ShaWn.cz created a holographic engine that lets you interact with your accelerometer and screen in a 3D-like atmosphere. The project is in very early development stage, but with further enhancements it could turn into a very impressive app. This version is more like a demo and contains a preview hologram environment with cube creation and movement.

How to draw cube:

- Push the position where you want to start and by holding stylus on display move wherever you want
- Okay, now you have a square, push stylus to display and move on x-axis to define back side
- Final stage, repeat step 2 for define front side

How to move cube:

- In this version you can move only with last created cube
- Simply select Move Tool in Features menu and slide or click to destination

Note: Only for WVGA resolution.

Historically, if you have tried to play a game needing left/right keys on an HTC Touch Diamond, you noticed that they are 2mm wide which resuls in many mishits. Dredger97 decided to write a program allowing you to lock these 4 key actions and replace it by classical key events (VK_LEFT, VK_RIGHT, etc). That way, you can play tetris and use “Pick-Up” and “Hang-Up” keys for going left and right.

He also extended it to let you configure each app independently and choose between four (five) modes:

* “HardKeySimul”: replace the 4 keyz by classical key event
* “Launcher”: allow you to quicklaunch 4 app (that you define in the config wnd) when you double tap (not click, just tap) on one of those 4 keyz
* “Scroll”: allow you to scroll the current window by tapping those 4 keyz panel
* “KeySimul”: allow you to send left/right/up/down events by tapping those 4 keyz panel
* “— Disabled —”: Disable specific HTC Touch Diamond Sensor functionalities.

Note: Now DredSensor should be compatible with other devices than HTC Touch Diamond. Please visit developer’s thread for full instructions and tips. You never know what can happen from trying to remap keys. So as a warning, we would like to mention that using such an app on an untested device, may result in the need for a hard reset. The best thing you can do is ask questions to the developer or in the XDA thread if you’re not sure you want to take the risk.

Parcheesi is an American version of the Ancient game of Pachisi, the national game of India, ( I am sure Hockey is the national game of India ) in which you race around a track on the game board, attempting to block your opponents while moving your markers to the goal. The game is also known as Pachisi, Parchisi, Parchesi, and Twenty-Five, and is a descendent of the older game of Chaupar.

Parcheesi, a family classic since the 1860s, is the ultimate race-and-chase board game. The object is take four pawns from start to home, using rolls of the dice to dictate your moves. It sounds easy, but to accomplish your mission you have to first roll a five to even move off of start, and then you must avoid running into blockades and dodge your opponents, who threaten at every turn to send you back to the beginning. If you plot your moves strategically and use the safety zones scattered around the board, you might just make it.

Rack-O is a classic Parker Brothers card game. The object is to score points. Each round, you replace cards in your rack so their numbers read in any numerical progression from a low number at the front to a high one at the back (the racks hold the cards behind each other) – achieving this ends the round. The cards are numbered from 1 to 60; you initially place them in your rack in the order they’re dealt. On your turn, you draw from the deck or the discard pile, swapping the card with one from your rack.
