Status of Eon Games
- Posted 2005-06-29 13:00 PST by David Hedbor
Currently no further development or
porting is ongoing. Support for current products is limited to "as-is"
(i.e don't expect bug fixes or support for newer distros). I am
sometimes slow to respond to support requests. If you feel like you're
not getting fast enough response, send email to my personal address
at david@hedbor.org. I have no intent to not provide products
paid for (there's still flaws with the email sales reports coming to
me at times) but sometimes miss emails sent to eongames addresses.
Fixed: Expired Key URLs
- Posted 2005-06-29 13:00 PST by David Hedbor
It seems like the fix to expired URLs
didn't actually work correctly. It always returned the "invalid
url" error instead of the expire key page. This has now been fixed.
Automatic download URLs
- Posted 2005-04-04 8:30 PST by David Hedbor
The download URL system was just
improved to automatically send you an updated URL if you attempt a
download with an valid but expired key. This removes the human step
that was previously needed for this to be done.
Site crash
- Posted 2005-01-14 10:30 PST by David Hedbor
Due to various circumstances, the
eongames.com site has been reverted to a state of July 2003.
This means that certain downloads and might not be available and
old information might be present. Please be patient as I try to
resolve the issues with this.
Snails Port Announced
- Posted 2003-03-07 01:20 PST by David Hedbor
I am very pleased to announce the upcoming port of Snails, a game in
the Scorched Earth genre (to be exact, it's similar to the well-known
game series featuring another kind of slimy animals with heavy
weaponry). This is an excellent title with great gameplay and
graphics. In addition to mission mode and deathmatch against the
computer, the game also features single-device and networked 2 player
modes.

Flip It! is a doodling animation tool allowing users to easily draw
and create colorful sketched animations. It is also handy as a virtual
pad of paper allowing users an easy way to save, keep track, and
organize handwritten notes. At only $4.99, this application is a must!

Bust'em 1.2 Update Released
- Posted 2003-03-06 01:36 PST by David Hedbor
This is a bugfix release - the main improvement is that the device no
longer will hang on the highscore entry page in the Japanese
version. The English version also have some international characters
in the highscore entry screen. The audio playback should also be
improved in this release. There are no new features or changes to game play.

