Task Facade, previously known as Dynamo 3, is a cool, animated task manager for your PocketPC 2003/05/06 device. Say goodbye to boring text lists of running programs and instead manage your programs by sliding in images of all your running applications onto your screen. For each program on your device an image is saved and when you click the hotkey they all zoom onto your screen. Simply click the one you want and it will increase to fill the screen. Quickly seeing all the running programs is far more efficient than having to read through a text-based task list so Task Facade can make task switching a much faster, and cooler, experience.

Task Facade also allows you to quit programs from inside the image view meaning that it does everything your old text-based program manager could do.

As well as just looking generally cooler, Task Facade offers far more customization than before and allows the whole application to be controlled using either your PDAs hardware keys or the stylus.

Release notes from atari2600land:

I tried to make there be a bonus item appear after you hit a troll, but if it gets in the playfield a whole bunch of times before it finally lands in a place where there's no playfield, it flashes like crazy, trying to get to a place where there's no playfield. If you can think of a way to make it stop doing that, please tell me, otherwise I won't implement it.

atari2600land has posted an update of his Atari 2600 homebrew game "Jack and the Beanstalk" which is based upon a fairy tale with the same name.

Release notes from atari2600land:

Another solution is to make the item bigger than a pfblock, which is what i've done here. If it's out of reach now, remember that I'm redoing the playfields at the end, and I'll make sure to not have 2 pfblocks be next to each other horizontally and vertically.

Help Doris collect hearts, but watch out for the moving platforms! Also, don't wait too much, or the heart will lose its energy and it will be game over!

The idea is this: Using Tetris-like blocks, fill in a square. To move the pieces around, use the joystick and to place one, use fire. To start over again, press the reset switch.

Release notes:

New version with title screen and timer that goes up to 60 minutes. Also added you can't place the pieces on top of other ones. I'll be making more puzzles like the first one in the future
