ScummVM v1.0.0 (RC1) (PS2 misc)

Posted by Kojote on 2009-09-01 20:36:49

ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the games, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed!

Some of the adventures ScummVM supports include Adventure Soft's Simon the Sorcerer 1 and 2; Revolution's Beneath A Steel Sky, Broken Sword 1 and Broken Sword 2; Flight of the Amazon Queen; Wyrmkeep's Inherit the Earth; Coktel Vision's Gobliiins; Westwood Studios' The Legend of Kyrandia and games based on LucasArts' SCUMM (Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion) system such as Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, Sam and Max and more. You can find a thorough list with details on which games are supported and how well on the compatibility page. ScummVM is continually improving, so check back often.

As this is a test release, here is a link you might need: http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing/1.0.0

The list of changes which are prepared for you in this release is quite long. The most outstanding ones are:

iiii v2.1 (Wii Game)

Posted by kedo on 2009-09-01 20:38:03

The rules are simple. You take turns with another player to drop red or black pieces into the board. Pieces fall in from the top and slide down to stack up on top of each other. The goal is to get 4 of your pieces touching in a straight line (diagonals also count) before your opponent does. This is similar to Tic-Tac-Toe.

This is a 2 player game. Unless you have a split personality, you will need to install a second player (not included) somewhere near your Wii.

Dop-IOS MOD v2 (Wii Application)

Posted by kedo on 2009-09-01 20:41:09

Dop-IOS MOD is a modification of the application Dop-IOS that allows you to choose which IOS you would like to use to install other IOSs (trucha bugged or not).

While the original Dop-IOS let you install other IOS, it used IOS 249 to do it. Many people felt a certain resentment toward that on which the authors have no comment.

A better solution for all users would've been to allow users to select which IOS they use to install other IOSs. Enter: Dop-IOS MOD.

Aloqa v0.963 (Android misc)

Posted by Kojote on 2009-09-01 20:46:00

Aloqa is a mobile service that proactively notifies you of interesting places, events, and Facebook friends near you. Instead of having to search, you can just look at your phone and see your favorite hotspots, friends, events of interest, and recommended bargains close by. Whenever You Want. Wherever You Are.

Aloqa is based on a simple belief: It is hard to "search" on your mobile phone. When you are on the go, you shouldn't have to constantly keep using your phone as a browser to pull information. Instead, you should just be proactively informed of things around you that you care about. Wherever you are. Without entering a keyword. Or your location. With Aloqa, you can just look at your phone and without ever touching your keyboard see what's around you in real time:

* Your favorite coffee shop(s) closest to you.
* Fast food places you like.
* Gas stations near you.
* Friends from your social network in the vicinity.
* Parties, movies, theaters, activities around you.
* Places to take your kids.
* Wifi Hotspots.
* Potential dates or business contacts in your neighborhood (if you want to know!).

Wiz Cradle (Wiz misc)

Posted by Kojote on 2009-09-02 00:24:34

andY had some time on his hands during weekend so he made the presumably first cradle for the Wiz.

Everything is still very "beta" but the basic functions such as USB HOST / HUB and connect the serial (with integrated
MAX3232 converter) is in a "beta release" already successfully possible.

An old, broken F100/F200 Cradle served as base.

And here is a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YV9Nlx1wcPw

MTCMatch (29-08-2009) (GP2x Game)

Posted by Kojote on 2009-09-02 00:47:24

This is a 3-Match game like Animatch on GP2x Wiz. The goal is to destroy among number of buttons displayed on right side in 30 seconds. Every match increase time, but only to maximum of 30 seconds.

It is not 100% complete yet, missing high score list, more action in level, but very playable.
