Starcraft. On a Touchscreen.
Posted on May 30th, 2007 in Computer software/hardware, Games, Photos/Videoes, Software/Hardware Reviews, Tech News, Time Wasters | 6 Comments »
Okay, following our recent Starcraft post, here’s another quick one. . .
A Linux mod allowing starcraft to be played on a touchscreen monitor. No more fumbling blindly for keys, or grabbing for the mouse to command units. Not even point-and-click. Just point on the screen, and its done.
I can see a few problems with the idea though. Right-click is a staple for selecting multiple units, and a keyboard is important for assigning group numbers. I think the mouse has gotta stay, but I still like the idea.
