homescreen 3D – an OpenGL Android program launcher

Video demonstrating my first “experiment” with the Android Market. An answer to a question nobody asked, namely: “What if you made an Android program launcher in 3D?”

It was, to be frank, a gigantic pain in the ass coding the motion for this, since there seems to be no Tweener-like class written in Java (Java, not processing…). Anyone know of one?

Built using min3D.

    Hi Lee,

    I’m playing around with your engine and really like it :)
    Maybe this is a noob question (I’m new to Android development),
    but how do you implement touch events in a min3D scene?

    Best regards
    Paul
