PrBoom is a cross-platform version of the classic 3D first person shooter Doom from id Software. Originally written for PC, PrBoom has been lightly modified to run on GP2X.
Release notes from Pickle:
This is the latest version of PrBoom 2.5.0 for the gp2x.
Its using all the latest open2x libs and stuff. Supports everything the previous versions did, but it should work with USB keyboards (did not test)
I used mongolito404 control code from the previous version, so thanks to him for doing most of the work.
I was playing around with it so can be ready for the wiz and pandora, so expect it to be ready day 1.
As a side note I have some very good improvements to wolf4sdl. This would have been a double release, but unfortunately there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out.

sepulep released a modified version of Pickle’s Dosbox port for the GP2x.
Release notes:
(Pickle’s port) compiled with a FM synth running on the 940 core, as well as the sources for this (and an example configuration)
it is alpha, works only for OPL2 synthesis at the moment. It doesn’t do miracles but gives a little bit more speed, I think. OPL3 support is included now, but too slow at the moment (the second core cannot keep up).
to test simply copy over executable (“dosbox”) and put the soundcore file (“code940.bin”) in the dosbox directory.
A source three with all the files different from Pickle’s port is included. The src/hardware/940 directory contains the fm engine and compiles seperately.
