The international non-profit just for fun game development group Retroguru is looking for helping hands! Several of their games such as Giana’s Return, Sqrxz, Sqrxz 2 and Sqrxz 3 were ported to several oldschool (but also newschool) consoles, handhelds and computers. Still they suffer to find a helping hand to support them with homebrew Wii development. Certainly they will be also happy if you can code for other systems not yet supported such as PSX or PS2, Haiku, BeOS, etc… Most up to date engine is used in Sqrxz 3 available for 18 systems! Main code was usually done by Thor using C/SDL 1.2.

As there is no budget existing and most of the team just do games as hobby there is unfortunately no more involved than credits and fame. If you are still interested check out the Retroguru’s homepage contact section. Sources are closed source, but will be of course provided once you need them.

InterLOGIC is based on the old Amiga logic game “Balls”. The object of the game is to move balls of different colors through a maze, connecting them with other balls of the same color. Two or more connected balls of the same color will disappear. The aim of the game is to clean the whole maze in this way. The balls are connected if they are right next to each other horizontally or vertically, but not diagonally. The current release contains 30 mind-breaking levels for you to solve. Ported to Symbian OS v3 by AnotherGuest.

Retro and homebrew in once is a new UK magazine called “Homebrew Heroes“. As we had plans for ages for something like this, but never had time, it’s wonderful to see someone else has the time and power to pick up on homebrew. The price is 3.99 UK-Pounds.
Taken from the homepage:
Who is your Homebrew Hero?
Homebrew Heroes is more than just a magazine, it’s over 100 pages of retro goodness dedicated to all things homebrew. Inside you will find the top 10 homebrew games for near enough every retro console out there from the Atari 2600 to the Sega Dreamcast as well as the history of each system, tech specs and screenshots. But that is not all, not even close, we also tell you how to build your own home computer and speak to somebody who has. Alongside this we bring you the history of DIY home computing through the ages. Want to read interviews with homebrew developers? We have those for you too! .
There is even more for computer fans though as we discover the very best demos for the Amiga and Atari ST and look at the best computer art for the Commodore 64, Spectrum and Atari XL/XE.
