DSmerlin has been updated. It is a port of the open source XMerlin handwriting recognition project for the Nintendo DS. Changes:

To improve recognition accuracy, multiple gestures for each character have been removed. There is now only 1 way to draw each character. Gestures also more closely match the Graffiti style.

Numeric characters 0-9 are now recognized.

Gestures have been added for space, backspace and return.

Just a little new Version of Commander Keen for PSP. I thought I can release a final version but there are problems with episode 2&3. So it version 0.99 instead of 1.0. I hope to fix this bug soon. Or there next version will be 0.999 🙂 Now loading and saving is supported. You can use the triangle to open save menu and you have 2 safe slots (left and right trigger). You can load via main menu (get back to main menu is also supported now).Thanks to all old school gamers who love this game.
