The problem with the rather small home partition is annoying, so I did it this way:
The games all install (if you use the structure in the ipk files) to /usr/palm/
so I just made an 2gig ext3 image in MyDocs and loop mounted that to /usr/palm. That way you can just install the games directly with dpkg. (well actually I used -x) no need to use external applications and such.

Took a good 45 minutes to create the image though. vfat is slow.

you can get a lot of free webos games to try using the IPKFetcher program on your computer. Read more here: http://forums.precentral.net/gsm-pre...k-fetcher.html

There are tons of demos and free games to download.


meh, you still need a palm pre or pixi to dl :/

Tetris Touch is listed as a working game on the Wiki, but has anyone actually played? It definitely runs and works perfectly, but getting the thing to rotate your blocks is a friggin unresponsive headache. You're supposed to tap to the right or the left of the screen to rotate it clockwise or counterclockwise. You can get lucky by tapping the the screen SUPER lightly, but even that is not 100%. Can anyone else confirm this, because I searched and got nothing in this thread and the Wiki makes no mention of it.

I second that,

you also have to press menu buttons super lightly so they respond.
