Smash A Skull give away!

Weird... on my Axim it shows the little wait cursor whenever it refreshes a frame. Is that how it should be?

Yah, its probably supposed to be like that. Happends on my Maestro as well. But it doesnt really bother me, its still fun!

Yeah I wrote it in eVB, so that little damn wait cursor appears whenever it lags. I did a ton of research trying to figure out how to disable it but with no luck. My new game Fugitive 2330, is being wrote in an eVB add-on called ASpriteCE and it uses GAPI so it's superfast and that wait cursor never appears. Maybe one of these days, when I get time, I will rewrite Smash A Skull with that control, so it will be alot faster and that wait cursor will not appear. Right now though, I'm focusing on my space shooter (which is coming along very nicely).

any info on fugitive?

Yeah, like I said it's coming along nicely. Fett56, if you want to play Smash A Skull, buy it. It's only 3 bucks and you will not be disapointed.

Tech,

Do you know if ASprite CE works with NSBasic?? I would be surprised if it didn't considering how similar NSB is to eVB, but you know what they say when you "ASSUME"

by **HobbesAB** » Mar 8, 2003 @ 5:06am

Well, I just read that NSB is NOT compatible with ASprite CE.

It looks like I assumed too much :oops:

Yeah it's a pretty simple game. I spent more time drawing all the graphics (those ten different 240x320 backgrounds took me forever), than the code. It was a learning experience though, and the knowledge I gained from Smash A Skull is helping me alot in my new game.

how many copies have you sold so far? for three dollers, its not bad.. but i haven't bought a ppc game in my life.. even though i can now that i have a Credit card

by **TechMage** » Mar 12, 2003 @ 4:17am

Not many, only 5 copies. I had like 400+ demo downloads, so I recently pulled the demo from Handango and PocketGear to see if that would bring in more sales. You can still find the demo at if you want to try before you buy.

I thought it was pretty sweet. The little processing ce dohickey gets annoying, but I realise there's nothing you can do about that.
