Pocket 1945 - Another cool Pocket PC 2003 Dev example

This is a very cool (and looks like fun) example of game programming for the Compact .NET Framework.

Pocket 1945 - A C# .NET CF Shooter

Pocket 1945 is a classic shooter inspired by the classic 1942 game. The game is written in C# targeting the .NET Compact Framework

...

In order to play you need a Pocket PC enabled device with the .NET Compact Framework 1.1 installed. To install simply copy the Pocket1945.exe file and the level XML files to a new folder on your device. No installation is required.

To play the game, you use the direction keys on your device. To exit, click the calendar button (first hardware button). To fire, click the second hardware button. Since I don’t own a real device I’m not sure what the “name” of these buttons are. But, just give it a go!

The current game is far from “finished”, but it is safe to run the code and it is playable. The game consists of 4 levels. To add levels of your own, simply make new level XML files and copy them to the game folder on your device.
