Jumba - Game for WVGA Smartphones - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hi guys!
This is my first game for Windows Mobile. You can download and check it out for free!
Download Jumba here!
It should work on all WVGA devices, like HTC Diamond 2, HTC Touch HD, Sony Ericsson Xperia X1, Toshiba TG01, Asus P835, Acer Tempo F900 and many more...
This download contains a German and English version.
The game is quite addictive, but the best thing is the online highscore system. So you can compete with all the other players in daily/weekly/monthly and all-times highscore list.
New in Version 1.1:
- Reduced sound volume
- Added options to disable sound and vibration to the main menu
- These settings get saved automatically
- Fixed crash when dragging balls out of the playing field
- Added a clickable link to the activation screen
New in Version 1.2:
- Fixed a bug that caused continuous vibrations on some phones
New in Version 1.3:
- Fixed display of numbers for pro-gamers:
- Score can go up to 99,999,999
- Last score to 99,999
- Level to 999
Here are two screenshots (from the German version):

Nice one there are few games for wvga devices. i will give it a shot

Exactly
Since I couldn't find any good WVGA games I figured out I had to write my own ^^

will this work for VGA screens? if not, any plans to make it VGA compatible?
thanks.

Great work! An excellent variation on the "connect n objects with similar properties" theme. WVGA graphics are splendid, and I really enjoyed the game! I played till level 7, I think, before a crash happened. I use a Blackstone.
My criticism:
Jumba did crash on me mid game. Simply try dragging a ball below the playing field. Seems to be reproducible.
I really dislike the vibrations - especially when my device is set to 'silent'!
Shortcut should install to "Games", not "Programs".
At least make a clickable hyperlink to your activation site. The address can't even be copied to the clipboard.
I'm out of trials, so I guess I need to consider activating!

Glad to hear there is a new WVGA game for my HD....thanks and appreciate your great works!

Thanx! Great work!

how to activate???? any K***y thanks

Hi guys!
Thanks for your feedback, especially to ugumba. I'll try to fix everything this week. The new version will be up soon
@danielng7:
I don't get what you're saying
@all:
I hope 3,99€ isn't too much for a game like this. At first I considered releasing it as freeware, but since I spent almost a month of my free time on this project I thought a little fee would be ok.

Hey, you stole my name!
Just kidding.

So basically you're self promoting....... i'm not going to lie, a little disappointed.
You don't usually see threads for games on here, which cost money. Sorry, but I won't be buying. Goodluck and nice work tho.

And after a while the vibrations get completely stuck, so you have to reset your device.
Also the sound is too loud and the sound on/off status should be saved in the registry.
Unfortunately my 3 testruns are all spent due to the resets, so no further "testing" from me
(and I will not pay 4 euro's for faulty software)

@fransb:
I'm sorry you encountered so many problems. I can assue you they did not occur on my device, otherwise I would have fixed them.
But thanks a lot for your feedback. I'll include your criticism on this weeks's ToDo list.
Maybe you could tell me what exactly happened with the vibration? How to did you manage to get it "stuck"???

Hi folks!
Just uploaded version 1.1. For a change log check out my first post (the download link has been updated, too). It can be installed directly over the old version.
Hope you like it

what the HECK???
you said it's free. only 3 times trial???? so much DISAAPOINTED!
also, can not open! unexpected error occur! HTC HD!

nicely done dude I will try it right now

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Well, with half a game played, three resets and no credits left it is a bit hard to tell now what happened isn't it???
And I resent the fact that you imply that I got the vibration stuck. I never encountered this before, so it most be your faulty software, not me ....
Sorry to be a bit harsh, but you are promoting a commercial piece of software and expecting us to debug it for you (for free?) ....

come on dude stay calm
what is wrong with you, you are the only one having this bug and you are not really respectful !
If you want VanKurt to help you I suggest you to smile
By the way I really love this game VanKurt and it is working perfectly on my HD

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Why should I be respectful to a company that is selling buggy software and promoting it as "free" here?
Maybe I am the only one with this bug, but I never encountered software before (ok, my own faulty code snippets) that requires a reset due to a bug.

he did say "Check it out for free"... not "it IS free"... I dunno, I guess I see the difference in it.

