I've officially moved LoSS to the PPC, but it can also be played via PC as well, using the keybored, and if you feel like clicking things, the mouse! :D

A demo is being made, and will soon be released for the PPC. Once this game is finished, I hope to have it on the internet as a Freeware :D.

I do have a question though, seeing as how I dont have a PPC, so therefore I will be playing the game using Mouse and Keybored, can someone please tell me how to get a PPC?

And I have another question. Can the PPC allow for multiple "Mousedown" events? like, for example, if your holding up, will you be able to press "Y" for example, on the control pad?


Important!
The resolution is 640x480 rotate left, so if you want me to change that res please let me know right away before i get to far into making the demo.

Can you explain better? The mouse (screen tap or touch) will works like in your desktop.

Sorry, what I mean to say is, say if I hold my finger down on the "down button", okay? Then, while holding the "down button", can I still press the "Y" button?

The buttons are embeded into the Ged file. Here's a screenshot to show you what I mean.

In other words, does the PPC have the ability to do mutliple touch?

There is no multi touch on Windows Mobile devices (may be in the next Windows Mobile version).

Oh, thats cool, then :D. I have another question for you mak. This is a simple one. When I have tons of levels in the giant black area, (The GE interface), wont it cause lag eventually? How would I prevent that?

You must use "Activation Regions" to tell to the engine the part of the game thats need to be loaded.

Awe okay. But then they'd take up the screen >.>

Hey I have an idea. I'll make a "slider" function :D you press the button, and you sorta move up a little but or you move in the direction you wanna go and he'll go that way :D

I'll need help with that though >.>
