HP-11C Scientific Programmable Calculator.

iLocation is a native program that pin points your current physical location and displays it in the iPhone’s Maps application. It uses the location of cellular towers your phone is connected to estimate your location. It works exactly like Google’s Mobile Maps for other phones.

Release notes:

– Will not publically release this, sorry. Google’s database of cellular tower locations is not publically available and they’ll most likely ask me to stop distributing this. Until they release a public api, I’ll keep this for myself.

You play with crayons and physics. The goal of the game is to move the red ball so that it collects the stars. You can cause the red ball to move by drawing physical objects.

Changes:

Shake-to-Menu! Finally no more using the home button to change levels!
Options screen with sound options for now.

Changes:

– ~10% speed increase due to new rendering routine.
– better smoothing/scaling in full-screen mode
-original size mode fixed
– data cubes text scroll fixed

A protracker files (.mod) replay routine for Nintendo DS, it’s a direct conversion from the original Amiga one so it’s should be as accurate as possible, also it handles modules from 4 to 16 channels and it’s very small.

DualSlot Browser lets you browse and copy files to the filesystems available. Meaning if you have two FAT based flashcarts inserted, you will have access to both! Be aware this is a very basic version.

marshall has released the source code to his N64 homebrew game Funnelcube.

gpSPhone is a GBA emulator based ZodTTD’s port of gpSP to the GP2X. gpSP is a great GBA emulator written by the talented Exophase. ZodTTD ported it to the GP2X, and added an (iPhone/iTouch compatible) dynarec. By using this coding technique, fullspeed performance of GBA is obtained on the iPhone/iTouch.

Changes:

– Slightly increased performance. Much less “hiccups”.
– Sound buffers changed. Games which run well, performance-wise, sound better. Games that run slowly will still have poor sound.
