Start the app/ run the source code from a phone or an emulator, select a Bluetooth connection and start controlling the other device sending AT Commands and reading the response.

The command set consists of a series of short text trings which combine together to produce complete commands for operations such as dialing, hanging up, and changing the parameters of the connection.

Jomtris v1.20 (Symbian OS Game)

Jomtris is a “tetris” style of casual game. You handle and remove dropping 4-tile pieces as long as possible and that’s it. One game session should take max 5-10 minutes.

The playing field is vertical 10×20 square field, there are different 4-tile pieces dropping down from top and you have to fit them nicely at the bottom. All full rows are removed, to give you some more space to arrange tiles.

You can play either with joystick or keyboard or both at the same time.

There is top-20 high score, pictures on left are from previous v.1.10 release.

This Development Release is made to request feedback. How should this game work, how to count and compare highscore, what kind of setting are needed, what there should be on the screen to make it look nice.

X-COM – UFO Defense (GP2x Game Port)

UFO: Enemy Unknown (later released under the title X-COM: UFO Defense in the United States and X-COM: Enemy Unknown for the European market) is a video game created by Julian Gollop and published by MicroProse Software in 1993. It is the first game in the X-COM series.

The story of X-COM begins in 1998. The initial plot centers around increased reports of UFO sightings. Tales of abduction and terrorism by the unknown aliens become widespread. The nations of the world come to perceive this as a threat and attempt to form their own forces to deal with this, such as Japan’s Kiryu-Kai; these forces fail miserably, the Kiryu-Kai not intercepting a single UFO in its five months of operation. On December 11, 1998, representatives from some of the most powerful nations in the world meet in Geneva, Switzerland, to discuss the issue. From this meeting was born the Extraterrestrial Combat Unit – X-COM, which the player takes control of during the course of the game.

Note: The Original X-COM: UFO Defense Version 1.4 required!
