I used to play a helicopter game in my Clié some time ago, but I don't remember the name. It is quite similar to AnotherBottle for Palm OS, or this game:

I would like to know if there is a version of this simple yet entertaining game for the Axim.

I love that game. Unfortunately, I have no idea where it can be found for the ppc.

There's all kinds of clones of that game for virtually every single platform out there, but I forgot where they are for the PPC...

If you're able to play FLASH file (swf) on your PPC .. you can play this game by saving the swf file ;)

I can play flash file using "Bryht flash player" ... works the same ... although, with the constant poking and holding of the stylus ... it's not too good for the screen though ( if one is addicted with this style of games ) ;)

This game is a version of SFCave

A palm OS port can be found here - http://www.sunflat.net/en/games/palmcave.html

Mike thanks for the site. BTW does anyone know how to save SWF files? when you right click it just has VCR like controls

Arcticmaniac - No idea how to do this in IE so...if you are not using Firefox now might be a good time

Open up the page you want to save the .swf on in firefox then go to tools->page info
Click on the media tab of the box that comes up.
Select the .swf file and click on Save as

There you go - couldn't be simpler
I am using Firefox 1.0.7 right now - the current version is 1.5. Things may have moved about a bit - I don't recall and can't check until I use myt other machine.

Cheers,
Mike

You're supposed to keep the left mouse button down to "climb" !!! let it go to "descend"... kinda like the gas pedal in the car ...

the instructions are clearly stated BEFORE you start !!! :p
