I wouldn't really go for this sort of game but thought I'd buy it to support the developers in the hope that we'll get more games and apps on the N900.

There are many factors that influence any company's decision to support a platform or not. Cost of porting due to fragmentation is a significant factor in that, and the actual volume of paying customers is another. Often the number of devices is quoted as the market size, which is of course not the way to do it.

You can say Maemo Store doesn't suffer from fragmentation, and porting was quite straightforward as well

just paid for Zen Bound, but the istaller quits, saying there isn't enough room on the disk. Conky shows 81mb free in the rootfs. How can I make the game install? thanks!

As far as I know, the answers to these questions are yes.
However, I'm quite new to the world of Qt so you would need an expert's opinion about exactly how.

Well, I don't really know what I'm taking about since I don't have it yet, but I'm sure it's optified, in which care it cries for space in the 2G partition. How much there?

Finally the program installed after I removed almost all apps. The odd thing is that there is plenty of free space on my phone before removing them, far more than Zen Bound's file size of 47mb.

I watched the rootfs space in Conky while the Ovi Store download was in progress, and the first two times that I attempted the install all 81mb of rootfs was filled, then the phone threw a warning that I was out of space.

That is exactly what Qt (with QtMobility) does QtMobility is fairly fresh, mind you, but on projects that are not already deep in the implementation phase, I would consider giving it a thorough look

EDIT: spelling

Installed fine on first try for me. Played some levels just to understand gameplay mechanichs... kudos to developers, nice and inspiring sounds indeed! Is the goal to achieve 100% or is 99 the maximum?
