Here is a simple version of Gears of war for all WVGA devices. Like the console version the game is not easy. You have to know when to let your gun off, when to run, or when to hide behind barricades to avoid enemy fire.

For those who played the game can you tell me how it ran on your device thank you.
Looks good bro. It also looks like the buttons got distorted a lil bit.

I just like the fact you can use xbox graphics on windows mobile and still retain the speed of the console.
On the home page and "http ://www .xda-developers .com/windows-mobile/gears-of-war-available-for-wm/" they describe it as "another PlayStation classic game".
Blasphemy!
GoW is an exclusive title for the Xbox360 and GFW.
PlayStation [Spit] Classic my PackDonkey... 500 hail marys and a dip in a bath of holy water for you!
Anyway. looks good. I will try this later and tell you how it runs on my TG01.
(ps, can a moderators unristrict me please, it took me ages posting this, I'm not going to spam the forum, I prommise)
Hi,
is this an emulator or is this a port?
I am sorry to be a bit paranoid here - but you know the recent value added number cases...
Feedback
Ok
1st This is a version I made on my spare time. I made it because I wanted something fun to play on my phone.
2nd Ok you need to go ahead and download Xbox360 emulator Just kidding!! This is a cab just download it and it installs. You dont need an emulator to play. Have fun!!
I am running a WVGA Imagio running NRG's custom ROM. I LOVE GoW and will download this and give you a report on its performance! Looking forward to kicking some more locust butt while on the move!
Works pretty good! And yea, it is as difficult as the first GoW was. I only noticed one thing, early in the game, right at the start, if Marcus gets hit, I can still shoot for several minutes before I start over again. A little glitch.
Also, the controls aren't very responsive, but outside of that, pretty good start!
First I'll try on hd2, then on tp2. It'd be great if it had hw keyboard support, does it? Doubt it, seems like us qwerty-slider users are a dying breed... mostly from lack of devices!
games
Ok in the future I will try to make a resident evil port or any popular game I can find graphics for. Also if you want to try some of my other games , they are located in this website
www.krenisiswinmobilegamesapps.com
Kinda cool, lags a bit on my Touch Diamond 2 though. It would also be heaps better if you could add resistive dual touch so we can shoot while moving. It shouldn't be very difficult to code.
touch
The tool that I use doesnt support plug-ins . If it did I would love to install the multi-touch API that is said to be on xda-developers.
Hopefully my tools will get an upgrade soon!!
Didn't test it out yet, but looks great. Keep up the good work.
If you want to implement resistive dual touch, the best way is to put an invisible button directly in between the two buttons that would be pressed together, so if you were pressing right and a, you would place a button directly between them that does both. Do the same with all other buttons and you will be sweet.

Thanks I have found a way to code a jump left and jump right buttons. Now the games should be smoother. I might do another supermariobros remake using that. THANKS!!
for the ones who didnt see
Its been a couple of months since this game came out. Iam sure many people have brought touchpro2 or HD2 that didnt get a chance to download game so Iam giving it a well deserved bump.

Please check the requirements before you install!!
I'm new to developing on the Pocket PC platform and decided that I wanted to give it a shot. I figured that the best way to learn would be game, so here's my first attempt. This game is based off the New Super Mario Brothers mini-game called Whack-A-Monty (from the Nintendo DS). All of the graphics are from the original game; I have no intention of selling or making a profit from this game so I don't feel bad using their graphics. This is just a learning experience that I thought I'd share with everyone.
Requirements:
In this version (0.1), I have only included support for Pocket PC 320x240 or 240x240 resolutions. Also, I have only tested this on WM5 & WM6 emulators. This will only work on phones with a touchscreen.
This game was written in C# and thus requires .NET CF 2.0.
Again, this is my first attempt at game for Windows Mobile, so this is mostly a learning experience. Please don't crucify me for posting a game here, I'll be moving on to applications next. Let me know what you think!
I haven't tried the cab yet, but if I may I'd like to see the source code, specifically how you did the animation because I've been struggling with that.
nomb
This is awesome. Thanks heaps!
Yes this works well and reminds me of the game ratsplat - it needs sound to make it complete - keep up the good work!
VERY VERY cool game lol
Thank you!!!
Would there be any way to enable to input a name with a high score?