Motocross Stunt Racer Released!
- Posted 2002-12-17 01:00 PST by David Hedbor
After fixing a final few bugs in the demo that was released about a
week ago, the full version of Motocross Stunt
Racer is finally available. You can purchase it from our webstore effective immediately.
Motocross Stunt Racer Demo
- Posted 2002-12-09 01:44 PST by David Hedbor
After a few months of no
releases, it's time to announce the release of the Motocross Stunt Racer demo. This is the
latest release from Digital Concepts. As one can
guess from the title, this is a motocross game. Enjoy!
Update 2002-12-12: A new demo is released. It has the same
file name name and version. It fixes the sound problem on iPAQ's as well as
improves the mixer (volume louder, less/no distortion/crackling). This is
very likely to be the final build.
The Future
- Posted 2002-12-09 01:42 PST by David Hedbor
Other than MSR, announced above, there are couple of new titles
pending that I'd like to announce. The first is Hyperspace Delivery
Boy by Monkeystone Games. This game will be release first for Linux
desktop and then for the Zaurus PDA's.
The second game is Dragon Bane 2 by Mythological Software, a
fantasy role playing game with gameplay similar to the Bard's Tale
series. This is the sequel to the popular PalmOS-only adventure game
Dragon Bane.
There is also a third title for the Zaurus that will be announced
shortly!
RocketElite 1.02
- Posted 2002-09-28 23:22 PST by David Hedbor
RocketElite
1.02 fixes time limited levels. Before the time limit was
counted down in less than a second (first level where this
problem can be seen is is Earth Bonus 1). Also fixed training
mode (which now runs at half the speed of before).
Interstellar Flames 1.0, Strategic Assault 1.8.6
- Posted 2002-09-24 23:48 PST by David Hedbor
After a long wait, Interstellar Flames is
finally available. This awesome action game features a groundbreaking
3D engine with graphics never before seen on a handheld. Download the demo or purchase the full version today!
Second announcement is version 1.8.6 of Strategic Assault. This version fixes sound
effects (which were accidently broken in version 1.8.4) as well as a
left-over icon problem in OPIE. Download
RocketElite released!
- Posted 2002-09-02 21:30 PST by David Hedbor
I would like to announce the release of RocketElite for
the Sharp Zaurus platform. This is a very cool space shoot'em'up with
game play inspired from games like Moonlander, Gravity Force and Turbo
Raketti. It's more advanced and features a long single player campaign
as well as 1vs1 multiplayer deathmatch using irDA or UDP/IP.
Find out more about the game, check out the
screenshots and download the
demo You can also check out the PocketPC site at
http://www.rocketelite.com/.
Priced at $18.99, RocketElite can be purchased from our webstore. Enjoy!
More game updates!
- Posted 2002-09-02 21:30 PST by David Hedbor
I have several game updates to announce. The most significant one is
Bust'em 1.1. This version greatly
improves performance in certain instances (when you have many guided
balls). It also adds configurable gamma correction and the option to
grab the hardware keys through Eon Config. Finally it fixes audio
issues on the Japanese SL-A300. I also released the Japanese localized
version of Bust'em.
Other updates are Strategic Assault 1.8.5
which fixes the key upgrabbing bug and grabs the keys by default. PurpleBlaster 2.3 also fixes the issues with key
grabbing and also fixes a display bug Sharp Zaurus SL-A300.
Eligo 1.0.2
- Posted 2002-08-28 00:57 PST by David Hedbor
Just released Eligo 1.0.2. This version
adds no features and fixes no bugs. What it does change is data path,
file names and packaging. It uses our new "zip-file with shared
libraries in separate ipk's" packaging.
Also uploaded updated versions of the PurpleBlaster and Strategic
Assault packages. Note that these doesn't change anything but
packaging (using the zip file).
PurpleBlaster 2.2 and Strategic Assault 1.8.4
- Posted 2002-08-04 23:45 PST by David Hedbor
These new releases mainly adds support our new tool EonConfig
(included with the downloads). This tool allows configuration of
options unique to our ports. Currently this includes gamma correction
level and hardware key grabbing. Another change is that any LGPL
libraries used will be installed automatically as a separate package
(and will thus be shared between applications). This both saves space
if many games are installed and also solved the problem with
LGPL. There is no longer a need for static binaries.
If you have purchased the Forest Fire expansion pack, you need to
update it to version 1.0.4 when you install the new Strategic Assault
due to a change of data directories (which will be made consistent
throughout all out products).
To download the updated versions either use the link you received
in the purchase email (PurpleBlaster and Forest Fire) or on the
download page (Strategic Assault). If you purchased any of these on
Handango, you can download the updated versions from there.
PurpleBlaster released
- Posted 2002-07-21 14:06 PST by David Hedbor
PurpleBlaster by PurplePecker is now out! You
can read more about the game, view some screenshots, download the demo or purchase the
full version for just $5.99 in our store.
Please note that the demo is updated over the version previously
released.
Candy Cruncher out, RocketElite demo
- Posted 2002-07-19 08:00 PST by David Hedbor
The Sharp Zaurus port of Candy Cruncher, Pyrogon's first game is finally
released. This game was ported from the desktop but is as if made for
the Zaurus - handheld stylus gameplay is awesome. You can get it
from Pyrogon.
Also just released is an early demo for RocketElite, the best-selling first game from Digital Concepts. This game,
which is similar to games like Turbo Raketti and Gravity Force,
features 40 levels and 2-player UDP/IP networking (infrared networking
might be added before release of the full game). Try the demo today.
