QQ Manto v0.5b (PSP Game)

This game is largely inspired by Line Rider. Although there’s no way to “win” the game, the point is to try and create interesting and fun patterns of lines for a blob to ride through.

Thanks to http://www.dcemu.co.uk for the news.

NES.app v1.00 RC2 (NES emu for iPhone)

NES.app is a Nintendo emulator for Apple’s iPhone. NES.app uses a modified version of the popular InfoNES emulation core to mimic the 6502 processor in a Nintendo Entertainment System, allowing you to play ROM dumps of games designed for the NES console. ROM dumps are files containing the dumped instruction code from a physical cartridge. In many cases, you are legally entitled to posess a ROM dump of any game that you presently own. ROM images for NES are widely available online, or with the appropriate hardware, you can dump them yourself directly from the cartridge.

NES.app started as a fork of iPhoneNES v0.01, but has been completely rewritten to run very fast, and with many additional features including full sound, game genie codes, saved games, battery-saved ram support, and full screen support.

Changes since v1.00 RC1:

[nervegas] Added suspend for incoming call, graceful exit for power off
[nervegas] Removed “Allow Suspend” option, too complicated with sound
[nervegas] Changed on-demand installer text to be more coherent+restart
[nervegas] Added Swap A/B Preference
[nervegas] Tapered off buttons in full screen / landscape mode
[nervegas] Cleanup of full screen code, fixes for buffer overruns
[nervegas] Fixed some games not appearing right in full screen
[nervegas] New icon to experiment with
[nervegas] Fixed sound looping issues (e.g. Zelda, Faxanadu, etc)

NOTE: Use vibrate mode to avoid losing sound to Mail/SMS

Boomshine2x v1.02 (GP2x Game)

Boomshine2x is a relaxing game where the aim is to cause a chain reaction of explosions to complete each level.

Author release notes:

I finally got round to updating Boomshine2x yesterday. Now it has some new optimisations to increase speed slightly and reduce slowdown in the later levels, and a new type of shapes, with its own scoreboard that can be selected from the options menu. You can cycle through the different scoreboard on the high scores screen using L and R.

Status for pdroms.de (misc)

Dear visitors,

As everyone knows the news-service is back since a while. Actually it was not planed to have the news public that fast again, and the main site is currently using some free RSS to HTML service, which also brings quite a big delay for all news (unless you have access to the beta page).

If you use an RSS feed reader, you are highly encouraged to order the feed and stick with the feed, till pdroms is fully back (which means including file-downloads, interviews, etc…).

As the beta page is password protected but the feed is located there, some RSS feed reader will start mocking – so you need to try if this also applies to your feed reader or not. In case you are using Opera’s integrated feed reader, everything should work fine and flawless.

Also help building up a community and use the webboard which is located at http://www.pdroms.de/phpbb – The webboard for some reason has always been almost dead… anyway… 🙂

And while I am at it, the currect coding compo details can be found at: http://www.pdroms.de/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=341 – please spread the word about it, there are still 17 days left and the prizes are quite funky 🙂

Regards
Kojote & Team

PSP Wave Changer 1.1 (PSP Application)

This application by Akez flashes “own waves” to a PSP. Regarding the author it is fairly easy to use and it shouldnt brick your PSP unless the file you select to copy is not a system_plugin_bg.rco file.

Changes:

The bug in the previous version is now fixed.
Also i have made the application look better by adding a background image, etc.

Mobile RSS v0.5.1 (iPhone Application)

Sick of having to keep RSS feeds as bookmarks on the iPhone? Don’t like having to browse to a website to check your feeds? Ever wanted a native RSS reader on the iPhone? Well this project is here to fix all of that.

The goal of Mobile-RSS is to create a native iPhone application which will remember all your feeds and give you an easy interface for viewing, adding, and removing.

iPhone-SDL-MAME WIP (Arcade emu for iPhone)

There are some news about the MAME port to iPhone (there is no download yet).

Quoted directly from the homepage:

CURRENT STATUS: As expected, performance is an issue. For example, Pacman and Q*bert run quite well, but Galaga and Gyruss are marginal even with frame skipping and lowered sound quality. The SDL port was the quickest way to get everything up and running without having to delve into the guts of MAME. I just started working on porting older versions and hopefully I’ll find something that’s acceptable.
