[APP] Synth - Windows 8 Development and Hacking

A while ago, I was drunkely perusing the Windows Store and I came across an app called "Mini Piano", which is an effortless semi-broken piece of crap of a virtual piano. In a drunken rage I decided to one up it, it kind of went overboard and I wrote this synth backed piano.
Doesn't support multitouch yet (because I have no WinRT/Win8 tablet to test with) and trying to play a thousand long sustaining notes at once, it may choke due to lack of CPU power (theoretically unlimited polyphony).
Have a go at it! http://apps.microsoft.com/webpdp/en-US/app/synth/a357594b-5cab-4fff-9942-1a96ec3ab4ce
(I know, I know... I need to find the time to create more presets.)

Chuckled when I saw this. Gee, wonder why they're such a great deal?
The Rhodium section of xda is not the best place to grab sales for the Fuze, but I bet there are tons of people who haven't heard of the TP2 who are going to be kicking themselves in a couple of weeks.
I'm not so sure the ads are clever enough to know that the Rhodium is more advanced than the Fuze and as such might not appeal.
Glad you found it amusing though!
funny, i deactivated all ads,
but the only thing i canĀ“t deactivate ist the
T-Mobile iphone 3 s flash-ad, so all i see the whole day is

Yaay for AddArt!

Falldown for Windows Mobile

A long time ago...
There was a game called "Falldown". It was mostly known from MirageOS on some popular Texas Instruments callculators. There's also a remake for the iPhone/iPod Touch.
Basically, it's a really simple -but fun- game.
Description:
Fall down through the holes and avoid getting squished at the top. Score points by staying alive as long as possible.

Available in Android market for Galaxy S devices for free.
Download here
P.S: I would really appreciate if you rate/review it and spread the word. Also, if you encounter an issue, post it in this thread and I'll do all I can to figure out and solve the issue.
P.P.S: It does have in-app payment but that is strictly optional. It is NOT a limited trial or something. You can play through entire levels without paying.
P.P.P.S: It IS a continuous work in progress. New levels, weapons, enemies and device support coming soon.
Will try looking really good

Home Automation App Concept [ WP7 ]

This week we take a stab at creating a concept for a Home Automation App on windows phone.
The welcome screen allows users to log in

once logged in they have access to the list of devices they can add to the app and the various automated systems ( security , climate control, etc )
The handy notification screen provides a warning if there is any major events..
what do you guys think ?
Is the System behind already existing?
Great concept,seems like a lot of thought went into this!
Very impressive indeed!

Nothing noticed yet. I'll keep my eye out, thanks.
Edit: Where the heck can I find the Play Store entry!? Checked on the phone, on the computer, tried Activity Launcher...
Nevermind. Found it through an article from last month. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.as.oss
Mine had not automatically updated yet, even after I triggered the several apps that had updates. Kinda wish it would go ahead and update the system apps at the same time.
