KeePassX v0.4.3.1 (Pandora Application Port)

KeePassX is an application for people with extremly high demands on secure personal data management. It has a light interface, is cross platform and published under the terms of the GNU General Public License.

KeePassX saves many different information e.g. user names, passwords, urls, attachments and comments in one single database. For a better management user-defined titles and icons can be specified for each single entry. Furthermore the entries are sorted in groups, which are customizable as well. The integrated search function allows to search in a single group or the complete database.

KeePassX offers a little utility for secure password generation. The password generator is very customizable, fast and easy to use. Especially someone who generates passwords frequently will appreciate this feature.

The complete database is always encrypted either with AES (alias Rijndael) or Twofish encryption algorithm using a 256 bit key. Therefore the saved information can be considered as quite safe. KeePassX uses a database format that is compatible with KeePass Password Safe. This makes the use of that application even more favorable.

Cards DS v1.0 (NDS Game)

Cards DS is a collection of card games coded by Nobody.

Release notes:

I decided to post what i did manage to do on the game with the little free time i did. It’s nothing much, just an interactive deck that could be more interactive, and three simple card games(some with different difficulties).

The first is which card, where you guess what kind of card will the next one be, sorta like “what number am i thinking off”. The second game is high or low, your basic higher of lower game where guess if the next card will be higher or lower then than previous card value (Ace is highest). Last but not least the last game I installed was black jack. It should be fully functional and work properly, except for the computer when it comes to one scenario. Aces automatically change value according to your situation, but when it comes to the computer if it uses the ace as an 11 and go over and doesn’t change until it already declares a winner. I’ll try to fix this later, but it works for the player but not the computer, so it works in your favor. The computer tends to bust a lot too when I play, so maybe i might make the AI a little more conservative and or riskier like an actual person by using more variables to decide if he hits or not. I’m not sure if this is true, but last time I play black jack with my friends i think the said if you get both black jacks then you automatically win. I’m not sure if this is true, so could someone let me know and then i can add it if so.

As far as glitching goes when first loading a room or when reloading a room(you reload a room when you tell it to play again) it might declare winners already and call the game over. I’m not sure what’s gong on with problem, but I’ll try to fix this. Let me know what you think, and tell me what kind of card games would you like to see on it.
