Simple Screen Recorder by Maarten Baert is a screen recorder for Linux. Despite the name, this program is actually quite complex. It’s ‘simple’ in the sense that it’s easier to use than ffmpeg/avconv or VLC. Ported to Pandora by Farox.

Yamagi Quake II is an enhanced client for id Software’s Quake II. The main focus is an unchanged single player experience like back in 1997, thus the gameplay and the graphics are unaltered. Over 1000 bugs were fixed and an extensive code audit done, making Yamagi Quake II one of the most solid Quake II implementations available. Ported to Pandora by pickle.

Master Control by Roger ‘Crionic’ Zoellner is a tool that allows you to use your Pandora as a HID device.

Changes:

– Gui
Added a status bar at the bottom of the window. This will be used to display
some information (currently only used for a few bluetooth messages).

– Bluetooth
Initiating a connection to a host has been disabled for now because this
could cause some troubles. These problems are still under investigation…
However, a host still may connect to the Pandora and MC will accept the connection.

Some smaller improvements

– Startup script
The script will now try to unload conflicting modules. These modules will be
reloaded, when MC terminates.
If something goes wrong, an error dialog should appear

Dooom is a Doom port for the Dingoo Native OS by the_wub, which itself is based mainly on the Chocolate Doom source port by Simon Howard.

Release notes:

Version 1.2 is only different by one line of code […] It changes how the save game folder is created and now does this using the name of the .wad or .txt file used to launch the game. This means you get a full amount of save slots for each game and don’t have to share with the underlying wad.

In Blockaid by Jayenkai you have to guide a ball to collect the green blocks, whilst avoiding retreading the same path. Floor tiles will slowly reset as you move, but try not to create a blockade along the way. Additionally, there are randomly appearing walls, and spikes, which will attempt to thwart your efforts.
