Guest tcwatkins Posted March 22, 2004 Report Posted March 22, 2004 You know what a perfect game for the smartphone would be? A port of the old Atari ST game OIDS. :) So which programing genius wants to do it? Can't be too hard, someone ported it over to the Mac a while back. Don't crowd, there's room for all!
Guest midnight Posted March 22, 2004 Report Posted March 22, 2004 theres already a game very similar to oids.... G-Pod
Guest tcwatkins Posted March 23, 2004 Report Posted March 23, 2004 theres already a game very similar to oids.... G-Pod Tried it. Not nearly as good as the old Atari ST game.
Guest Jayenkai Posted March 23, 2004 Report Posted March 23, 2004 So, what's great about Oids? I'm intrigued, having never played it, but from the looks of it, it's like an Advanced Thrust, or something? Any really good stuff that it had??
Guest tcwatkins Posted March 23, 2004 Report Posted March 23, 2004 I don't know how to compare it to other games because I really don't play games. You would fly along the surface, sometimes in caves, landing near certain buildings. Little figures would run out and into your ship. If you shot a figure, it would burn. Strange to see the little guys on fire, running. You would have to blow up defenses but have to land for fuel sometimes. The gravity was right, so if you didn't thrust you would sink to the surface. At the end, you would dock at the mother ship and the little figures would get off, waving good bye. lol Yeah, sounds stupid but it was very well done.
Guest tcwatkins Posted March 23, 2004 Report Posted March 23, 2004 Damn, you may be right Midnight! I'll install rocket elite on my i600 when I get a few minutes.