Lemmings

Has anybody got lemmings for the XDA? ive searched all over the show all ive found a rubbish clone and one that crashes/has no levels.
http://www.freewareppc.com/games/lemmings.shtml
this is the only version i've ever seen on pocketpc
that is unless one can get it for one of the emulators for pocketpc
The site no longer has the file !
Got a mirror ?
http://www.madaj.net/files/pocketpc/games/lemmings/
if it's not the right one then google some more
Cheers !
Its only got 4 levels though.. time for google !
EDIT: and there no exit ! i had to restart my xda2 after playing it.
Hi all,
Did anyone found lemmings?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Saadi
yes, used a atari ST emulator.. but it doesnt really work that well
here but mind you that its me whos hosting it and i have a bandwidth limit so if too many people get it the site will be closed
if anybody who gets it can host it somewhere that problem will be solved
http://home1.stofanet.dk/mmichael/rre/game/Lemming Game Arm.zip
there is also this game which is pretty much like lemming aswell
http://www.mobile2day.de/partner/111/details.php?pid=3,921,966,1107,7690
here is a mirror for the lemming-game: http://www.power-on.at/mdaii/freewaregames/Lemming Game Arm.zip
btw: - anyone has done add. levels for this?
Hi all,
I have installed the lemming game but it did not work on my SPV M1000.
I got a black screen.
Can anybody help.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Saadi
The ST emulator one is absolutely perfect and definitely worth a try, however it's hampered by problems with the virtual mouse driver of the emulator (due to an inherent design flaw with the way the real ST uses the mouse). I believe the emu is still being worked on, so maybe there might be a better mouse in the next release.
I am also looking for lemmings so I thought I would bring this thread back to life.
I found one version from 2003 that had 30 levels but was 2 fast on my MDAIII.
Found another were I could not turn off the sound and had to reset to get out off.
Anybody come across a uesable version and could point me to it, please.
WE WANT LEMMINGS!
not thru an emulator cos we can't use stylus.
In this day and age and with a thousand dollar phone we should be able to get lemmings!
lemmings
lemmings
lemmings
lemmings!
let's go!
There is a new clone out called Cavemen from Lightworks Games, it has over a hundred levels but not very difficult but the authors will be releasing harder levels soon. The quality of the game is excellent.
http://www.lightworksgames.com/cavemen/cavemen.aspx
Hum looks like it could be good.
Thanks
Ist nice to look at but a bit to obvious side as you can work out what you need to do just be the fact you only have a few men to do it with thus the options are not realy mind blowing.
Have had it for an close to 2 hours and have got through around 37 levels (about a 3rd). Thus I dont think it would last long and it sort of proves its easy.
Think my kids will like it if they dont go through it to fast), for me well its was worth the 12.95 but only since I have been looking so long for one.
Think I need to see some more levels.
How about this lemmings clone.
Works fine on my Magician.
Unpack the rar file & copy the "IsitarArm" folder to your storage card
Use file explorer to create a shortcut in your games folder.
Enjoy.
Yup
I remeber this one, seems to be way to fast for my BA and a bit like working on a AT when it comes to the graphics.
Thanks for the upload.
I found a 2003 version by Kendall Redburn:
http://s3.amazonaws.com/edownload/free/de/pocket/lemmings1_14.zip
The program start with a simple menu, but after press "Play Level" button appear a screen old paper:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

and it crash.
help!!
hi there, happy new year !
I have the same problem!
when I click on the old paper, it sounds an old door opening and it crashes...
I found this in lemmings.txt:
... If the program is crashing when it starts:
Navigate to the windows folder and look for the file gx.dll If this file is not present, copy the one supplied with this zip into the windows folder of your deviced ...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
but the gx.dll is still present in windows folder
it is not the same but i can't smash it...
does anybody have an idea ??

Mollusk I love you
I'll test it right now, while sitting on the toilet
I was waiting so long for your app
Edit:
GREAT GAME for 0.01 Alpha
Wow, looks nice on Tytn I
Will in future come a VGA version?
nice work!
bye
It should work on VGA (with upscaling). I might do a VGA version later on (not for the buttons though) as it's all vectorial anyways. But I'd rather concentrate on a base portrait QVGA version for now, sorry :/
FANTASTIC.....
Nice job Mollusk...
You'll receive my donation very soon...
And I hope everyone here will do a donation....
Think about the time Mollusk has spent (and he's spending) to developt this fantastic app for us....
I hope people would understand what kind of job Mollusk has done......

Thanks ^^ But to be honest, I would prefer people submitting graphics/scenes/ideas (not fancy stuff but good ideas like the ones I got by PM or posted on the wiki ). What makes this kind of app interesting is having a strong user database submitting stuff, not money

Sorry, but... I have already thanks you using my "way"....
And, don't worry, ideas/scenes will come very soon......
Thanks for this! Gonna work out what to do now...
Just got one problem... If you delete the base (red) bar, you can't replace it... So everything starts falling off the screen. I know you can just restart, but I think the option to make boxes or objects similar to the red one would be beneficial.
Edit: just found out you can so now I look like an idiot
omg very nice! Thanks

You can... you change the icon in the bottom right area of the icons on the left hand side of the screen to toggle whether the objects are fixed (like the red bar at the start) or if they move.

