article.gifIII. Palm Freeware - 4. NekoCat

NekoCat

  • Version : 4.5 (July 2009)
  • Freeware for :
  • Language :
  • Screen :
  • Downloadable File : nekocat.zip (46 Kb)

NekoCat is a little cat that sits on your Palm and chases the food (bird, mouse or fish) that you tick on the screen until he catches it. This so cute little cat then goes through a series of absolutely adorable activities, such as cleaning himself and taking a nap.

NekoCat Source Code

I have ported NekoCat in different languages and development tools, that was a very good exercise for me in all these tools. NekoCat is even a sample software for all these tools. So, the NekoCat source code is open and free.

Updates Description

4.5 (07/28/09)
- added 320x480 screen mode for Palm devices equiped with such a wide screen
- cat's food can be moved using Palm's 5 Way Nav

4.4 (09/17/07)
- recompiled this program with the latest iziBasic version 6.1 to avoid device freezes or soft resets on some devices

4.3 (11/04/05)
- Bug fix: the small images checkbox now refreshes when setting to default values in the options

4.2 (02/23/05)
- Recompiling this program with the latest iziBasic version 5.0 led to a 12 KB (-9%) decrease of the program's foot print

4.1 (01/19/05)
- source code upgrade for the food selection checkboxes: for a better and smoother displaying, they are now refreshed instead of being rebuilt when changing food

4.0 (01/04/05)
- added an option to switch to small images for devices with high resolution screen

3.0 (12/02/04)
- switched reference source code from HSPascal to iziBasic, this was a complete rewrite of this software!
- removed a white square appearing on the cat when moving the food in the case food was over the cat
- NekoCat now remembers last status when exiting

2.3 (09/18/02)
- added Donation information
- upgraded this help file

2.2 (07/05/02)
- NekoCat could remain frozen. Now, it will freeze only if you double tick on the menu button (asked by people who like to see NekoCat in position!). Double ticking on the screen, choosing a menu option or selecting one of the foods will unfreeze it.

2.1 (05/25/02)
- minimum Palm OS version check
- code update for Palm OS < v3.5 compliancy
- code update for Palm OS v5 compliancy

I sure have missed Neko since my OS/2 days ... thank you for making it available again. Cheers from Hong Kong.

(P.S. I would have written this in French, but after 22 years without using it, I've basically forgotten it.)

This program is fun to play with and I use it ocassionally to keep from falling asleep during something particularly boring.
But WHERE IS THE SOURCE CODE!? :-O I want to find it so that I can make my own game that is similar to this...if any one can answer that please post, I'll be here for another 20 minutes, just waiting...waiting...
