The major places to look for changes is the InputHelper class (I had to add my own Keys enum on Zune and do some #if for the input stuff) and the SoundManager class (where I removed all of the XACT stuff and replaced it with the new sound API methods). The Game1 class has some new stuff to handle flipping the screen from portrait to landscape using a render target as well as now defining the font name as a constant so we can use a 20pt version on Windows and a 10pt version on Zune.

I have uploaded a new version of Thrust for the 3.0 CTP which is compatible with the Zune. I have also uploaded a small game I am working on which is essentially a Space Invaders clone.

Nick Gravelyn is also working on something similar, but uses the screen differently.

Anyone else got some code, games, samples, etc to try out?

We have another one. I just port a sample game from my book to Zune :)

Check inhttp://www.sharpgames.net/Notícia/tabid/56/selectmoduleid/432/ArticleID/1517/reftab/36/Default.aspx. Sorry folks, it´s a brazilian XNA Portal, but find the 'download' link ok ? :) The code and source comments are in english, of course.

I run it in a "old" Zune, without toutchpad..someone can please test it in a "new" Zune model and give some feedback?

Enjoy,

José.

It runs fine on the 'new zune' (80gb). However the touch controls are really sensitive and using the buttons instead is impossible. Also the ship accelerates side to side REALLY quickly...

Thanks Sean,

Please, fell free to change this in the Player class :)

I have changed how the input works in my project so menu stuff requires clicking the pad instead of just touching it. Will be releasing an update tonight.

It is a continuation of the wonderful per-pixel collision tutorial.
