Changes to the EPOC32 Game Database

[snigfarp]

Hello everyone,



The EPOC32 Game Database has had a major upgrade this morning. If you've visited before, you'll find your next visit a very different experience. Here's why:



1. All games are now available at any time. The daily selection of twelve games is therefore no longer necessary, and it has been replaced by a single "Game of the Day".



2. You can now browse games by first letter, or by category. You can also look at a full list of games, as before, but now the list has links to all the games.



3. There's a search facility. You can find games by name, by author/publisher and by description, simply by typing keywords into the relevant box and pressing the Search button.



Do come and have a look around. Let me know if there's anything that doesn't work. I've tried to check everything, but odd occasional oversight is bound to slip through!

Thanks!

Damian, I just went to and wandered through the site, and especially the game-lisiting. I was astonished by the sheer number of what's available (just the Invaders versions alone!). Everything seemed to be in order, and since I don't own a 5mx, I very much appreciated that the site clearly shows what game will work with which machine, and with accompanying screenshots.

It's a remarkable collection.

I'm glad you like it! I'd be especially interested if anyone can tell me of games it currently lacks. The odd game pops up every now and then but I think it's six months since I found anything to add.

Very good work, Damian!

There are really some juwels hidden in your DB!

Have seen the info today on PsionWelt.net (http://www.psionwelt.de)

Thanks Mobilix! I noticed that Thomas has put the announcement on http://www.psionwelt.de/ and the web site's hits rocketed. I'm now gradually reworking some of the games' descriptions but that will be a long process.
