Well it’s about time. My first iPhone game has been released on iTunes. I hope that people give it a whirl and like it. If you want to see more details about this game click Here
Well Like I don’t need any more projects. I’ve started a mini pinball for the kids. I’ve been collecting piball parts for my Target Alpha Machine and realized I have enough for a mini game. I’ve done up a layout in Sketchup to see how it would look.
Here is the pinball with my friends from Dr. Who.
Well our first iPhone game has been submitted to apple for approval. Check out the main page to see what it is all about.
Blisterball was released on the Apple ][ computer in the 80’s and I just loved it. You used a rotary dial to control this blaster thingy to shoot these “Blisterballs” coming at you. I wrote a version for the Wii hope you like it as much as I did.
After a false start ( I had to resolder the board as two motors weren’t working) The new beast is alive!! and wow it is fast and accurate. No more swearing and crying. Take a look at a cut I did on the old CNC vs. a cut made on the new faster happier cnc. The bands on the new cut are from running it too slow. I wasn’t sure on the first cut how fast I could push it. I am happy to say the least.
Well since I’ve updated the motors I needed to update the power supply as well. I put the controller and power supply together in a big case and added serial port connectors for the motor conections. I’m running this thing right on the line of destruction as the max voltage on the controller board is 42V and I’m right there at 43V hehe.. I don’t see smoke… must be good.
In an attempt to Rock my cnc into new heights I’ve added 205oz motors to kick up the speed and accuracy! Here is a pic of the new on the Left and old on the right.
Well I’ve dusted off the Wii Version of The Trojan LCD Simulator and added Wiimote support so you don’t have to plug in your Gamecube controler. You still can if you like. I won’t tell
Here is the Download: trojanwii-V1.1
Well it was only a matter of time before I rebuilt my CNC. I needed to tighten up the x y axis as it gittered and was causing all kinds of headaches. I installed real CNC thread rods and hardened steel linear rods. I don’t have the motors setup yet or the small tweaks yet. That will be later on.
I decided to put my CNC controller into a case as it was getting coated with sawdust. I added 3 serial ports so I could unplug and clean from time to time.
