The first 100 people must sign a contract declaring that they must post at least 1 youtube video each demonstrating games and the OS. Everyone enjoys watching demos of the Pandora.
You like the iPhone interface with the smooth scrolling and such. No doubt this can be recreated within a linux environment on the Pandora. The only reason it doesn't exist yet is because a device like the Pandora does not exist (on the Market yet). There are few devices that have a small enough...
Genius!
Though I could see myself taking my Pandora to the beach, I've done it with my GP2x and my GBA and neither of those have been damaged. It just depends how careful you are with the device and where you place it (ie keep it in your bag and only take it out and use it when you are lying on...
Normally I visit OP once a day, to check for any news but spend most of my time on Facepunch Studio forums, though they've been down for the past 2 days which is starting to get annoying.
Those are some really nice graphics, and would make a very good point and click adventure/ isometric rpg. The only problems I can foresee are getting behind scenery and collisions, but most of those can be tackled with a little bit of hard coding and cutting the image up a little bit (or use...
How are the levels going to be constructed for the game? Have map files would mean people can make their own levels etc. Also any plans of multiplayer modes or even coop?
Other than the fact that a USB device can run off the Pandoras USB supplied power, rather than a Bluetooth GPS that requires a charged battery to work.
I've kind of lost my excitement in the Pandora, mainly due to the delays. This is the first time I've been on the forums in ages, but I think when the manufactures begin I will begin to get excited again. I may even get round to writing a game for it before they ship.
I think that maybe some sort of online authentification would work well. When the game is run, it compares a key that the user is given when they buy the software (assuming it is a commercial product) to a database online. Though it will only do this when the Pandora has a wifi connection. If...
I agree with GPSchynyder, cross platform compatability would be awesome, but balancing may be hard.
The new vids show some promise, and as soon as you get maps working you should test the limits of maps.
Are you going to include bots? Because it would make the game playable when there is no...
Looks pretty sweet, Though with the MD2 model system, how many models can you get on screen before we see a framerate hit? And from what you said, I assume that this model is near the 800 mark?
Personally I would prefer higher detailed models, but if it is going to slow the game down when we...
I have only ever used Game Maker (6), but it seemed to be as close as being able to make any sort of game as possible. Users can add resources, and create 'Objects' which can control these resources. Such as adding an animated sprite of a character walking, setting the play objects sprite to...
I'm sure most people aren't bothered about waiting longer than others to get their pandoras. I would much rather get my Pandora later and there to be plenty software already created, then get it earlier and have to wait on development.
We also need to start thinking about control schemes and how it should be displayed. I was thinking that since the engine is going to be programmed from scratch, extra features that weren't in the originals could be added. Such as Zooming in and out, and maybe even a mod managed built into the...
