I kind of like this game and I am all up for paying CCP a bit more so they can develop EVE even further.

How bout making this lil mini game into an app for iphone and android. I might be the only one that thinks its a fun game but I would spend a couple dollars to be able to play this game on my phone while bored at work.

Not fair, Bad idea, not balanced.
You will train risk free while others (in game) have to use d-scan watch local and more.P

LOL Ok add a random name generator and create a lil local window. Make it so that if a name is generated, you have a random amount of time to complete the hack before you are destroyed.

There we go. Risk, Reward.

Hehehe

Though on a fun note. You could tie it into Eve so that when someone completes a hack on the app, a random can pops open and spews out stuff like the old version of the hacking game.

What about Windows Phone? I do not intend to buy Android, let alone iPhone. Or do you just want a not-ingame-activity influencing, stand-alone game where you search grids like in a memory?

My ridicule, heavy criticism and general pale outlook about your or CCP's ideas is nothing but an encouragement to prove me wrong. Give it a try.

I would guess that is completely up to CCP and what they wish to tackle. If I had a clue how to program I would just make it and offer it to them but... well I dont know how.

Alexie. Oh I am sure they might buy it from you if a fan made the game and showed it to them. I got EVE stuff all over my phone. Minigame just seemed like a cool addition.

Ask them. They seem to be relatively open to Third Parties after all.

Was thinking the App could link in with your API to determine skills. Also thinking that it could tie into your wallet so that you could buy scanning items for the app that were specific.

Like say for example you want to use the bonuses from an Astero. Make it so that you can use ISK to buy the sHIP in name only for the app. You could tie this risk of losing actual in game isk with a reward of some isk in return.

Just a thought