Not much animation in this game actually, but I do plan on releasing the code here. I need to do some tidying up first. I found the 'Programming with cheese' articles on MSDN very helpful for starting.
As for adding sound, .NET CF 2.0 has very limited support playing sounds. As far as I could find, there's no *easy* method for mixing sounds, or playing more than one sound at the same time. I need to do some more research on sound...

Hmm... I thought about this originally. I might bring it back.
Overall, I'm more interested in seeing if anyone has had problems installing the game (shortcuts work / in correct place), gameplay issues (hits aren't recorded, slow play, ...), stability issues, etc
Not working...
Hi there, the screenshots of your game look pretty cool. Unfortunately, I cannot play it, it's not working.
I own a Dell X51v with WM 6 (football edition A3, release RTM) but haven't installed Microsoft Net Framework (I was told that it is included in WM6). Whenever I start the game, only 25 percent of the game is visible in the upper left corner of my screen, the rest of the game's screen is somehow 'cut off' and my today screen or whatever is visible.
What a petty...
Do you guys know what to do about it? I guess I have already tried to install Netframework, but WM6 refuses to do so if I remember correctly.
Thanks for your help,

It installs and runs on my Universal (WM6), but unfortunately the VGA screen makes it unplayable (you can only see the top left quarter of the game area).
If you feel like expanding your learning experience, support for VGA devices would be very nice! And why not include a landscape mode too

Yes!!! Please!!! And I'll give to you 72 virgins without the need of immolate you (I think that 72 virgins is not enough but.. xD) Without jokes, I love this kind of games, and it looks great but I cant play it
All the best
Well I can't give you the virgins, but I would be damn grateful, I'm just getting into this stuff on my Universal, so other than the snes emulator, that I got working everything else is always suspect on the butttons or outdated. So please.
Im still playing the game, its working great!! Any updates?
This game is great and worked excellent on my MWG Atom Life until I flashed to medkid's 6.1 ROM, now when I install it messes with some of the fonts (e.g. on the screen alignment screen and on commanager using poorlyduck's vista theme). The game itself kinda works ok on 6.1 but the stylus isn't very accurate for some reason, often missing some while hitting others. My girlfriend was devastated when I told her she couldn't play whack-a-monty anymore! ;] thanks for a great game otherwise though!
hey, looks great, I'd like to play it on my VGA device too
it reminds me that great flash game tontie.
unfortunately I have yet to see a pda able to play flash games flawlessly
Hey, thanks for sharing! I like it!!
Greetings, Melle.
i tried to use it on my palm treo pro and a part of the screen is cut off...I dont know what the prob is.
very cool and a lot of fun! Also, a very old thread!!
great game!I ultimately know why the game interests you and lead you programming.
vga request
loved it on my kaiser, love it more on my touch pro
Good game for killing more boredom
Thankyou.
no updates?
Windows Phone7 is shaping up too be a monster. Well as far as gaming is concerned. As much as they are concentrating on gaming,they should call it Xbox mobile7 hahahaha.
Can other people who found online photos of windows phone games post it here so we can have a collection.
Wow...
That is so fake it actually made me cry a little.
First person shooters are barely playable with a console controller; What makes you think a touchscreen will be remotely playable?!
How do you move, aim, and shoot at the same time?!
living under a rock
Where exactly have you been? Xtracts is a 3D 1st person shooter and runs perfect. They even have Doom for pocket pc. You should check online before you make silly comments. They even have Assasins Creed 3D .....where have you been?

Um no. Xtrakts is a 3rd person shooter, Assassins creed is a 3rd person adventure game. Doom is the only one you listed that is a FPS. You should learn what your talking about before you accuse others of making silly comments.
I h8 that way online gaming got on consoles. And that bad way jumps over to you phones and computers. Online register, payed updates, completely dependent on the vendors servers etc..
Also it is impossible to play on Phone agains Computer or XBox players ->
Mouse>Gamepad>Finger
some people love to disagree
Xtracts,assasins creed, and doom all example of complex games that people thought werent possible. Now I gone online and scoped out infomation. Iam not about to put everything I know here that would take pages. So for nagle go look online and research before you jump gun ready to attack. The information is all out there. Even my website has a wealth of knowlegde on windows phone7. I dont deal with rumors ethier , I speak on what has been confirmed by Microsoft.

Well I was in no way attacking I'm just correcting you. 3rd person= you seeing the character your playing, example xtrakt and assassins creed. First person = you looking through the characters eyes, doom is a great example of this. But as far as playing any newer FPS on a phone, yes they can make it happen but I highly doubt it would be remotely enjoyable. Even FPS on the psp suck because of not having dual analog sticks.

