Palm Game what do you think?

by Donald "Yadot" Harris · in Game Design and Creative Issues · 11/03/2005 (1:17 pm) · 4 replies

This is a little off topic based on the board. But what are your opinions about Palm vs WinCe or just handheld games in general? I am trying to figure out from a time perspective which would be the quicker/cheaper dev cycle and does anyone make any profit off of these 10 dollar games? Just looking for some info...

It all depends on whether its a 2d or 3d game what genre it is what handheld you want to develope it on. if you put on more info then people might be able to help you out some more.

Palm is going WinCE I think...

CE's new version has a nice DirectX sdk. Could port T2d over to it in theory...

Mobile 5 API's..

Well actually Randy since this post I have decided to go with a PSP possibly. But I have yet to do any forum research to see if anyone is entertaining that idea. Also Randy are you out of San Antone?
