Changes:
Cosmetic improvements, sound code improved (optimised and some parts rewritten), uses mmu hack, change of SDK (from Minimal 0.C to Minimal 0.B). The downside being that some games now run too fast! Some however (like 1941) still run like a complete dog. ROM loading still the same as per previous version.
DROD (Deadly Rooms of Death) is a Dungeon crawling / Puzzle game developed by Caravel Games.
Its principle is simple: you inspect dungeons, you fight monsters with your sword, in turn-by-turn combats. But the silly architecture of these dungeons makes these fights extremely challenging and versatile.
As the GP2X screen is a bit small for this game, a zooming feature, allowing the user to display the whole DROD screen or to zoom on any part of it, is implemented.
