Title: Question about WP7 Carcassonne game Post by: neosatan on January 10, 2012, 06:59:02 am Hi!
I want to play Carcassonne on my Windows Phone 7, but didn't found anything. Anybody knows anything about Carcassonne on WP7? Even an open project in xna will help cause I will write the rest, just don't wan't to begine the project on my own.

At present only one company has the proper license to do a mobile app and they are only doing it for iOS (Apple iPhone).

It is written on Java and may be good solution in this case. You can do a port to WP7 from the given source code. Title: Re: Question about WP7 Carcassonne game Post by: Skull One on January 11, 2012, 02:14:09 pm It has two things that keep it under the radar of a Cease and Desist letter.
1) It is free. 2) It has a very limited following. The second you move it to a mobile phone, you lose #2.

I got the source code of JCloisterZone, and maybe in march I will try to make my own implementation of Carcassonne. Still I would't publish it on market cause don't have license. Maybe if I would change the graphics and name, and some mechanics... Don't know yet.
I like to write a Carcassonne game for training in XNA cause I didn't have time for it lately and in few months I will have to write some app based on XNA... |
