This is just a short blog post, letting you know that I don't have time to work on zerox86 for a while now. Today my summer vacation ends, and I also have some work to do for my commercial pax86 emulator project. Thus, I gave my GCW-Zero again to my nephew for some further testing of zerox86.
I will continue working on zerox86 after I get my device back from my nephew, probably in a couple of months. So, I hope you can manage with the current version of zerox86 until then! I know there is at least one game that I somehow broke in the latest version, Dangerous Dave Goes Nutz. Sorry about that, I will take a look at that game when I get back to working on zerox86. Thanks again for your interest in zerox86 and for your keeping the compatibility wiki up to date!

Except for the really terrible Nintendo 64 port, StarCraft has always been bound to desktop and laptop PCs. Blizzard could take the code for StarCraft, port it to an ARM platform, put a version on the Google Play an iTunes store, and sit there while the cash rolls in. This would mean a ton of developer time, though, and potentially years tracking down hard to find bugs.
Or one random dude on the Internet could port StarCraft to an ARM platform. Yes, this means all the zerg rushes and dark templar ambushes you could possibly want are available for tablets and Raspberry Pis.
This godlike demonstration of compiler wizardry is a months-long project of [notaz] over on the OpenPandora team. Without the source for StarCraft, [notaz] was forced to disassemble the Win32 version of the game, convert the disassembly to C with some custom tools, and recompile it for ARM while linking in all the necessary Win32 API calls from the ARM port of Wine. Saying this was not easy is an understatement.
If you have an OpenPandora and want to relive your heady days of youth, you can grab everything you need here. For anyone without an OpenPandora that wants to play StarCraft on a Raspi, you might want to get working on your own recompiled port. Video below.

Hi,
I made a little game named "Hase" (German for hare). It is a worms clone in space with gravitation. And hares. You can read more about it in the Pandora board or at Dingoonity.
Furthermore here a video for you:
I compiled it for the Caanoo, but as I don't own such a device, I would need a tester for it. Here is the download:

I hope it works! It is not finished, but gives a good impression of the game idea.
Greetings,
Ziz
