    The Silicon Toy - Powder Toy's Electronic Engine Emulator for Windows Mobile devices!

    WM5 (and newer) DOWNLOAD: http://www.iefhost.com/dl/silicontoy/SiliconToyInstaller.CAB

    Screenshot!

    The Silicon Toy is a game for Windows Mobile 5 (and newer) that I have began just a few days ago. So far, with the core almost functioning completely, you are able to create electronics the same way if you were to create them in The Powder Toy.

    Written in C# with .NET 2.0, and having a fairly complex engine (being almost similar to Powder Toy), it actually runs fairly smoothly.

    It uses the hardware D-Pad on your phone to move the selection box, and hitting the Enter (or middle) button to create the selected block/particle type. You can use the touchscreen (if you have one) on your phone to move the selection box as well.

    The metals use Temperature (similar to Powder Toy) for the use of the semi-conductors.
    Open/Saving (Not implemented yet, kind of a maybe, actually. But we'll see.) will allow you to save progress and load it later.

    Element/Block/Particle Types include:
    Spark
    Metal
    Wire (Just like in ief015's Powder Toy Mod)
    P-Type Silicon
    N-Type Silicon
    P-Type Semi-Conductor
    N-Type Semi-Conductor
    Battery (NEW - Pulses spark/electricity constantly)

    EDIT:
    Also, I recommend you don't google "Silicon Toy". Actually, go ahead. Do it. It'll be funny.

    3 And gates

    3 and gates. Screenshot shows 52ms, which is about 20fps. Amazing for my phone at least. (fairly old phone, original HTC Touch)

    I don't know if anyone is playing this or using it, but I'm still updating it. At least for myself and maybe a few random users who google their way into this thread.

    Update! The above link was removed and for some reason there's no edit button on the OP.

    - Updated the engine, runs smoother.
    - Messed around with the selected block info. Shouldn't be too crazy now.
    - Fixed up tutorial typos and other errors/misses.

    Someone should make some sort of Iphone app. That would be amazing if we conquer the world of Apple :D

    When it's out of beta, I'll probably release the source.

    Can you compile it for MOTOMAGX phones?. They have linux, and powerful ARM 533 processors.

    At least tell me how to compile
