🚀 StarGrid for Palm OS – Progress Update!
Bases just got smarter: they can now build new ships or unleash a shockwave to repel enemies! 💥⚡
Strategic depth is growing… stay tuned, commanders! 🛰️👾 #palmos #retrogaming #retrocomputing #StarGrid #indiegame #palm

Creating the menu screens for #StarGrid
Reusing the same grid layout as the main game. Maximum reuse of resources! #palmos #retrodev #indiedev #indiegame #stargrid #TurnBasedStrategy

StarGrid's hi-res mode now also working! Running here in a 320x480 resolution (Tungsten T3, T5, TX). Colors look a bit over saturated in the video, but looks fine on device!

Can't forget about all those grayscale devices either. A range of 16 grays is nice, but you have to ensure there's always a big enough contrast between them.

Not all Palm PDAs were created equal. I recently acquired some Treo 90 devices, and the screen tearing significantly diminishes the gaming experience (which likely wasn't their intended use anyway). In contrast, the M505 has no screen tearing issues at all. #palm #PalmOS #pda #retrodev #stargrid

Every new game needs an icon. At least that can be checked off now. #Stargrid #PalmOS

Getting to the fun part! 🚀 Just wrote a new post on building the CPU Player for StarGrid on Palm OS. Check it out! #GameDev #PalmOS #StarGrid: https://quarters.captaintouch.com/blog/posts/2025-03-06-building-the-cpu-player-for-stargrid.html

🚀 StarGrid for Palm OS game-dev update!

We got phasers! 🔫
We got torpedoes! 💥
We got explosions! 💣

And capturing the enemy flag is now possible! 🏴✨

Next up: adding CPU players to make it a true turn-based battle. Stay tuned!

Box-art made for my game-in-progress StarGrid, launching exclusively on PalmOS somewhere in 2025. Rocking a retro vibe!

After my MiniGolf game of last summer, I'm once again turning to Palm OS to create a new game called "StarGrid" 🌌.
It's a turn based, capture the flag kind of strategy game.
