Mine Shaft by Nioreh is a classic fall down game, but instead of a ball with a litte guy. The level is endless and the game ends when you fall off the screen.

The gameplay is very simple. You need to jump to upper platforms. Each pixel scrolling will give you 1 point. If you fall down the screen, you’ll loose. The goal is to make as many points as possible.

PCSX-ReARMed is another PCSX fork, based on PCSX-Reloaded. It has no relation to PSX4ALL, PSX4Pandora or PCSX4ALL (other than being PCSX derived) and has the source available (under GPL2). The main feature it has is Ari64’s dynarec, modified to suit PCSX. There is a bit of NEON for color space conversion too. The compatibility should be close to the PC version.
Other notes:
BIOS files are optional, but are needed for compatibility with some games. These uncompressed files should be copied to /pandora/appdata/pcsx_rearmed/bios/ , and selected after launching the emulator itself (Optopns -> BIOS/Plugins).
