

Hi All,
I'm nearly done with my first Windows Phone 7 app (I know, just in time for it to be replace by WP8, but what can you do?).
Anyway, I'm looking for a few beta testers to try it out on other devices. You'll need to be a paying subscriber to Instapaper. If anyone's interested in giving it a go, reply here or e-mail me at [email protected]. Send me details of which phone you have and the e-mail associated with your windows live account and I'll add you to the beta.
More details of the app are at: http://www.comfortablereader.com
There are other good Instapaper clients for WP7, but my aim was to do something that is:
- Deliberately simpler and quick: I just want to have a few things to read on my phone in an idle moment. I'm not interested in organising folders or hundreds of bookmarks.
- Fancy looking and in keeping with the WP7 experience: not just a plain text list
If anyone's interested let me know - I'd be very grateful.

I don't use Instapaper, so I wouln't be a very useful tester, but just for the record... WP8 is going to be able to run WP7 apps, so in a way, you're just getting a lead on WP8 purchases!
Looks fantastic, great to see a read later app with offline support & background syncing! Unfortunately I'm not an Instapaper user, but best of luck.
@GoodDayToDie: Yeah, it's good news about 7.5 apps being compatible with 8 (speaking as a user as well as a dev) - I would hate to have to start buying apps all over again for the next version.
@irlju: Thanks - I really wanted to get the offline stuff working well because that's pretty much 100% of my reasoning for wanting an Instapaper client app. Particularly as network coverage is pretty patchy round here! The background sync stuff is working well but, as with all WP7.5 apps, it's really difficult to predict when the OS is going to decide to run your synch task.
