Guest lutzh Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 thanks for that fantastic pipemania-clone! i already got it - but i can't find the pause key :-) cheers, lutz
Guest ppcstudios Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Thank you for buying the Smartphone version Lutz! You're actually the very first person to buy it, so congratulations! You can pause the game buy bringing up the instruction screen (use the softkey buttons to move to this row of buttons). You can also go back to the home screen at any time by pressing the Home button. You can return to the game whenever you have time to play more. :lol:
Guest Gorskar Posted November 13, 2004 Report Posted November 13, 2004 Its a good game - cant really go wrong for $5.95 Graphics are good - music i thought was really good to start with but started annoying me later on - fortunately can turn off easy enough. Quite fun - I need more practise though, having not got very far with the beta version. I still think the option to put start the cursor on the last track placed rather than moving accross from the top left corner with every new bit of track would have been worthwhile however. I guess there had to be some compromise made for convertingthe PPC version to smartphone and this was it... Overall if you're after a cheap action/puzzle game good to fill free time, with some old skool fun then this fits the bill nicely. :lol: I might do a proper review once I file down the original SPV cradle I've got to fit an e100 (somehow lost my e100 cradle :oops: )
