SFCave competition for the unlucky people without 9210

For all those people who are unlucky enough to not have a communicator.
Enjoy SFCave as a java applet.

Opening score: 1665

😊

(BTW: try finding a slow pc to play it on because it's almost impossible on this 1.8 😃 )

I'm not even going to attempt it, I'm hopeless! I tried play-testing the 9210 version, but I was so bad it wasn't worth it!

mmmz
that was a stupid move ...

It's available for the 9210, and Ewan has plans to make it more generally available... I think he's just working on the controls on different devices - on the 9210 the space bar is the control button.

Ewan to the rescue again 😃

as for controls, the 5 or 0 key can be the control, afterall its only one control needed. it would be too easy using the joystick's up & down function.

On the 7650 though that means having the slider open. I don't know about other users, but I prefer applications that I can use without having to open it.

This is awesome!!! First try and i got 2199(Well,after i needed couple of trys to figure out the controls 😃 )

If this happens on the 7650 i'd preffer it with the slide closed,why not use the soft buttons?

I haven't learnt OPL yet, but I believe Series 60 allows for one app that will run on all the machines with the individual machine tailoring the app to its own layout. I could be completely wrong on this mind, but if that's the case, then it's not so easy to specify button controls.

The above might be a figment of my imagination or it might be taken from things Ewan's said.

The Series 60 OPL is missing one element from the runtime (Asynchronus controls) so when that's in place, SFCave for S60 will be released. In fact, it's already written in preparation for geteventA to be added to the command list...
