[APP][05.05.2011] Supergames Mobile - v1.1 [W|Q|VGA][CAB]

Hi,

I've created a little app to play flash games on WM devices.
With Supergames Mobile you can made your flash games collection simply.



--------------------------------------------------------------
Features:
Finger friendly
Portrait and Landscape mode
Audio Volume On/Off
Customizable skins
Supports QVGA (240x320), VGA (480x640) and WVGA (480x800) resolution

Requirements:
Windows Mobile 6.x
.Net Compact Framework 3.5
Flash Player 7 PPC (no Flash Lite!)

Pay attention, not all games will be playable on ppc because of incompatibility with Flash Player 7 or too low performance.

--------------------------------------------------------------

How to:
1) Download SupergamesMobile's CAB, (QVGA or VGA/WVGA version);
2) Install it on your device or microSD;
You will have two Directory ("games" and "skin") and one Exe ("Supergames Mobile");
3) put your favourite games (.swf files) in "games" directory;
4) (optional *) in the same directory ("games") you can put an image thumbnail (.jpg files) for any games you add
(image file name must be the same of game file name: tris.swf -> tris.jpg);
5) start "Supergames Mobile" and enjoy.

Note:
(*) if you don't put thumbnails the app will show a standard image "no_thumbnail.jpg" placed in "skin" directory.
You have to resize image thumbnails (I use 200x150pixel images for WVGA/VGA or 100x75pixel images for QVGA)

--------------------------------------------------------------

Please tell me:
1) I think that your app is...
2) I've tested your app on...
3) I've addes these games... (if they are not too low, in other words: playable)
4) I know that your are Italian but you make some english mistakes: ...

I am running this on my HTC HD2. A few games I tried don't work, I've tried a few of the ones listed, and they work good.

Thank you uzziah0 for your reply. Now I can add "Tested on HTC HD2".
As I said, unfortunately, some games don't work due to incompatibility with Flash Player 7 for PPC or low performance.

I hope you'll find useful this my little app

If you find any other flash games that work good please tell us

-------------------------------

As soon as possible i will release v1.1 with full W/Q/VGA support, direct games start from explorer (by tap on file such as a flash player) and some other tested games links.

on mega. it works only in potrait mode. on landscape, nothing happen.

Click to collapse

With "nothing happen" you mean that there was no app rotation when you click on "Rotation button" (from app menu) or when you rotate smartphone?

I finded a problem with anticlockwise and I have solved it (with version 1.1). I don't know if it is the same problem of your HTC Mega so:
Can you tell me your HTC Touch 2 rotation setting (clockwise or anticlockwise)?
Have you tried to rotate screen first and then start app?

Thank you for your help

Some of the games I tried didn't work because they were set to not work if downloaded (screen said something about not working if downloaded or something).

Click to expand...

Click to collapse

Problem fixed.

uzziah0 said:

Others only work OK if I change to landscape, so if you have problems try landscape.
A couple might be looking for input from a keyboard, since the screen taps didn't seem to do anything.
And a couple the screen taps seems off or slow or something, because I could not "hit" the target when tapping the screen.
I think most of this is trying to run a flash game designed for a full sized computer (a PC) on something so much smaller.

Click to collapse

Unfortunately flash games are all made for PC so we have to find games with right compromise between fludity and playability. (I also think that if we could have Flash Player 10.1 on our WM, games will be more playable)

Please try new version (v1.1), I think that all will be ok now.

Pokemon Tower Defense in SWF format works with a newer flash. Is there a way to use flash lite to run the game? Here is the link to the game download Pokemon Tower Defense

I'm sorry but games compatibility do not depend on my App.
As I said in the first post, games compatibility depend most on Flash Player 7 for PPC.
You have try to ask to the game's author for a Flash Player 7 PPC compatible version (unfortunately, as I know, Adobe do not plan to release Flash Player 10.1 for PPC )

Awesome app, thanks!

just a little note, if you put .jpg files which are too big, it may take forever to start the application or you may need to reboot. (tested on my japanese touch pro)

Click to collapse

Thank you hasanma!

You have to resize image (I use 200x150 pixel images for WVGA or 100x75 pixel images for QVGA). I don't tell anything (about image resize) in the first post because I tought that was implied.

1- Great app
2- Treo 750
3- none

Your app works on Treo 750 with custom rom Hermann 2.3(WM 6.5.x). But no game load. Only a blank screen.

thanks anyway

Click to collapse

Thank you RatusNatus!

If you see games on app menu but when you try to play (by tap on them) you only see a blank screen (and the app menu bar), I think you have problem with Flash Player. Have you tried one of the games from my first post? Can you give me some other information on your problem?
