Volleyball 3.1 (Mobile)

Overview:

New: Power-Ups ("Super-kick" and "Super-cloning") and ability to change skins.First volleyball game for the Palm OS ever released! Gameplay includes realistic action, incredible graphics, and computer players with an intelligent volleyball algorithm!Choose one of three skill levels: Beginner, Intermediate, and Expert. While you can probably beat Beginner, you will meet very strong resistance at the Expert level.You can play against a computer or you can watch two computers playing against each other with your choice of either the contemporary or classic volleyball rules!The free version of the game allows up to five games.This game works beatifully on both color and non-color devices! Palette settings can be adjusted via Menu/Game/Palette.VERSION 3.1 NEW FEATURESPower UpsCatch the flying bonus sign and you'll get one of two power-ups to help you win the game! To catch a power-up, simply hit the bonus with the ball. A super-kick bonus sign looks like a small bolt of lightening and a super-cloning bonus sign looks like two circles. In the IR game, only the super-kick is available, but it is a standard feature (not a bonus). We also instructed the computer player not to use any of the power-ups; he is good enough without them. Power-ups last approximately one minute.Super-kickWhen enabled, press "Date Book" hard button (configurable in Preferences, Kick item) and the player will execute a feet-over-head jumping kick,, trying to kick the ball really hard. If you manage to kick the ball with the player's legs, the ball will fly much faster compared to a normal kick (presumably such a ball will be hard to handle for your opponent). If you miss and kick the ball with the player's head or body (which is basically the same thing), it will result in a normal, non-enhanced kick. Super-cloningWhen enabled, press "Left" and "Right" simultaneously -- you'll have two players instead of one for some time. Two clones play together and both reacting to your input. When both clones arrive at the same place, they merge until cloned again. Cloning does not change the number of kicks allowed in your territory.SkinsSkins are separate packs that change the look, and, sometimes, the feel of the game. A skin is a PRC file that can be easily installed on your Palm device, and once installed, Volleyball will automatically recognize the new skin. You can select or delete skins from the menu "Skin". "Set" selects a skin, "Delete" erases a skin from the memory, then click "Done" for changes to take effect. When you delete Volleyball, you will also automatically delete all skins (so install your favorite skin again when your reinstall Volleyball). For IR games, skins do not need to match, except for their physical parameters (size and weight of players, speeds, etc.).This version has two skins, "Palm Beach" skin and "Astronauts On The Moon" skin. To play "Astronauts On The Moon" skin install VolleyballMoonSkin.prc and select it as described above.
