Flick Fishing for the Storm
- If anyone knows anyone with a iPhone, chances are you've seen Flick Fishing or a game like like it. I'm not a big fishing person, but there's something about this game that's addictive. I mean yeah it's a game for the iPhone, but really should every game that can be played with the iPhone be able to be played on the Storm?
I went to the site for Flick Fishing:
Freeverse: Games: Flick Fishing
I asked them if they could develop this for the Storm. This was on Saturday, so i haven't gotten an answer back, so i'll have to see what they say. But i was thinking if enough people were interested, they may be more inclined to do it. So take a look at the link and if it's something you'd like to see on the Storm, please let them know. Also, take a look at their other apps and games. They seems to have a lot of good games and apps, but they're for the iPhone.
It's time for developers to start creating things for the iPhone and the Storm, i mean it's just going to increase their market.02-23-09 08:43 AMLike 0 - Why? I thought you download an application according to how useful and/or entertaining it is to you. I did not think that the two phones had to carry the same types of useless programs. If I see another Light Saber or Fart application for the Storm, I am going to throw my laptop against the wall.02-23-09 09:33 AMLike 0

- One thing to consider that I've seen on this site is that the the Storm only has it's original 128MB of memory to host apps to begin with, and that's after the OS memory requirements, themes, etc. (someone correct me if I'm mistaken). Free space becomes a valuable commodity on the Storm very quickly.
The iPhone was built to use it's entire memory bank to run whatever - media, sms, email, and applications, which is why some of the iPhone apps are larger than the entire memory space available for apps on the Storm. That said, many of the iPhone apps will never come out for the Storm, unless RIM comes out with an OS that would somehow allow the 8GB or 16GB expansion cards to be used to host apps as well. In the end these two phones are two very different devices with different capabilities. Maybe the iPhone would be a better choice for you.02-23-09 10:37 AMLike 0 - I'd enjoy catching a fish from home, or maybe I'll stand by the river for the full effect. We need more apps/games that use the accelerometer!02-25-09 12:38 AMLike 0
- Not to burst your dreams, but you're not going to get too many companies who will program for the storm. The iPhone uses a form of c++ and the storm uses a form of j2me. These are completely different programming languages.02-25-09 01:07 AMLike 0

- I also would like to see Flick Fishing for the Storm. I asked the creators of this game if they would make it for the Storm and I haven't received an answer either. I did purchase the ESPN Bassmasters fishing game for the Storm but it doesn't come close to Flick Fishing.02-25-09 10:11 AMLike 0

But come on, what kind of business doesn't respond to emails? Especially one that's looking to bring them more business and money? I mean come on they sale the game for the iPhone for 99 cent... and we all know there's no way in... that's its going to be sold for the Storm at that price. I would see it at 2.99. But to have Flick Fishing on the storm, it would be so worth it.02-25-09 01:54 PMLike 0
- why would you say that? What about the storm hardware compared to the iphone tells you that it would be watered down? These are the kind of comments that make developers think twice.02-28-09 08:32 PMLike 0
- Well I do hope im wrong bro i love my storm. I was just saying that because i hear a lot that the iphone has more graphics power for running games. They do have some cool games tho and they run smooth. Im just waiting for the app store to see if they'll add games like that. Maybe i was just drunk when i posted that lol sorry03-02-09 09:34 PMLike 0
- I would love to see this game too. I agree that BB did want to go head to head with the IPhone and they should have expected the end user to want the same type of apps. What up with the limit on size of programs. 128 is just not enough when you have all that availible memory. Come on RIM!03-03-09 01:38 PMLike 0