Also besides call of duty on ipod there is also resident evil which is very impressive. I think microsoft is going for the juggular here. They going for it finally after wasting so much time and empty promises ,,this looks to be it.
Still want to call a fake

microsoft
Now microsoft has made it where you can play indiana jones on the phone save your game and continue it on your XBOX . Thats amazing!!
The title is very misleading
The title suggests I can be playing any Xbox 360 game, online against my mates, then simply pick up my phone and carry on. This is exactly what Microsoft want - people spreading incorrect rumours that they themselves are not responsible for.
There will be some games that you can play on the Xbox 360 and then continue to play on your phone, but it will only be games that are designed to do this. This will not include the big blockbusters. As it's already been pointed out in this thread, it is simply not possible to play a fully fledged 1st person shooter (a real one - not some pretend one) on a touchscreen, with full control. It's taken years for the console developers to come up with the current controllers, and they can't be replaced with 2 thumbs on a touchscreen.
If I'm wrong and it turns out that a future rendition of Call of Duty does work on WP7, then I take all this back and thoroughly look forward to sitting at my console and seeing you online on your phone, because you won't stand the slightest chance.
not misleading at the time was posted but there have been changes
Yes when this was 1st posted Microsoft had said that you be able to play mulit-player against other players. Now that everything is finalized Microsoft has said games made with XNA will be able to be played online against XBOX players. The title has truth I never said any game . Honestly I myself wont be developing for windows phone7 , I stick to 6.5 because I dont see too many people buying this new phone.

That wasn't a silly comment.
These games may look good, but they are not of the level of games on a console platform. That particular game has 1 analog stick for both movement and looking. This will never please a real gamer. Consider that a modern day console has 2 analog sticks, a direction pad, 4 main buttons, 4 front buttons, and the 2 sticks can both be used as buttons as well as moving and looking, at the same time! That's too much to put on a touchscreen, so a phone will never be as good as a console. It's literally a completely different market.
Wheel 0.4.3
Let me introduce you my new platform game for Windows Mobile, playable at Pocket PC 2002 and above (yes, really). I’m not a big fan of apps that works on one display resolution only, so the game is screen resolution independent (you can play on QVGA or WQVGA), however it looks best on the HVGA, VGA and WVGA screens.
The most important is that you can press more than one virtual button on you classic resistive screen (as it was capacitive), which makes this type of game comfortably playable even without hardware buttons. Nice, isn’t it?
What is the game itself all about? You control small robotic wheel (which was actually wooden in non-public releases ) chased by devil from outer space (or something like that) who wants your score (but not you life). Score is obtained by collecting yellow stars.
There are no levels, there are dimensions. In each dimension, you have to found interdimensional gateway, which takes you to the new dimension, similar to the previous one, or to completely different. Red arrow accelerates the devil (red aura), green arrow slows down him. Green sprout accelerates your wheel (blue aura), but only for limited time. Also, in the beginning of every dimension, you will get little bit of extra speed, just like when you die and are resurrected.
To save your game, use X -> SAVE. In main menu, use CG to continue.
The game is not yet entirely completed (and I’m not fully convinced if it is worth finishing since Windows Phone 7 are coming). Even so, let me know of any problems, ideas or thoughts. I don’t promise anything, but it could help to make the game better.
Note: I know it's ironic, but the multitouch effect can't work on HTC HD2 because of it's real capacitive screen.
Note 2: The game does NOT use any "multi-touch SDK", as stated here (I don't know why the author wrote it).
The game is completely free for your personal use, although it can be downloaded from the following site ONLY (I know it's annoying, but be fair and respect it):
DOWNLOAD
I hope I haven't forgotten anything and that you will enjoy the game .
(As you probably noticed, english is not my native language so I’m sorry if I have written anything funny .)
AWESOME GAME!!! Works great on my GSM treo pro. No lag and the multitouch is really nice.
Yes, it's really cool !!!
thx !!!
Thanks for your hard work! Nice game...
nice. but please keep a graphical update in mind
I tried your game on my XDA Flame (VGA with WM5).
Must say I'm impressed -especially with the multitouch. Too bad we dont see this in other games!
I'd like a bit faster scrolling and some in-game sound or tune..
Keep up good work plz!
Thank you all for your positive reactions, I am sincerely delighted and a little bit surprised .
I know about poor graphic. I’m not very good at creating it . If there is anyone who wants to help me, I’m enclosing the main graphics files. Transparent color is magenta (R = 255, G = 0, B = 255).
If someone creates something, post it here and I will try to build the game with it .
Good that i still have my Toshiba E830. Will try it tomorrow.
it looks great. One problem on the HD2 - since it is capacitive instead of pressing both keys you need to utilize the resisteive multitouch trick you impoy. in other words, to do multitouch on the HD2 you need to single touch between the two directions you want to go which is actually a little confusing in practice because you need to remember the variables. it does seem to be pretty nice otherwise.
nice game, good design for control
Very, very strong arcade feeling
Graphics may not be top notch, but it fits perfectly with the kind of game, my only glitch is that, no matter my HD2 being obviously multitouch capable, I still cannot press two buttons at the same time... maybe it's because I have LMT installed which "steals" multitouch from the game?
@bugsykoosh
just read your post, nevermind I can play by pressing the middle area, yes it is somehow harder to get the hang of it,m but after that, it kicks in my genetic adversity for arcade games, I die no matter what
Thanks for testing on HD2. I don't know why I didn't get i sooner, but it naturally can't work on real capacitive screen of HD2. I'll add it into the first post...