(ignore the arrow - look at the circled icon (its actually squared but you know what i mean)). You click the circled icon to toggle fixed objects/moving objects.
Just worked that out but thanks!
Two ideas:
1) Be able to draw straight lines
2) when selecting/dragging objects the ability to select multiple objects within a rectangle or something similar...
Brilliant! Donation on the way.
Idea-wise - how about being able to zoom out and user a larger space than 320x240?
Surur
Maybe use the d-pad to move around a larger area?
It's a shame our phones don't have an accellerometer (sp?), to detect the physical orientation of the phone. But a cool feature, and purely cool, not that practical, would be to change orientation of the screen and make all the objects fall to the new center of gravity.
Not sure about how possible this would be... But is there any way to build a bunch of accelerometers into a package, attach that to the back of a device and then somehow link it up to an SD card?
An idea based on the one above would be to have a grab style option to move the whole game area around and rotate it.

COMMENT IF YOU FIND ANY BUGS
Not realy any bug but it's just too slow.
Well not slow but it lags, I have like 0,5sec delay from pressing the key to actual sound. Also I would love to see a layered sound engine so that it can handle multiple samples at one time.
Sorry, try closing background apps. .NET is not meant for this type of software.
hi there,
just downloaded and played around with it for a while.
- is there any possibility to play more than one note at a time?i don't mean the touchscreen-wise way but the duration of the current sound being played: it just stops when you press another key without fading out or anything like that.
- you could make the keys larger by removing the two double C's at the right side of each octave and scaling down the application's title. would be much more comfortable to play with fingers then.
but nice work so far...been searching for such a thing for quite a while!
Thanks for downloading.
1. Yes it will be better in next version I'm experimenting with fmodce
2. Maybe.
Works fine with HTC Universal - WM6.1
But, the speed of reaction is a problem for me, cannot playing fast on the piano
thank you very much it's cool tools or game lol
OK I will try to fix delay problem in next version.
Nice
Nice work.
Speed is a bit of a problem, but I like it.
http://mobilespoon.blogspot.com
I see over 500 downloads but no one is commenting .
I love this app its gr8 but like evryone else i wuld say speed shuld be improved a little bit.....
Nice project man. I like guitar sound and it´s cool. Only problem..delay posted for users. No apps in background. Installed in Mio A701 (WWE 6.1 optimized, 520 Mhz, just flashed and light).
Thanx for your work
Frank
, it s cool logiciel
problèm: no speed , sound... thank again
Cool app! Thanks for the effort!
Now what I really need is a music teacher to teach me how to play
Looks great!!!
Trying now, and thanks for share
Cheers
Mozillaxom
Niceeee! Finally you got the update out Was waiting anxiously for this! But why didn't you make the octaves variable? 2 Are still kinda few for playing real piano...well anyways thanx alot!
Nice!!!! Speed is only problem...
Congratulations on the program. I´m having speed issues too. My PDA: Axim X51v (624MHz), WM6.
Besides the speed lag issue, there´s also another: when I press a key it stops the sound of a previously pressed key, wich is annoying.
Try to solve these problems and this will be the best Piano/Guitar/Drums/Violin program ever made to PPC.
Thanks! Will try this on my Qtek 9100.
Thanks for comments. I ll try to make it polyphonic.

[6/10/08] Tippy v.1.1 [Open Source] UPDATED!

I made a little something for you!
Tippy is a bill splitter and tip calculator for Windows Mobile. It was designed to work on all resolutions and to never require use of the stylus.
I improved many things with v.1.1. Lots of bugs were fixed, UI was made easier to use and a big button SIP was added for number input. You should definitively update if you have 1.0!

I was affraid the demand would be too small but seeing people are interested I'll pursue development a bit.
VGA for devices is ready (Force QVGA) but it needs .net CF and I didn't want it around for a first release. I'll also add more currency symbols as suggested on another forum.
Something I did that I would like to see more often is settings saved to text files. It can be edited easily by anyone and leaves nothing after uninstall.
Thank you for sharing!
I am definately going to try this out.
Great idea!

feature request
i still haven't been able to put it on my phone, but i'll have a crack at it tonight... from the screen shot on your site... i like how the tip percentage and number of people are configured with finger friendly buttons... what do you think about adding an easier way to add the amount to tip? i don't know if you've used g-alarm... but maybe something like how you set the alarm time in that? where you have add/subtract buttons below each digit (that way u wouldn't have to bring up the keyboard).
keep it up

That's interesting. I'll try G-Alarm and look for what you are talking about.
I might add a pop-up form with a keypad when you click the text box and see how this work.
I don't like the look very much so I might add a cuter UI (skinnable ) if it doesn't slow down the launch time too much.
I love the idea, and tried it. BUT the calucation is WRONG. Hope it will be fixed soon.

