SpaceDancer V1.00 S60v5


The game idea was a simple derivative of 'guitar hero' or 'DDR' whereby you press a button or buttons along with the music.

The two major problems with this idea on this specific platform are:

1) Button layout, the buttons need to be in an easy to reach location , but also that will not require the phone to be shifted around to reach other keys. also when pressing the buttons its important that the main game play area is not obscured by the players hands.

2) most touchscreen devices are still only single touch capable. this severely reduces the number of button presses available. unlike a traditional keypad which allows for combos.

Both of these issues have been overcome as you can see in the video. The game is very early on in design but the underlying technology is the real product that I'm showcasing.

True Multitouch?
Sounds like a new term..... Undecided


@Teknokid
I found that it requires a hard press. May be it is fixed in later versions.
So it means multitouch functionality is available on resistive screens too.......in the so called FAKE way  Grin

If you touch two points, the screen feels pressing exactly between them.



Understand, where the real buttons are located?

it's very easy, just tap on the middle of buttons, and it will press 2keys.

That's a good idea, but the multitouch title is a bit fake Wink

anyway, tnx Smiley

If you touch two points, the screen feels pressing exactly between them.

maybe you know - is it possible for the screen to determine the width of the input. like in this app: it doesn't matter if i click between the two buttons or tap both of them, the input is always cought at the same point. but in my first example the input is spread over the display.
u know what i mean?

sorry for my english ;-)
