Yes - download the source code, and improve it! The notes in the program explain the difficult hurdles that had to be overcome - for instance, there are no line drawing commands or math functions provided by the Trakr's API, which is a bit of a hindrance when you want to use trigonometry to figure out where to draw some lines. There are plenty of arbitrarily-chosen constants that could be tweaked for a better game experience, and a few known bugs to fix too. Let me know how you get on!

tried your program. it is very slow and jumpy. anything I can do to speed it up? keep getting killed by enemy tanks becuase it is so slow. Good effort, nonetheless.

Comments for BattleTrakr http://www.spygear.net/detail.php?appID=329 From the Read Me (located in the source file): BattleTrakr v1.0 by RorschachUK - A vector graphics proof of concept demo. Overview ======== Your Trakr is being hunted - an enemy tank is stalking you across the battlefield! Your only hope is to find it and shoot it before it shoots you. Use the sticks to move and the Go button to fire. Keep your eye on the radar to help you find the enemy. Beware though, the battlefield is strewn with obstacles you can't drive or shoot through. And as always, red barrels explode! Inspiration =========== The Trakr's tank controls reminded me of a wireframe tank arcade game from 1980 and I thought it would be interesting to see if I could recreate a similar vector graphics experience on the Trakr, with a virtual world overlaid onto the camera's view. Installation ============ Copy the BattleTrakr.bin file to the Apps directory, and copy the BattleTrakr_Sounds directory to the SD card.
