TheDrevs entry for the Tehskeen Wii Coding Competition, a two player Bomberman.

Release notes:

Hi,
The application that could be run from homebrew channel is in app, in project there is the makefile, the sources, and the documentation.

I’ve also put a PC version on my personal web site, but without sources as mentioned in the contest rules. (If this is a problem I can remove it, but according to the contest forum thread, I think it’s ok).

The game is obviously a clone of bomberman, but with absolutly no materials from the original game. The game engine is a personal, but quit common, wrapper around SDL (SDL image, Ttf, Mixer). There is a tile map parser (GFX and Collisions) and an animation engine. There are some hard coded values, but globaly the code is designed to be change easly, with the help of the doc.

Todo:
– Support png (unsupported image format, even with wii libpng)
– Better GFX, mine are lame
– Even more abstraction

Have fun.

MIDI-Jammer turns your DS into a wireless MIDI Controller. It lets you “draw” musical ideas and shapes in a manner that is both easy to pickup for a non-musician and also consistent/coherent enough that those who are trained musicians can have a high-degree of MIDI control through the interface.

The commercial GP32 game “Super Plusha” by FaMe Soft has been released for free.

Release notes:

A little bear Plusha saves his fluffy friend Tukki and their land from aliens. You may collect or buy super items to become Super Plusha. But it isn’t necessary. You have just freed your friends.

Game supports 6 languages: English, Korean, French, Italian, Spanish and German. The game contains 6 LEVELS + 1 SECRET LEVEL. Each level contains up to 20 levels of a parallax background. Some levels aren’t linear. In the each level, there is a BOSS.

There are some flying lifts, buttons, switches, hidden triggers, teleports, locks and other items. You can collect CONES and throw then on your foes. You can crush blocks with some skills / super items. Each super item adds you a super skill (i.e. flying, crushing blocks, etc.).

You can buy some special items at Kuzya’s spiffy shop. If you have “Snake’s Continue Token” then you can save your game. It converts all your cones, tokens and super items into the money. Next time you can start playing from the saved level.

The game time is more than 5 hours. (If you don’t count SECRET LEVEL and EXTRA LEVELS)
