This Nokia Developer example application demonstrates the use of Qt Quick Components and the SQLite database for keeping track of items for rent. RentBook alows the user to add items for rent into a database and, for example, keep track of whom the item is rented to on a certain date. The Symbian version follows the Symbian design guidelines. This example is hosted in a Nokia Developer Project, where you can find implementation notes, discover recent revisions, and contribute to the project.

Moto Trial Racer v1.2

Moto Trial Racer is a motorcycle racing game that demonstrates integrating QML with Box2D physics engine. The game uses Box2D QML plug-in as a base, but the plug-in has been modified to fit for this game. The audio implementation in the game is provided by Qt GameEnabler. The example also features in-application purchasing. The user can purchase items from the Nokia Store to enhance the game experience. The actual items are provided already in the installation but are protected by DRM (Digital Rights Management) and can only be unlocked by Nokia Store. This example is hosted in a Nokia Developer Project, where you can find implementation notes, discover recent revisions, and contribute to the project.

QuickHit v2.0

This Nokia Developer example application demonstrates the use of Qt Quick as a game platform. QuickHit is essentially a basic shooting game, but differentiated from other such games by its levels. The levels are Qt plug-ins which are loaded during QuickHit startup. IAP (In-Application-Purchase) features were added to the 2.0 version of the game. New levels can now be purchased from the Nokia Store. This example demonstrates the use of non-DRM purchasing. The levels to purchase are not bundled in the original installation but downloaded from a back-end server once payment has been made. This example is hosted in a Nokia Developer Project, where you can find implementation notes, discover recent revisions, and contribute to the project.

Space Blok Qt v1.2

Space Blok Qt is a 1-4 player game for Qt devices and desktop, where the players use marbles to break a 3D block structure. The game is implemented with Qt3D and Qt Quick and it utilises an open source physics engine, Bullet Physics Library. The application has been ported from Space Blok XNA for Windows Phone. This example is hosted in a Nokia Developer Project where you can find implementation and porting notes. Watch a video about this example application.
