BlueBlocks is the first real multiplayer Bluetooth game for PalmOS. It uses a so-called piconet to connect up to four palm PDAs into a bluetooth network. These four palms can then join each other in a multiplayer session of BlueBlocks.

Features

  • Grayscale, color and Hirez color graphics ...
  • Supports PalmOS 4 and 5
  • Bluetooth piconet support

Supported systems

The game has been developed and tested with a PalmOne M515 and a PalmOne Tungsten T. Tests have shown, that the old PalmOS 4 based machines have problems with piconetworks and sometimes drop an active piconet connection. It is therefore recommended to use newer PalmOS 5 machines if available. If PalmOS 4 machines are to be used, they should be used as client devices only. Clients are the devices, that actively connect into the piconet.

Support

You can support the development of BlueBlocks and other future PalmOS games by feeding my PayPay account and thus allowing me to add support for newer hardware to the game.
