Zear has updated the recent Powder release. It’s now in sync with the latest Release/Build 110.

To understand POWDER (http://www.zincland.com/powder/ ), you should first understand roguelikes. “Roguelike” is a term applied to a wide variety of games which share a common inspiration from the game Rogue. A non-exhaustive list of such games would be: ADOM, Nethack, Crawl, Diablo (I & II), Moria, and Angband.

Boomshine2x is a relaxing game where the aim is to cause a chain reaction of explosions to complete each level.

Changes:

I have released Boomshine2x 1.1 for the GP2x. The new version features improved graphics by Ruckage, a near complete re-write of the games code and various bits and bobs like the ability for F200/Wiz users to sign their name for the highscore screen. There are also five other shapes added by GPH of all people. Wasn’t that nice of them?

Animatch is a tile matching game based on Zoo keeper for the DS (Zooo on GBA). The aim of the game is to create a row of 3 or more animals either horizontally or vertically by swapping tiles. Tiles can only be swapped if it results in a row of three or more of the same animal otherwise the tiles will swap back again. When a row of animals is made they dissapear from the board and the tiles above fall into their place.

If you enjoy the game and would like to donate some money to either ruckage or Pat you can do so at their websites. Any ammount is greatly appreciated and will help with future projects.

Help hungry Rabbit eat as many carrots as he can! Traverse the void in death defying leaps, one false move and Rabbit will join the Great Bunny in the sky! The platform gaps get wider, and Rabbit runs faster – how long can you keep him running? Can you stop him tumbling to his doom in the bottomless abyss?

Release notes from GRZ:

Hello,

i ported “Run Rabbit RUN!” to gp2x, it’s a full 3D game which use the 3D engine Irrlicht, i ported the latest version of this engine on gp2x too (use SDL/two software rasterizer), some would say that it’s unplayable but actually it’s pretty good, the only problem i got is that i can’t stay with original models which require too much polys for the gp2x, so if there is a 3D modeler somewhere who want to do 2-3 very low polys models (actually there is only 3 “floor” model, one rabbit models and carrot to do), it would be cool, i think even billboards would be sufficient for carrots/rabbit. 🙂

I compiled an alpha version with original models replaced by quick simple primitives (box etc, ~70polys on screen) which run at 14/15fps without overclocking and memory tweaks (20fps at 266mhz), also it use the first software renderer which have clipping problem, it’s pretty unoptimized since the game use alot of real-time stuff to check collisions etc… sorry for F100 owner, my irrlicht port has no pads events, only touchscreen. (it will be fixed in a final release)

Download link for the alpha port: http://www.garzul.tonsite.biz/RunRabbit/run_rabbit2x.zip

Controls: Only touchscreen since the game need only one button to play, just press to jump. 🙂

Models are in .obj format and can be textured, more type of floor can be added too. (check the media folder)
