Show HN: Space Shooter for Pebble

  That's pretty cool. I don't have a Pebble so didn't realize they had an App Store ... makes me wonder if Flappy Pebble is next ;)

    They're way ahead of you, `Tiny Bird` has been available since Feb: http://www.connectedly.com/flappy-bird-pebble http://www.connectedly.com/flappy-bird-pebble

      I suppose I should have seen that coming. I saw the article about it being on Google Glass now too. What a craze!

  Why is it spelled Pheonix in the logo? Is that just a typo?
  • rompetoto 12y ago
    Ha! good catch, thanks!
    • lionheart 12y ago
      I live in Phoenix so it immediately popped out at me.

  This seems to be a clone(?) of Patrick Davidson's [1] Phoenix for TI calculators [2,3].

    Sure is. Not a direct clone or anything, I just use a similar style of gameplay/store mechanics. The TI calculator was my first adventure in programming...

  Someone should port Invaders. The source code is available. Might want to change the graphics a little to prevent letters from lawyers :) http://www.scottlu.com/Content/Invaders.html http://www.scottlu.com/Content/Invaders.html
