Worms for touch hd - Touch HD Themes and Apps

Hello guys!
Does anybody know if there is a version of Worms that works fine with hd? Maybe some great xda developers could make one? I've tried to install some versions but there is a problem with steering (no arrows - hardware buttons)
**** I can't live without this game PS Sorry for my English

Look at the sticky about compatibilities, or inside the wiki, links below. HiH.

no solution
Thank You, so now there is no solution

This might be extreme, but to save a life, you can use the arrow keys on a BT keyboard for most things, why not steering worms?

you can download SNAILS instead .
It's pretty like WORMS

Hi, i was looking for somethign similar, looks interesting.
Question is, does it work without buttons, only touchscreen ?
if there is ONER game i would like to have on my phone, that is worms. i could play for hours (depends on battery life though .. )

it's fully touch optimized
I play it only with stylus.

does it play on wvga? do u mean snails reloaded from pdamill?

Hi, snails seems not to be free... so perhaps it is better to buy worms if it exists for thouch HD.
Ciao
Fred

I would really like to play on my HTC HD at this great peace of game ( worms ).. would it be possible to add a virtual pad on the space left by the game on the screen? maybe i'm just dreaming
I put in the directory of the game the file WWPSave from the Elf thread and i managed to use only volume button to jump...

I can highly recommend Atomic Cannon 3.0

This is a worms style game but tanks instead of worms. It has some great graphics and some cool physics, with lots of different weapon types (including animal bombs, similar to the sheep from worms). full screen wvga also!

snails is almost exacly like worms and works perfectly on the HD, only its not wvga though.
try it out there a demo available to.

every feature of the game works with touch control. you will need the stylus tho i fear.
ok, maybe there is something i am not getting, i think it was mentioned in other links but i didnt understand so i'll make this as a simple question:
is there software that can display the 5 directional keys (up down left right ok) on screen and can be used to replace the physical keys found on other htc phones??

hi there can yu help were can you get pools games form? many thanks deadly
Homola...Do you mind if i pm you as well for the pool game for my Blackstone?

Call To ALL Developers!!!!

Hello, Xda-developers....
I have been looking for interesting games for my Touch HD and Touch Pro and have sadly not been impressed by all of them... There have been some that stand out in my eyes, but not alot. So my plan is to create a group of developers to join in and make a series of great games for our Touch HD and (Touch Pro and Diamond). If anyone would like to help me in this process please do message me or post a reply... I have great graphic skills... but do not know much about developing windows mobile.
I have come up with a quick (outline of what some of the games will be) The shot is posted below...
again please contact me if you are interested in helping..
Current Developers:

I could be tempted to write either a TIME PILOT clone or a PINBALL game in either PPL (very easy) or C# if someone wanted to collaborate on graphics and Game play

There should be many games if we have VGA games emulator => WVGA fix (which already exist) which uses those 160x480 pixels as a virtual dpad like this
http://upload.csrune.com/files/dpadsip669.PNG
. So if you are really able to make some new game, then maybe you can this ? Because if you can, it would be much more usefull than one new game. With this, we can play loads of VGA games which needs dpad.
my hole point is to make a game specifically for the HD... which uses only hd functions so it can be fully optimized....
arent there any developers interested???

HD's virtual touch pad?!

hi there
i wondered if someone can make some virtual buttons and nav pad at the bottom of screen so that we can use it in games and other programs
cause all u know that the devise realy lacks the d-pad!!
(something like what HD has in its standard keyboard but more applicable)
for example make a virtual input keyboard but without any alphabetic buttons! instead only nav and some big usefull buttons!
it would make a real change in hd's programing and gameing!!!
thanx in advance
i put some pics for an idea !! sorry for bad quality
thats no problem... emulators have that. problem is that the touch hd don't have multitouch... you have the choice... move ... or jump! that means no jumping forward with sonic or mario...
navigationkeyboard is already integrated in touchpal 3.5.
Ohhh, and this whole time I thought the only thing stopping people from playing games which require hardware input was the lack of a decent software input! Does this mean that the HD will never be able to play games which require more than one input at the same time e.g. racing games (accelerate and steering for example)?
That is such a shame
volume up = speed
volume down = break
virtual touch pad = driving around
See this thread for a great work-in-progress to address this issue

