Sphinxter released Buzzy’s Bad Day for GP2x.

Release notes:

Brand X presents, “Buzzy’s Bad Day”, another solo effort by Linus Sphinx depicting the classic struggle for life and death in the garden of evil in this latest artistic shooter entry in his Return To The Arcade series. This time out you take the role of Buzzy, one big ugly bug with a bad attitude who woke up stuck to the bottom of someone’s shoe on the wrong side of the botanical gardens carnivorous floral exhibit and bird aviary. You need to get home to get bizz-ay and ultimately preserve the species in a final climactic ending that could only be described as insect pornography unlocking the gateway to Buzzy’s secret garden of love and an infinite number of levels.

NOTE: This game is not rated. Scenes and subject matter depicted may be considered offensive and highly unsuitable for larvae in the pre-pupae stage.

Quote from http://www.digital-circuits.org/mdiv2/index.html :

This is a quite unusual “scene” demo. As it is unusual in several aspects. It has a very uncommon style using lots of multilayered effects, nearly no 3d scenes and a it has only a “sound-background” instead of the usual, mostly techno-style demo musics.

The other very unusual aspect is that this demo is 100% system independent, it is portable. This was achieved by programming the demo in 100% ANSI C and using no hardware or OS-specific functions (special interrupts etc.)

The demo has been ported to Dreamcast by Marq/Fit.

The 64kb Intro “Viagra” by Mewlers ( http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=293 ) has been ported over to the Dreamcast by Marq/Fit.

Space Rocks 2x is an asteroids clone by Alex MacVean.

Vorton is a Vorton is a remake of the classic game Highway Encounter.

Description (from Wikipedia):

Highway Encounter is a strategy/action game played from a 3D isometric perspective in which you must successfully chaperone a bomb along a long, straight stretch of highway and into the alien base at the end of it. There are thirty screens to pass through and most are filled with hazards that threaten to block your progress (such as barrels) or destroy you (aliens and explosive mines).

Players control a robotic “Vorton” (resembling a dalek from Doctor Who) and one of the things that provides Highway Encounter with its unique appeal is that the bomb is constantly being pushed onwards by your extra lives – four more Vortons, who accompany you along the highway. It is in fact possible for all your extra lives to be lost without the player character being destroyed once.

Changes:

– Fixed the “Continue” issue. This is now a flight demo.
– Uses .MOD Files for Music Playback
– usage of mmuhack for speedup in flight demo

How to play:

Choose a play and watch it unfold, as your teammates run along their routes…

Get ready to pass the ball to an open catcher, and lead him to the goal zone!

But watch out for the blocky-blocker, who can intercept the ball and stop your catchers before they score.