Oops! You are right! Once you start messing with the amount of people present it gets ugly. I'll fix that soon enough!
I don't test my apps enough
I fixed the results so they should be accurate now.
I'm currently working on a big keypad to type the amount. I will also add some languages and currencies and eventually skinnable interface.
UPDATE:
I made the following changes:
-Tip is now accurately calculated
-The amount is entered using a SIP keypad
-The + and - buttons for tip and people are now changing individual digits instead of the whole number. It's much faster and easier to enter it now.
-Changed the look a bit, fixed control resize errors when rotating screen, VGA should work well.
After all I won't add a skinnable UI to save space and keep the app fast and usable.
I only have a few minor fixes left to be done so I should release v.1.1 tomorrow. (I'm on Ubuntu and I'm too lazy to reboot... and Vista sucks).
Ta-da! An update!
A lot of stuff was fixed, including all of the suggestions except languages
looking good! now for a splash of color instead of that plain white background?

Widnows Mobile Tooltip Replacement

Hello,
First of all, I hope am posting in the correct location. Anyways, in windows mobile, we receive different tooltips, ex: call summary report from the provider, credit report, and many others, the ones am talking about are the tooltips that appear on the top right corner of the screen.
These tooltips are so annoying since the buttons they carry are totally not finger friendly. After using "Yota Phone" on my HTC Touch Pro, i noticed that they mapped/changed the default tooltips with the title "PHONE" with their own nice finger friendly one.
Is there any program that does such a thing? searched a lot and couldn't find any. If nobody knows a program that does this, can someone tell me what are the commands/code of those functions/events? maybe i would do a small application for that one.
Thank you

Find me a cure, please doc?
This is an awesome idea!!! I too am suffering from sausage fingers syndrome
I'm not exactly sure how this could be done but I there is another application on XDA that changes the way our Context Menus look. He does is via dll injection and my guess is that that is how to do this also.
This would be awesome, I hate those little popups as well!!!! Maybe you could ask francarl (creator of FingerMenu), your idea sounds similar to what he did.

thank you m.schmidler. I was thinking about how to replace standard tooltip. It will be very useful if someone finds which is the Win32 API (if exists) that opens the tooltip!
I would totally use this! Anyone wanna pick this up?
Great to see you guys interested in this idea, but wish someone could actually implement it. If only creators of "Yota Phone" would reply. Since they successfully changed the "Phone" tooltip.
If only they share the knowledge. already posted a question regarding this matter on their thread, but no replies on that so far.
I will look into this as soon as I get some time. I'm working on wFacebook for now but as soon as I release a new version (hopefully by this weekend) i'll do some research and post my findings.
Add me to the list of the intrigued.
while you're at it, could you have a look at the default windows popups as well? you know, the ones with that incredibly tiny and impossible to hit ok thingy in the top right corner? even *with* a stylus it is annoyingly hard to press ok.
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/miscctrl/ToolTip_Class.aspx or http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2005/02/15/373120.aspx do there help any? I am not a programmer! so if they don't help at all!

Thank you very much computerjunkie, wish you finish the wFacebook program and while i test that for you, you'd do everyone a favor with this program idea
Cheers mate
i hope this will change from within the OS itself in the coming WM 6.5 or at least WM 7. microsoft should hire you, francarl, or buy your FingerMenu code

I mean the standard "Are you sure" type of popups, the square ones in the middle of the screen with the impossible to hit tiny square OK 'button'.

Oh, yeah those too are so damn annoying!
If there are things that amaze me in pocket pc they are the following:
1. PPCs are more than 10 years old, and we still have THAT FEW RAM with SUCH SLOW PROCESSOR?
2. A message to Microsoft, WTF are you doing? We here at XDA can create a better OS with MUCH smarter tools and you as an enterprise suck that much in your own OS?
Hope we get a fix / program for the tooltip AND those middle confirmation messages, like the one that appears when you try to shut down the device. Buttons are non user friendly and still needs a stylus. Idiotic menus/tooltips.
Cheers
Any updates?
