Wizsticks Preview

Here's a preview of a game I made for the WIZ. Me playing with one hand, while holding the camera is a bit awkard, sorry.
The game uses the old pixel engine I had in the GP2X. I'm working on the OpenGL|ES version ATM.
The particels are alpha blended, but it's still very quick. Also the pixel rotation in realtime is no deal the the WIZ. The game is a slideshow when running on a GP2X, overclocked to 240 MHz.

Nice work. Great to see that the Wiz can actually do something

 

[WarmFluffyUK]

Any chance of a download, and if you need testers I can help if you like?

Nice work by the way

Interesting work. I like it.

Here's the link to the project.
The level editor is Notepad.exe

looking nice

would scrolling (moving the screen around) normally use the d-pad?

I look forward to updates

 

[GernotFrisch]

yes, that's posible too. You can use the SELECT button to center the view on the stick, too.

Kewl, that's fun. after I finish writing music for Dotrun, I might have a go at creating some maps

I found the Windows exe, is there a compiled gpe for the Wiz yet?

Looks really nice, awesome to see the touchscreen put to good use, it opens up so many possibilities

This game looks very fun and unique, nice work.

Nice game, any chance for a '2x port?

No, i meant a port. That's not the same as recompiling the game for the '2x and discovering that the '2x is not the Wiz. Btw. no pun intended, not to you and not to Kungphoo. But maybe the game can made running acceptable eg. by downgrading the graphics or something like that. There's no reason a '2x version (if ever ) has to be a pixel perfect copy of the Wiz version.

Squirrel61: What they're getting at is the fact that the sprite rotation and physics routines and such maybe too demanding for the GP2X in their current state, and unless KungPhoo want to release his source, or change it himself (maybe by putting in some asm routines for the more trying parts of the physics, etc.) It won't be feasible on the 2X...

Ofcourse, this is a glbasic project (didn't notice that at first) so who knows if it can be optimized without moving to a different language...

Also, good work KungPhoo, looks to be an interesting game

 

[PoisonedV]

Looks nice. I'm kind of wanting a wiz now, didn't know it was released?
physics based kuru kuru kururin.... looks so awesome

 

[cruelcynic]

Looks fun. I can't wait to check it out my self.

Linux 0perating system. Dunno if that's leet-speak or engrish

Thanks for posting these I hadn't seen them. Putting "90 degree rotation" in the trailer as a feature is pretty classic. Also seeing the flash player in action has me pretty excited.

KungPhoo, nice work on the game, looks great.

Actually the Wiz will have a bunch of homebrew games on it from day one
