Lumiappaday #98: Top Truck demoed on the Nokia Lumia 800
Here’s Top Truck, one of many in this genre of driving your vehicle whilst managing its tilt as it rides along some steep inclines and descents. Catch green power ups, avoid red ones.

Here’s a popular game for all platforms, it’s Air Hockey. One such version of this game is by Hyperkani (a Symbian/Nokia developer on Nokia store. Very pleased to see them making apps for our Lumia).

Here’s Basketball (by developers Lucky Game).

Lumiappaday #95: My Data Speed demoed on the Nokia Lumia 800
I got emailed a while ago asking for an application that would tell you the bandwidth speed of your internet connection. With the N900 it could simply load up desktop like flash and interact with it as so. The likes of the Lumia/N9 don’t have flash though (and they’re a little too heavy for [...]
Lumiappaday #94: Amazing Weather demoed on the Nokia Lumia 800.
There are quite a number of weather apps available for your Lumia on Marketplace. Lumiappaday #77 with Ali was the weather app called Vadret (now called Weather View btw).

Another Nokia/Lumia exclusive app for WP, today we take a look at ESPN for WP (on the market place you can find ESPN ScoreCenter and ESPN news, but ‘ESPN’ can only be found on your Lumia Phone under ‘Nokia Collections’); which is why there is no real “developers blurb” and the link below is dead [...]
Lumiappaday #79: StraySperm demoed on the Nokia Lumia 800
Here’s another simple but fun game to pass the time. It’s called Stray Sperm, a somewhat odd name and angle for a game but bear with me.
