+rdemming Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I did not see it mentioned here before but if it is old new I'm sorry. Jeff Minter (of Tempest 2000 fame) has released a revamped version of his oldy Gridrunner for Android and iOS. The Android version is Donationware and the iOS version is $0.99. Maybe this is the time to upgrade my Symbian phone to Android Robert http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=t4WOnuqeetI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggn Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Yes yes yes, old news - he's now writing txk (essentially tempest 2000) for the playstation vita, so hold that thought http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i43gYNosWoY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmel_andrews Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Both look good, hows about hacking ST Llamatron (best robotron rip off on the ST) to the Jag....At least the jag will have some classic arcade like game on the system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must be the recordholder for creating games for the bigest number of different systems/platforms. He programmed for VIC-20, C64, ZX-spectrum, Atari 8-bit, Atari ST, Konix, Jaguar, Nuon, X-box, PocketPC, iOS, Windows and many more. And now Sony Vita Robert 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterG Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I tried to run it on my Viewsonic Viewpad 10e with ICS but the graphics were completly corrupted and it would not let me play the game. Guess the hardware is not the best for gaming anyway:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZylonBane Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Jesus, has the man created an original sound effect in the last 15 years? How he's avoided being cease-and-desisted for his blatant sampling is a constant mystery to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karyyk Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 TxK is going to push me into doing something I really don't want to do...buying a Vita. FYI, Gridrunner for Android is playable on Ouya as well (movement with the D-Pad). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TXG/MNX Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 you can always look if TxK is going to push me into doing something I really don't want to do...buying a Vita. FYI, Gridrunner for Android is playable on Ouya as well (movement with the D-Pad). You can always check if the vita will blend and post it here... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mckafka99 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Gridrunner is one of my favorite games on the ipad/iphone, especially using any of the icade products for controls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
