Here is a little gimmick to KEEP on your emulator/phone, it is the well-known Fortune “game” for Android.

Release notes:

This open-source project started by me (pjv) is actually quite complete and working already. Grab cookie files of the net and let Android’s Fortune show them to you for distraction. Several options exist to receive notifications of new cookies at several time moments. Also some settings to make the cookies easily readable. Finally an automated version checker (using tomgibara’s veecheck) is included so you’ll be able to catch up with the latest features. The current state is beta and might need some usability improvement here and there but the general experience should be quite smooth. To be able to do anything useful you can get the sample cookie file “work” that is included, put it on the phone, and set the preferences accordingly.

xMemphisx got bored the other day and thought to do something with Android.Here comes the entire US Constitution!

It’s basically a splash screen, followed by a listview (Articles, Signatories, Amendments), which is followed up by information of each of the afore mentioned. It’s also a pretty decent example code for someone trying to learn to use Android.

Amazed is an open-sourced accelerometer game written for the apps-for-android project.

The aim is to navigate a white marble through a maze to the exit, signified by the light blue tiles. Make sure you avoid the black “void” or you will die.

Brakken has some news about his Wii Coding Competition…

Quote:

It’s getting closer to November 15th, the official deadline for turning in your original Nintendo Wii homebrew for TehSkeen’s Nintendo Wii Coding Competition. We’ve got a lot of people who’ve voted they will be entering, but as always, we could use more!

This is where you, the average user can help out! As some of you may or may not know, a dirty rat narked out our contest to Paypal and according to them any contest where a random pool of winners are selected falls under their Acceptable Use Policy regarding Gambling. So, we can’t accept donations via Paypal, but we’ve managed to get another way to accept credit cards.

It may be a minor inconvenience to use our new payment method versus Paypal, but to get more fine homebrew coded for the Wii isn’t it worth the little extra bit of trouble (if filling out a credit card form other then using Paypal is trouble to you)? So, if you’re in the donating mood head over to the official contest site and throw down some cash so we can get these coders motivated!
