The MaxiCart is a great tool if you just want to play Atari 2600 games or you can use it to develop and test your homebrew games.Of course developing using an emulator is much cheaper, but maybe there is someone interested in this hardware solution. Thanks to Memblers for the news.http://vgwiz.com/products-hw.html#a26MC

Kedo and myself (Kojote) are working on a new puzzle game for the GP32. Goal is to remove all blue blocks from the field without running out of time or falling down the way. The dark blue fields can be touched twice. The game might enter one of the current GP32 coding competitions. There are also different blocks, allowing you only to go in one specific direction etc to make everything funnier 🙂 The game is similar to”Sensitive”on C64.

Fran?s Pessaux updated his puzzle game”Blocktrap”. Blocktrap is a small puzzle game in which you have to fight against blocks invading your territory from 3 directions. Some blocks with special properties increase difficulty a lot and make the game more interesting.http://www.gbadev.org/
