As most of you know rlyeh is working on a couple of emulators. Yesterday I had an email in my box telling the curret state of fGB which is a port of GNUBoy by Laguna.The beta”fGB32 v25/09/03″has those changes: (BETA not avaliable to the public yet)* Optimizations done* 4mb zipped rom support* Screen Stretching.The compatibility is allready very high and still increasing. SRAM saves are working, sound support is also given (crystalclear sound!). The next version of this emulator should be a public one. As soon as the emulator is released you’ll read it here at pdroms 😉

The one or other might enter a production into the PDRoms Coding Competition (allowed are demos/intros and games for Gameboy Classic, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, GP32), so here is a small status information.The past days I were able to get four well known companies to support the competition (Gamefreax,Mitsui Co. Ltd.,GBAX,Success-HK). The current prizes in total: 300 EUR in cash, 240 US$ in coupons, one GP32 handheld with backlight, one GBA SP handheld, 10 GP32 T-Shirts, two 256mbit gba flasher sets, one 128mbit gba flasher set, etc… (more to come, hopefully)The rules were also slightly updated to clear out misunderstandings which appeared till now. Get full details on the page linked below. If there are still questions left you can join EFNET #pdroms and ask 😉http://www.pdroms.de/pdrc1-rules.php

By controlling four separate characters, arrange the moving boxes in the correct order before they drop off the screen. Starts out slow, but picks up speed quickly. Have fun!Atari 2600Gunfight by Manuel Polik…It’s shoot-out time and you’ve got to be faster than your opponent or the computer. Move, dodge, or hide behind a covered wagon or cactus. But whatever you do, don’t waste your time because your opponent is shooting back. Take your position, aim, and fire before he gets you…Warring Worms by Billy EnoWarring Worms is like an advanced and expanded version of the classic game Surround. While avoiding walls, each worm can shoot a cannon that will destroy a single block on the playing field, or kill the opposing worm. There are eight starting playfields, a single player and two player mode, hostile environment games, wrap around games and every combination of those possible with a total of 256 game variations in all! This version is set to a good 1 player mode as the default, be sure to set the left difficulty to advanced for full speed!http://starbase.globalpc.net/minigame/
