I only know the Game from the name but it looks interesting.
But It also looks to slow for me, especialy at 800MHz OC. It seems to be still a simple 2D game with some sprites and a background. What does eat all the Pandora Power? The little physics thingy?

Hi,

Just to report that the demo version seems not to work

The game starts, there is a white rectangle in the upper left corner...

I can click on "start", select my profile, a new game, difficulty, but then I only have a white screen with "Back" in the upper left corner and "next" in the upper right corner. If I click on "back" I reach the level selection screen, with a big white rectangle in the middle. If I click on "start" I can hear a sound, the screen goes red, I lose a life and I go back to the level selection screen

btw, touchscreen loses its calibration quickly...

On a side note, my left nub starts to make a weird noise and feels "sandy"

What a day...

Bye, Magic Sam

The touch screen could possible be fixed with the DJWillis workaround...

I think the lighting need fixing a little too... I just ran Gish on my desktop to compare and something's not quite right...
I'll see if I can take a look over the source tomorrow!

EDIT: It's like the lights overlap on Pandora creating lighter spots... On PC it's one level of lightness.

I've untarred the linux vesion of the files into the gish appdata directory, but after setting cpu speed it just exits. Could it be permissions? I think my SD is FAT32. Is this a problem? Clues?

check the log in /tmp

Aha - so that's where stdout goes! Well I guess I did something wrong, because I've got this:

cp: cannot stat `default/*': No such file or directory
cp: `default/..' and `.' are the same file
./gish: line 1: syntax error: "(" unexpected

I can't see a folder called deault anywhere. Do I need to use the windows or mac version, or something else maybe?

I did this:

Download linux version of gish (tarball)
Extract - produces a folder called gish153
Copy contents of gish153 to appdata/gish

I feel like I am missing something fundamental!

Thanks for the help

./gish: line 1: syntax error: "(" unexpected

makes me wonder if the pnd is corrupt
default is directory in the pnd that i use to hold files that i want copied to the appdata folder like config files.

I should have quoted the whole runpnd output.. before that there was

not mounted on loop yet, doing so
LoopMountedon:
/dev/loop3
Filetype is Squashfs
sudo mount -t squashfs /dev/loop3
mounting union!
Filesystem is vfat

So I'm still wondering about permissions. But I will try downloading the pnd again and report back...

EDIT: Just downloaded and tried again... same results

Everything is owned by root and I can't change it... I blame FAT32..

Funny thing is that if I run it without data it gives me a white screen with some grey blocks... presumably due to missing sprites... I took a guess and pressed the rightmost one and it exited, so it must be something with my data files.

I will download the windows version and try that. Hope it's a zip file :S

Okay, tried the windows version and it works fine, so don't know what the problem was there.

Thanks, can't wait to start playing!

Pokeparadox spotted my typo in the lighting, i fixed it up and theres a new pnd and source will be updated.

Odd, I had to delete gish and gish64 before the game would lauch, caught me by surprise why the game wouldn't launch, no error from the command line either.

Amazing Game!!!
Thanks for a rocking port, one of the better new ports (not on wiz-gp2x-canoo).

It would be the "gish" file causing problems. If you leave the file gish in the appdata. The Pandora finds that instead of the exe contained in the PND file, this is a feature to allow devs tests changes to their apps more easily without having to repackage the PND each time.
So yes you were replacing the ARM Linux binary for an x86 linux one... that won't work

What are the thoughts on the editor? I contains a good deal of opengl to convert and could be done, but would anyone actuality use it on the pandora rather than on the pc. Is it worth my time?

[mth411]

Don't waste your time on the editor, people can just use the desktop version for that.

Better to use your time working on the next awesome Pandora port