Never thought of that! Does that mean you could run a game at VGA resolution with the virtual D-Pad at the bottom of the screen (480x160 pixels)?
Can I say bluetooth gamepad?

whu pay 88$ when you can pay less... just found this on a quick ebay search
that's not just for games!! it's needed in every program like file explorer and etc. to navigate through files!! u cant select a file with fingers without being run! or while typing or etc.
i know the org. keyboard has it ,but something more comfortable!! dude!

The Touch HD won't fit in that chainpus gamepad unless you chop it apart and mod it to extend further. I saw a thread somewhere else where someone did that, but that's way beyond my ability. I'm considering a Wii controller. Would just need some way to attach it. Maybe just a small clipboard to rest them both on or something.

No and no.
It is a problem. It is in emulators (i have myself draw dpad in morphgear) but it doesnt exist for normal VGA games.
and you are wrong about that multitouch problem. There can be place between up arrow and right arrow which will work as right up button. Also if you click on 2 places on HD, it will touch the centre of the points you touched, so it is basically multitouch
Well maybe with the increasing number of these devices having larger screens and no physical buttons someone will start coming out with more controllers.
What about an analogue slider input, like the joystick on the PSP? IMO that would be really cool.

How to Show off the HD

Can anyone reccommend any apps which dont necessarily serve a purpose but are just cool to have on the Touch HD? Things like the diamond hologram and the lightsaber? Thanks.
btw, im sure this has been posted many times before but in this thread we're looking for cool gadget-type apps as opposed to games or tools which are useful.:
Look for the hologram software prepared for the Diamond. It works on the HD but you cannot zoom in/out because of the lack of hardware keys.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=450571
Thanks, but I kinda already mentioned the Hologram...
Sorry kinda skimmed through your post.
What about I Am Rich? Cloned from the famous iPhone app?
Also transfer some really high definition shots which are particularly in focus and sharp (|theres a difference|) and show em to people. Make sure they're bright too. The little HD screen is reall HD (high definition) in contrast to whats out there right now. Sure the Experia has the same screen resolution (480x800) but the screen is too small to actually allow one to enjoy the high resolution.
i always liked the guitar and piano tuning programe its freeware and always cool esp if your friends acan actually play and instrument. do a search its in the list of working programs
I lot of what you need is covered here in a similar thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469782&highlight=demo
Ive already got some nice pictures to show off the HD, but thanks for the idea.
The thread was kinda helpful but towards the end made me feel as if i had chosen the wrong device (touch HD over iPhone) as, at the end of the day, im the type of person who wants an entertainment device as opposed to one gears towards productivity. The Touch HDs GPU doesnt help things either...
Anyway, back on topic, any other apps? Thanks for your help so far
well u already mentioned apps like diamond saber , diamond beer .
u can try omniano , if u havent already
other windows mobile apps like g alarm or g watch made by members here look cool on the big screen .
or i contacts / sms chat
cant think of more apps but u can edit touch flo 3d use transparent clock or different themes etc. or maybe winterface ... it looks good on the hd
Any more Apps?

