Software

Here are links to some games and other toys that I have released as free software. If you find any bugs or have any questions about them, just e-mail me at mats@sjoberg.fi.

Heebo

A simple but addictive game in the Match-3 genre for the Nokia N9 (MeeGo Harmattan) and newer Nokia Symbian phones (Anna and Belle operating systems). The game has got over 85,000 downloads in the Nokia Ovi Store!

Get Heebo from the Nokia Ovi Store for Nokia N9 or Nokia Symbian phones

Yaics

A very simple identi.ca/StatusNet client in Qt. It also includes a client for Nokia N9/N950, which is usable, but perhaps not quite ready for general adoption.

Download for Nokia N9/N950: yaics_0.1.1_armel.deb (Updated April 26, 2012)

Blog post about Harmattan Nokia N9/N950 client

getpods

Very simple command line podcast client in Python, that I made for my personal use. I put it here in case someone else finds it useful.

To fetch the most recent code, just do:

git clone http://git.saz.im/getpods.git

Daily Comic

A simple web comic viewer. It uses the server maintained by Johan Paul for his DailyComics application. My comic viewer is written in Python and PySide.

Download for Nokia N9/N950: comics_0.1.0-1_all.deb

Source code:

git clone http://git.saz.im/comics.git

Blocks

A Qt-based game inspired by Blocks Mania for iOS. At the moment the basic mechanics are there, I just need to make some levels!

Source code:

git clone http://git.saz.im/blocks.git

ColourSOM

A simple HTML5 canvas + JavaScript application that demonstrates the Self-Organising Map algorithm by using random colours as training vectors.

Run ColourSOM
