(thanks ljtj28 for the new link to the .RAR and screenshots, I hadn't been able to get back on the computer I built the code onto since I posted this thread initially.)

Also: known issues so far: There is a bug when you load the game. Your Zune will likely flicker at the load screen. If you just click the play/pause (or center 'A' ) button then start moving the touch pad to the left and right(or up and down) it will load the game. (thanks again ljt28.)

[ljtj28]

It won't load onto my Zune for some reason. When I launch the application (which is called clock by the way, you might want to change that), it freezes at the loading screen then I have to restart my Zune.

[agestone]

i will test it for bugs

[Superaison]

You stole my idea lol.


Thanks for coding it.

[DiNoGames]

Won't work here too.. When starting up my screen just flickers.
Pressing the button turns the screen black and the game exits.
The code tells me that you can just move a sprite right now, am I right?

[miceylulu]

The loading screen does flicker, but I just pressed A and it went. It works! Thanks for this

edit: Oh! And my friend wants to know if there's touch support for her 8GB.

ok then i cant get thr rar to open, it asks me to choose a program from a list. i need a zip

[ZuneMan4]

Hey sorry, i am kind of used to the zip files. How do you deal with the rar files, or could you get a zip file up.

[ShotgunSnipist]

If you can't unzip RAR then download this.
http://www.7-zip.org/
Its a free program that lets you unzip many different formats. =D

[DCzuneboy]

and if i knew how to use that, im sure it would help

[ShotgunSnipist]

You just install it. Then your computer will recognize RAR.
You can't tell me you were able to get games on your zune but are not smart enough to install one program.

Download link doesn't work.
And i'm not quite sure i get the description...

[DCzuneboy]

The download limit has been reached for this file. Please contact the sender and ask them to resend the file.


The link you have clicked is not available.

[ShotgunSnipist]

does anyone that successfully got the game want to post Screen shots?

[xkngofqnz]

i got it onto my zune and its a zclock? o_O
and then when i tried to play it it just froze my zune

[WickedFabala]

i cant get it to deploy like a font is gone or somthing? thats happened to other games i tryed to get on my zune anyone know why?

[ShotgunSnipist]

Yeah it means your computer doesn't have that font installed.
Most of the time the game designer will include the font in the zip file (in which case all you have to do is drag it into C:/Windows/Fonts) But other times they don't. What font does it say you are missing?

[Rockman87]

It says the download limit has been reached! I want to download, but can't

[DCzuneboy]

i just want the thing to work or ill tear my F***ING eyes out

[ljtj28]

Here is a link to the install file. I had it saved so I uploaded it

There is a bug when you load the game. My Zune flickers at the load screen. If you just click the play/pause button then start moving the touch pad to the left and right it will load the game.

This game is basically that etch-a-sketch toy. It could use some enhancements like allowing you to pick your pen up and then putting it down again. Right now if you click the middle button the screen clears.