That one was nice
I find the best way to show off the HD is to have a high resolution, high quality video, then play a bit of it to people. That gets wows! I've had mine since mid November and it still makes me go "wow" when I play videos encoded using the Encoder GUI from this forum!
That really does work better than it sounds. Thanks.
Any others?
Try MusicID - a guaranteed hit.
It used to be freely available, however there was some discussion whether it was freeware of shareware.
Music ID is awsome... I honestly dont know how I managed without it. Trying to recall half a lyric I thought I heard while I was drunk. I downloaded it a couple of weeks ago. It's still free as far as I know. Obviously it connects to the net to get the data, so if you're not on WiFi then you'll be charged by your network for data.
"quickmark" is good fun. (just mentioned it in another thread) It's a kind of barcode scanner, but only scans 2d barcodes. Still good fun, especially creating them for friends.
any others?
It's amusing to offer to save their internet connection, by setting up your WM phone as a Wifi router and allow them to use your connection.
Most amusing for iPod Touch users who don't have a data connection at all, but can use Wifi!

particular games, apps

I've looked through search and ive looked at the list of applications on the wiki, which im sorry is terrible.
whats the point in having something called eagleeyes when no one that read that would know what it was?
anyway i'm wanting to know if there is a website like http://www.ipfun.org/ or http://www.iphone-shaq.com/ or http://www.iphonewiki.com.au/iphone-games/
they seem to show all the apps and games and what not for iphone as well as tell you about them and whats their good for or not.
i'm having great difficulty finding the programs i would like.
a good gps that works in australia
a few good games such as texas holdem
a good media player that will play my music videos and movies (coreplayer doesnt work as the picture is all jitty and jumps everywhere)
a what of making the volume button not so sensitive as i seem to press it by accident all the time.
and a good weather app that will work for my town, the ones you go to online have my town in them but the one on the htc touch hd dont have one within 200kms of me.
i'm also sorry if i offend or offended anyone i dont mean to, this site is a great website but it isnt in the slightest user friendly at all.
why cant there just be an XDA HTC TOUCH HD wiki, go in there and then its a whole website on what you need and want for the htc touch hd?
1) ROM
2) Games
3) themes
4) applications
it would be so much easier for everyone i think...
mods please remove this if this is innappropriate, im not flaming anyone in particular just voicing my opinion/questions/help.
xtrakt ...awesome game for the HD and its a MUST HAVE - Full screen too
Real Dice MC poker to solve your texas holdem cravings.. downside is that it is not full screen but everything else works fine
Resco Bubbles ......great game similar to Teeter
Archibalds Adventure works great!!!
Boom Blox too..
Pocket Uno ..... Monopoly World .... Resco Brain Games.... Virtual pool Mobile..
These are the games i tested so far and works without any problems....
Happy gaming.....watch the battery usage though

This hasn't been done as it would take too long. List in wiki at present tells you which apps/games work. Its up to you to find out what they are.
Wiki is available for everyone to amend. If this means so much to you why not amend wiki yourself and create this improved list with descriptions of games etc
I agree that Apple help their customers better and provide information I would think was basic. Hopefully HTC will learn and hopefully improve
Would agree with previous person that Xtrakt was well worth getting on your HD, awesome game as is Need for Speed Undercover!!
Good luck on your new list!!!
Simply check my signature !
Btw, i can't make run bloombox on dutty ROM :S
well thats a good response from everyone, thankyou very much, ive never ammended wiki or posted on wiki before so ill give it a go and see what i can come up with.
ive now found a fiar few games, what about all the types of games that come on the iphone? like ifishing and the likes. there aqre a lot that use the gyrator type style to play the game. most of the games and apps ive found are real buggy and crash or arnt full screen. it seems that the iphone has better games and easier usage but the htc has more in it as its a windows device. it just seems really hard to get things to work!
just post the games, there are many developers that can fix the bugs andmake them HTC HD READY !
thaanxz to all
especially to you, WinterKnights
not too many for wvga out there yet im afraid. These are the games i have so far that work full screen 15 puzzle, all-in hold em by birdsoft, boom blox, monopoly here and now, pocketgrandmaster 4, resco bubbles, tiger woods 09 by EA sports, need for speed undercover with gsen support and touch support and xtrakt
see i like the games like resco bubbles and teeter
bubble breaker is good to still need to find a good holdem game.
