New Windows Phone 7 game, I like the snazzy 2.5 d effects

Jonathan Yong from the same shores as myself (although a bit further north in Scotland) has just posted a video of his current state of his Windows phone 7 game.

Check it out here:

I must say I like it.  Seems Charlie Kindle, Shawn H and Brandon agree.

Personally I really like the 2.5 D effect shown and really love the gravity beams coming from the Alien spaceships, bit more work and it’ll be ready for the marketplace, one to watch.

Just goes to show what the hardware is capable of (even after watching the Harvest Demo).  Shameless plug for a dev phone but you have to admit, the game looks to be coming along nicely.

 

 

 

Windows Phone 7 Aftermath – Manchester

Paul Foster recently (yesterday) presented at a NextGen-UK user group event and wowed the audience with the marvels of Windows Phone 7 and the marketplace.

For me it was great as Paul went and put my tutorial code on to his Phone development device adn apart from the touch controls getting broken (due to a dev build issue, not the actual code) the sample ran great and Paul was able to show off the particle effects to the crowd.

Well that is odd, well I've added the link separately.    The preview however looks fine in the Blog post preview. Oh well something to look into.
