SuperTux v0.1.3.6 (Pandora Game Port)

SuperTux is a classic 2D jump’n run sidescroller game in a style similar to the original Super Mario games covered under the GPL.

Changes:

1. Enabled the mouse. I believe it didn’t work in my PND or the original as they were using a modified version of libSDL. I’m going to use the default one on the Pandora and see if it causes any problems.
2. The level editor now works on the 800×480 resolution.
3. I’ve included documentation with some basic Pandora specific instructions plus the README from the original game.
4. Added more screenshots for it (my screenshots were taken on my desktop, and are 640×480, if anyone wants to provide proper 800×480 screenshots, you’re more than welcome). I also changed the icon to be the icon from the original game. You’re welcome, milkshake!
5. Added the “Tux Strikes Back” levelset. Can be found under “Bonus Levels”.

CrystalStacker v1.5.0.1 (Pandora Game Port)

If you’ve played Columns then you know what Crystal Stacker is all about. Match 3 or more of the same color crystals either horizontally, vertically, or diagonally to destroy them. For every 45 crystals you destroy, the level increases and the crystals fall faster. The higher the level, the more points you are awarded for destroying crystals.

PNDstore v1.0.3.0 (Pandora Application)

PNDstore is an essential application for all Pandora users! It acts as “store” system for many Pandora related things such as games, emulators and applications. The system is easy to use and so it is pretty simple to get more content on your Pandora!

Release notes:

This release is mostly for stability, with almost no UI changes. They’ll come eventually.
– Adds full support for version 3.0 of the repository spec. This allows list updating to be done more efficiently, though the improvements are likely not noticeable to humans
– Properly scans all appropriate directories for PNDs, including pandora/mmenu
– Ctrl+Q shortcut closes the GUI
– Will fail gracefully when encountering network connectivity errors, rather than acting like it’s working

Stella (03-10-2011) (SVN) (A2600 emu for Pandora)

Stella is a multi-platform Atari 2600 VCS emulator released under the GNU General Public License (GPL). The Atari 2600 Video Computer System (VCS), introduced in 1977, was the most popular home video game system of the early 1980’s. Now you can enjoy all of your favorite Atari 2600 games on your Pandora device thanks to Stella!

Release notes:

This is just a quick port to the Pandora of the current (20111003) SVN-version. No bios-file or similar data is needed to run the emulator. This version does not use hardware-acceleration and does not run PAL-games, but it should work fine with NTSC-games and still should be fast enough to run at standard speed. You also can pass a rom-name to the run.sh-script for example by using /usr/pandora/scripts/pnd_run.sh. run pnd_run.sh without any parameter for a short description.
