Guest Coolbox Posted October 14, 2004 Report Posted October 14, 2004 Hi I play "Atomic bomberman" alot with my frinds and was wondering if this game has been or can be portet for smartphones. It is a very cool game even in single player. I think it is a quite simple game so it should be possible to port....I think.

I think it is a quite simple game so it should be possible to port....I think. it's only possible to PORT a game if there is Source available... even if an application only says HI to you and then quits it can't be ported UNLESS there is source.. though if it was made for a console too you might wanna try an emulator [cry's out to paul] we should make some rules about these questions :S [/cry's out to paul]
Guest maxh2003 Posted October 15, 2004 Report Posted October 15, 2004 Think it's just a language thing. Since Bomberman source code isn't available, it wouldn't be possible to PORT it. However it would be possible to REWRITE it on SPV. Paraphrased from Google: Port ... refers to translating a piece of software to bring it from one type of computer system to another, e.g. to translate a Windows program so that is will run on a Macintosh. ... and for what it's worth, I agree, we need a Bomberman clone for SPV. Maybe I should have a stab at writing one...!
Guest gravity Posted October 17, 2004 Report Posted October 17, 2004 I don't know if I'm the only one, but it pisses me off when someone makes a post about a port request. It's almost as if they think it's just a matter of recompiling the code.
Guest midnight Posted October 17, 2004 Report Posted October 17, 2004 heh, i'm just fed up of ports, wheres the nice original games? ^_^
Guest agent.m Posted October 17, 2004 Report Posted October 17, 2004 I don't know if I'm the only one, but it pisses me off when someone makes a post about a port request. It's almost as if they think it's just a matter of recompiling the code. its worse when they write the subject as if the game is complete :x
Guest Coolbox Posted October 17, 2004 Report Posted October 17, 2004 I am very sorry if I have disturbed your use of this forum. I didn't know that it was a problem in here. I will never mention game porting again then:-)
Guest MaJiK Posted October 17, 2004 Report Posted October 17, 2004 Gotta say - that all seems a bit harsh. Some people are not aware that porting a game requires source (although technically it doesnt, it just requires someone to re-write the code). Give the guy a break - he likes the game and was asking if it exists/is possible. [shux] its like everyone is a programmer! [/shux]
Guest De-GeXte Posted October 17, 2004 Report Posted October 17, 2004 Give the guy a break - he likes the game and was asking if it exists/is possible. He just had a nice idea and wanted to share it with us. He cant help it that he is unaware of the consequences of his question. I didn't know either a port is so much work, seemed like a little something to me. How would i know? :D BTW i hope a bomberman clone will come to sp soon, i like the game too ^_^
Guest gravity Posted October 22, 2004 Report Posted October 22, 2004 You can always get the Java version, as far as I know, such a game has not been ported to smartphone. But I guess you could always wait for AIM productions to release something similar, since they like making little games for smartphone.
Guest Coolbox Posted October 22, 2004 Report Posted October 22, 2004 yep I have the Java version already but its not quite as fun as the real one hehe. I really hope they will make a version for the smartphone...its a classic almost like tetris:-)
Guest mattie01 Posted October 22, 2004 Report Posted October 22, 2004 where can i get the java version of the game from?
Guest agent.m Posted October 23, 2004 Report Posted October 23, 2004 I am very sorry if I have disturbed your use of this forum. I didn't know that it was a problem in here. I will never mention game porting again then:-) my comment wasnt aimed at you as wrote the right subject matter ^_^ theres nothing wrong with making requests.
Guest Coolbox Posted October 23, 2004 Report Posted October 23, 2004 Ok thanks agent.m:-) mattie01 I think you can buy it on several homepages where they sell Java games. I don't remember where I bought mine but if I find out I will tell you. It is from when I had my Ericsson T610 hehe.

Maybe this will help (GPL'd Win32/Linux Code)..... Clanbomber :wink:
