ColumnsDS (18-07-2010) (NDS Game)

ColumnsDS is an attempt to recreate the famous puzzle game Columns for Nintendo DS.

Changes:

* Added a splash screen
* Added an icon (transparency broken though)
* Rewrote the match detection, which should allow for things such as matching more than one set with a common gem
* Added some more music

RouteBoards (15-07-2010) (NDS Application)

RouteBoards is a route planing application for Nintendo DS.

Quote from hoitjuh55:

Last month I made a new DS program. It’s called RouteBoards.
It will show you exit/intersection boards that are on a route you made yourself!

Usage:
1. Make your own boards and routes on your PC (Windows only).
First you have to make boards with RouteBoardsDB and put them in correct order (with a direction) with RouteBoards Editor.
RouteBoards Editor will generate the routes and a file calles Routes.sav (output dir is db/).
2. Upload the boards and routes to your flashcard.
Second you have to upload the boards and routes in a specific directory on your flashcard.
Routes (.rbr) and Routes.sav: FAT:/RouteBoards/route/
Boards (.dbe): FAT:/RouteBoards/db/
3. Open the routes on your DS.
Start RouteBoards on your DS and select a route. Now you can scroll through the boards!

In RouteBoards you can also set the brightness and the background (one for day and one for night).
In the package (.zip) are two example routes.

Suggestions are welcome.

ColumnsDS (16-07-2010) (NDS Game)

ColumnsDS is a recreation of the Columns game from ages ago. It’s still an alpha though, so it’s incomplete and there’ll probably be bugs. One of which is the game not ending properly once you reach the top.

Steam Ponk v2.1 (NDS Game)

Pong so fresh, that it will spoil your fridge. Designed for two players both holding one Nintendo DS, controlling paddles on each side. Clouds and obstacles periodically scroll in from the dual screen, making it more than a hood ornament.
