New Set Of Featured Python Applications!

Pankaj Nathani's kindly informed me about new set of featured pys60 applications on croozeus.com.

The prominent aim of the Featured PyS60 Applications section is to help the developers of PyS60 build standalone applications on PyS60. However the most interesting is that source code of the featured applications which is made available so that other developers can learn from it or modify it according to their needs!!

Here is the complet list of the next 5 featuerd apps and you can find the first 5 featured PyS60 Applications here.

Featured PyS60 App #6:
PyCalc by Bogdan Galiceanu

PyCalc is a PyS60 Calculator with a similar approach, for S60 devices. PyCalc is a calculator with two modes : Basic and Scientific.

The basic mode has most frequently used options like - add, substract, multiply, divide, square, square root, etc. The Scientific mode has advanced options in addition to basic functions, includind - trigonometric functions like sine, consine, tan and logarithmic and exponential functions as well.

Featured PyS60 App #7:
Unity Game by Jouni Miettunen

Unity was originally invented in Japan 1985 as “Chain Shot!” by Kuniaki Moribe. After that it has spread all over the world with names such as SameGame, TumeGame, KomeGame, MameGame, DebaGame, TileFall, Cabeem, MaciGame, GD-BMD etc.

The idea is to clear the whole playing area by removing tiles in groups. The more tiles you remove at the same time, the more points you get !

Currently, there have been updates to this game. Sensor support and difficulty levels have been added. Find more info on the updates on the Python Dibo.
