What is with people recently? He had an actual valid opinion. Alot of what made lumines was the music not just the basics of gameplay.

Nothing personal but I also question why a clone of a psp game vs making something original or modifying it to make it uniq vs a straight up copy.

Just my two cents. Maybe he could have modified it a bit to let you rotate the play field, or maybe play with the psp on it's side and give a long vertical play field.

just my 2 cents. Nothing against the author. A contribution is great and better then nothing at all, yet not forget this is not a random release, it is for a competition and one must exspect to give it everything he gots if he wishes to win (and the 1st place prize is a Wii, so its no cheap compo either).

PSmonkey, my comment wasn't about a constructive opinion from accordian, but a selfish one.

oh, " I " don't like it, so why do you release that crap?

c'mon. the scene is not about what YOU like or not, is much more than that.

if I could decide what homebrew should exist or not on my preferences, the list wouldn't be more than 10 programs..and the rest can disappear..but that's not how this works.

an example: I don't like Beats of Rage or Super Mario (original or homebrew ports), I simply can't stand playing them. I think it's extremely boring, but...lots of people don't think like me, so there you go, Beats of Rage is a big project, and Super Mario is one of the most famous games of all times.

comments like that only tells noobs: "don't do it, or you will be flamed", instead of "nice, and now, try to improve it"

I've seen this so many times, for so many years...

hmmm.

well xiringu your last post was right. but like psmonkey has mentioned this isnt a work in progress, or even just a release...its a competition entry, and there is still time to complete the entries, so why! submit a W.I.P build for a competition which isnt yet closed.......???

also what is the target audience...? people who like lumines? the same people who have lumines?

i am certain that this game will be improved upon and will most likely be an exellent final product.

you blew my post out of proportion

I think you should clear your head and reread his post. You clearly went way over what he ment or stated. He made a valid point asking why make a luminies clone without music? He did not state "Gawed this sucks, Guy should just quit coding!!"

I personaly agree with him. Why a luminies clone without music. Music was a key factor to what made lumines a big sucess.
