pBill: the xBill port for PalmOS

pBill

The goal of the game is to prevent the 'Bills' from spreading Windows to other computing devices.

About this game

I found pBill, along with it's source code in a lost corner of the internet. It's a straight port of xBill, but unfortunately it does not run on any color devices which excludes most Palm devices released after the turn of the century. I spent a few evenings getting it up to date and working on most devices.

Update

I added the following changes in update v1.1:

  • Make it run on all devices running OS 3.5 or higher

  • Add color support with hi-res graphics

More detailed info can be found in the blog linked below.


Compatibility

Any Palm OS device running OS 3.5 or higher is supported in both color and grayscale modes

Hi-res support is available for Palm OS 5.

If you have a device running a lower OS, you can still install v1.0 instead.
