The chances of getting this on the pandora?


Its minimum requirments is a 1ghz processor on Windows, with 256 MB RAM.


Theres a linux version, chances are the requirements are lower on linux, and with the 1ghz unit around the corner, this game might just run.


That is if it can be ported to GLES.


Thoughts?

If you can get the source code to the Linux version and re-compile it to ARM - then maybe?

Yeah, hope thats possible, i hope some people with programming experience are willing to look into it.


I will start a Java course soon, so i can focus on technical testing and test tooling at work, but java knowledge isnt going to help with porting software to the pandora...

a 1 GHz PC-class CPU (like a Pentium III) has much better performance than a 1 GHz Cortex-A8, just fyi

True, but the cortex isnt bottlenecked by windows

Supposedly the gpu is too weak as well.

O well, if 1ghz cant pull it off, itl end up on p2 someday

Foxgod, how do you want to play such a game on such a small resolution screen? Even on PC with 1024*768 it's not really worth it...


Please be realistic when you ask for ports...
