Brickulator Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Must have been done before, but I just found out that LOCO works with the new microsoft remote desktop app due to its glorious lack of a third dimension. And it runs wonderfully. So that's pretty awesome. ProfessorBrickkeeper, Car CrazeXVI, le717 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redacted Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 I once played Half-life, on a tablet, with a WIImote via splashtop. It is pretty easy to do and i love streaming my PC to a tablet or other device so i can sit on the couch and play my PC games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lol username Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 I've seen LU on an iPad before, but I'd say this game is a lot more suited for it. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharkly Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 This is awesome! I need to try this. I remember playing Loco for hours. Now we just need Rock Raiders running on it... RU is currently very portable. Teemo currently has it running on is [insert tablet device here]. With the appropriate licenses, I could easily port it to iOS. By the way, RU is on track to be [mostly] finished by the end of the semester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brickulator Posted October 29, 2013 Author Share Posted October 29, 2013 Rock Raiders does seem quite suited to tablets. I guess it's probably possible with PC streaming apps or whatever. The PS1 version could easily be played on an ipad via remote desktop but I'm not sure it'd work as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharkly Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Rock Raiders is actually perfectly suited for tablet controls. The interface itself would have to be revamped, but overall it would feel very natural. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Car CrazeXVI Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 [Redacted] 3 out of less than 90 people is not everyone. Now we just need Rock Raiders running on it... Hold your horses, I mentioned this once and I don't think anyone went with it. You suggested porting/remaking the game to run on the iPad, whereas Ace suggested using the Remote Desktop App thing blah blah Windows 8 blah to run the original PC Game on it... for... some reason...

McJobless Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Or, we could just not acknowledge tablets at all and live happy knowing that we're not ruining computing. Still, a cool find, I guess. Wognif, Cyrem and Car CrazeXVI 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brick5492 Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Nice to see a classic lego game on a tablet! I own a windows 8.1 tablet , and I just tried LOCO on it. It works very well with touch controls. Brickulator 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