It is really the kind of games I like to have on my Touch HD: simple but addictive!
I've created a post for your game on a french website by translating your post to french.
I've respected your choice not to create any mirror download link, and people will have to download it from your website.
Again, thank you very much!
You're probably in the last dimension, the hardest one . I created a video showing how to complete it .
2 michoob: Thanks for writing about my game, I really appreciate it .
The game is a platform where we help our wheeled robot to travel through dimensions and avoid obstacles and enemies.
i guess you have to think about a good story of this game. For example: a little dragon that tries to escape from his bad father or something like that. Make a nice story, and that will be the begin of a nice game
But, when you say I can tap onm two places, do you really mean it? I mean, I am using it on HTC Gene as well as HD2. Double touch not working on HD2 is fine. But I can't make two touches on my Gene too. What's wrong?
dakujem - thanx
gr8t stuff
Playing this game almost after year and a half. Nostalgic. Great work! For those who are curious, I have still maintained my Gene along with the other devices.
Play the popular Dead Space game on your WVGA device.
Trapped in a space station you have to survive until help comes. Move left or right and fire your gun at incoming enemies. As you gain ranks , the enemies will come at you faster and faster. Dead Space on your windows mobile device!!!
Featured Achivements in the Game:
Your Rank is under the score on top left of screen.
10,000= killer title
30,000=warrior title
100,000= ???? you got to get there to find out!!!
UPDATE: Cab file added
If you have any questions please feel free to ask
If you want more free games click here
http://krenisis.freeforums.org
tips and tricks
Here is some advice for the game.
1) When the enemies land on the ground they move towards you. So if you havent fired a shot move quickly out the way.
2) When your rookie status changes to killer the enemies move faster. Sometimes fire shots inbetween moving back and forth.
3) Try to look for patterns in the enemy movements , it helps later on when they are comming faster.
If you got any more questions just post and I will answer. Try to get the highest rank possible!!!
Has anyone been able to reach the highest rank yet??

It's really bad game, didn't like it.
Just a copyright infringement by krensis again...
dude great job if we can get this ported to android youd have a huge amount people that would enjoy it maybe even pay for
Great job, will try it! Cheers man!
Thanks for the feedback guys!!
1) Ok the buttons are small but they have a region slack so you dont have to press directly on them , I did that so they dont obsure the view.
2) I cant do VGA because I dont have VGA device to test it on.
I happen to play this game after a lay off. I realize its too hard for casual gamers , so if I have time I will make an easier version later.
I just stayed in the corner shooting and couldn't die. Got boring after a while using that method. Any other way was an impossible task for me.
i will try it thanks

I don't have any Touch Profiles yet but I think I am going to end up needing one for N64oid. It doesn't have native analog support and thus I need to run with a touch profile. Pain in the arse to setup.
Best way to do it is to get in your game that you need the profile for, take a screenshot with as little on screen as possible just the touch keys overlay, and then use it to map out the controller inputs.
I tried doing it for N64oid but was having a really hard time scaling the analog sticks up to perfectly fit the C Buttons and main analog stick. It wasn't big enough.
