Hello, I am an old bound maker from starcraft 1 and I have been missing it greatly! So I have been developing a bounding app for android and later for ios. It has been in development for about six months but I am releasing it soon (within a few weeks). If you would like to know when it is available on the market just like it on facebook Bound on facebook and I will post a message announcing its release. Hope you guys like it!

Hello Moo! Awesome to see that you're still interested in SC in one way or another.

I don't have an Android because I'm poor and don't need one.

damn.. you will beat me to it, i am working on something really epic so it might take a while :)
but i am very interested to see when it's ready!
you can try my previous bound game here: Boundz on gameyey.com

Here's the basic version. I'm currently working on a public level editor some people can create level sets and publish them to my apps online level section. https://market.android.com/details?id=com.danphantom.bound
@Roy Yeah I'm still interested in it but I don't have much time to play it.
@Softwarewolf Yea the editor isn't very friendly haha, I just put it there so I can make levels from anywhere. Your Boundz game is Great! The explosion animation is great, did you make it yourself? I'm a noob at art so mine sucks.
Btw, I've never been that great at making bounds and so the levels are very basic.

I started it six months ago during my winter break from school. This is the first Game that I've made and I understand six months is a ridiculous amount of time, but have to understand that I didn't work on it six months straight, just in my free time.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings

Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.

NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:

Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
