touchscreen based Exult feasibility?

Post by notAdragon »

As some of you may know already, an official SDK for the iPhone is coming out soon. Thus I'm wondering about the feasibility of playing Exult using touchscreen-based input system.

* Drag'n'drop and walking can both be done via "double-tap and hold".
* Pausing and opening various menus can be done via double-tapping on the Avatar (assuming Gump-pause mode) then select stuff on the avatar Gump or typing.

What other technical restrictions are there?

Check what has been done for the PPC release which is using the touchscreen functionalities.

Hmm, I don't have a PPC. What is the best way for me to check what has been done for it (without buying one)?

Maybe try the GP2X F-200 Exult release with touchscreen support.
