maxthebest updated his PSP protection program.

Release notes:

Hi all.
Here I release the first revision of the final version of protect-me
Here are the changelogs since v4.0
-Added an onscreen keyboard, so that it’s easyer to input the password. (only in the prx, not in the installer…)
-Remade a good part of the code (thanks to the keyboard…)
-Now you won’t see the XMB behind your password prompt, but just … a black screen.

To install it, follow the readme instructions (in english). (but that’s not hard, unzip it, run the eboot and activate the prx…)
Here is a quote from this readme:

The name’s the deal – this changes your wallpaper for the XMB, no more, no less.

Release notes:

And here we are:
HELLCATs Wallpaper Changer

The name’s the deal – this changes your wallpaper for the XMB, no more, no less

However you have a few features:
Two modes of operation: “Everytime” and “Once per day” (see readme for details)
You can set special, predefined images for a specific date (again, check readme)
(the last one lets you set a fixed wallpaper for the specified date instead of using an all random one)

That’s it.
Short and painless.
Maybe someone might like it

Jack B. Quick is a work in progress side scrolling demo by Mark 2008.

Here are the exact release notes:

The computer I develop on….is not playing colecovision games correctly…can you believe that. I guess its not fast enough.

Well……that makes it hard to know if there is a slow down in the demo, or its just my machine. The last time I transferred this ROM to a faster machine…it was smooth. Whether it still is….don’t know, but before the game is released, of course I will have it smooth.

these are quite long term projects, perhaps…. I’m not trying to announce any imminent game…but, since I did bring up the topic of a side scroller….here is a ROM that kind of shows what I’m talking about.

And you’ll see I put on the first screen most of the tiles…I did that on purpose as kind of a demonstration as to how it works.

The screen will have more detail at the top, and I will place mountains and shrubs, to also appeal to the eye.

I may move it away from the Mario style, to the Jack Be Nimble, Nursery Rhyme world I envision….centered aroudn the medieval game of candlestick jumping…..

but….anyway…enjoy

Seems ZodTTD, famous for PSX4iPhone, gpSPhone and OpenTTD has picked up a new project, this time “Sim City”.

Read on:

So I wake up to a slew of requests to port the SimCity source code released, to the iPhone and iPod Touch. This is, quite frankly, a dream come true. I’ve always been a huge fan of SimCity, and here’s my chance to do what would become my favorite port of all time.

This project will be somewhat tough since even though it was well written, the source is for X Window for Linux.

So should I begin work on yet another project, or should I focus all my attention on updates to gpSPhone, for instance?

What is sure to be my favorite project, may not be your favorite. Let me know here:
