Heh, I figure this would be more of a show off to your friends with iPhones type of background.

I've mostly implemented climbing and diving but find it to be a little disorienting. I'll probably make it more subtle than the game and have the option to turn it off.

I jest, I jest :p.
Seriously, this is like the coolest thing ever!
Also, I'm not asking for any favors, but it just occurred to me how kickass a World of Ruin version would be. That's just me thinking aloud though; the fact that you made the blackjack a wallpaper is great enough!

I was thinking this too. You could even do something like on December 21st, change it to the WoR. Or Day/night settings for WoB/WoR. :)

Can you set up the wallpaper to show a wide screen view when the phone is flipped? Not sure if that's possible.

Hmm. I'm not sure actually. I think some phones support rotated backgrounds, but the two phones I have access to (Nexus One and Evo) don't do that. Is your phone capable of that?

Actually on thinking about it, I might be able to manually invoke a rotated view by reading the accelerometer values. I'll look into that and see if I can get it to work.

The wide screen works for my phone when I use the keyboard, but it constantly steers to the left when I hold it, so when I don't feel like steering, I put it on auto pilot.

Ahh, OK I think I got it. I might need you to test some changes later then. But it sounds like the rendering flips correctly, I just need the Accelerometer to adjust as well. Thanks!

No problem. Keep up the good work!

Alright, tilt should work now with rotated screen. If your phone or device doesn't autorotate the home screen then obviously this wasn't an issue. However, I downloaded a program called ADW Launcher that let's me have an auto-rotated background. I used this for testing and steering seems to be working great, plus it looks cooler widescreen I think.

Let me know if you have any problems.

Thanks man, works beautifully!

This looks damn epic. I will have to get this when I eventually get a smartphone. Nice work LunarRed!

Thanks! I'm currently implementing a minimap which is nice cuz you can steer to the places where you want to go. Should be included in an update tomorrow.

I've noticed that eventually I run out of map after a few hours of leaving the phone on, and the Blackjack is just flying over a blank space endlessly. The sky's still there, the Blackjack is still there, and still moving normally, but there's simply blank space underneath. The only way to get things back to normal is turning the phone off, which I don't usually do.

Yeah I noticed that too, but the ground will come back..eventually. Or I just change the wallpaper and change it back. I'm looking into it though. I think it's some optimization that's come back to haunt me..

Just issued an update to the market that fixes that issue.

Also, there is a minimap :tongue:

You're on fire dude, keep up the good work!

Oh yes, this is awesome. And I splurged on the $0.99 version for the Falcon and WoR. Money well spent. I can now do the one thing I was never able to: Fly the Blackjack around the WoR. :)

One minor comment is none of the screen shots in Android Market have the mini-map on them. You might include a shot or two with the mini-map so people know it's there.
