Bonehead

DiceBox seems to be doing pretty well, at least according to the stats coming in from AppHub.

So, as well as the DiceBox 1.1 update, work is underway for an RPG version that is already looking pretty awesome. Unfortunately, its still to early to release any details but a video preview should be available soon. To provide a home on the web for this exciting new endeavour, may I present to you...


The site should be slowly evolving over the following weeks and months, so be sure to keep an eye out.

And now for something completely different: DiceBox

This is bit of a shameless plug really...

Recently a couple of friends and myself have been playing around with the Windows Phone 7 developer tools.

The first fruits of this is DiceBox, a simple dice app, now available on the windows marketplace. If you don't have the Zune software installed you can see the blurb here

Currently there are 6 kinds of dice texture, realistic physics and sound, a total score display and a "shake to roll" feature.

We are planning a series of updates which will introduce a number of additional features, such as backgrounds, shadows and a dice tray for playing poker dice/yahtzee etc

If you have a Windows Phone 7, why not give it a try :)
