Heart of the Alien Redux for Symbian S60v3 by Ronen K.
--------------------------------
To receive updates please visit: http://mobile4dev.blogspot.com/
Heart of the Alien is the sequel for Another world which was only released for
SegaCD.
To know more about this engine please visit http://hota.sourceforge.net/ (Maintained by Gil Megidish)
Release 0.1(4) base on version 1.2.2 by Gil Megidish (http://hota.sourceforge.net/)
This version has:
* First release, Redux functionality
* Quick save/load
* Game was tested on n95
!!! IMPORTANT !!!
-----------------
There are 2 versions of the sis file (because Sound in this game is awesome)
1. A version with Music (Heartaline_release_sound_signed.sis)
2. A version Without Music (but with sound - Heartaline_release_no_sound_signed.sis)
The version with music is very CPU intensive you can try it first
but the music might be choppy (It is very choppy on a N95 8GB)
So choose the correct version.

Wow, an interesting port, glad that he supports a few clicks at the same time ... Heartaline_release_sound_signed.sis in this version there is no sound, but unfortunately the music does not start .. the music files are on the path e:> HOTADATA>
ReplyDeleteShow you how to get away from the Panthers?) .. Jump over the cliff?
You run at the panther and then go back there will be a small standalone wall in the middle of the the screen climb that and let the panther eat the cat.
ReplyDeletethanks, got the game .. still no icon ... and sometimes that after a few deaths you press the joystick in the direction and character must escape, but fails.
ReplyDeleteGood port, thanks! One question - how to turn off the sounds ? The game ignores my phones settings, playing games sounds (like steps) with full loudness :(
ReplyDeleteI usually use the volume keys, there is no configuration files so it can't be done permanently.
ReplyDeleteYou can use silent mode on the phone before you start the game.
