Update:: I decided to hijack this post for a little update on the development status.
While still I have a couple of PSP projects in mind, lately my interests has shifted towards developing stuff for iPhone. As a result my first game, Cryptix, has hit the App store:

Here is my entry to the NEO Summer Coding Contest:

SUPER METHANE BROTHERS PSP v1.4.8
http://deniska.dcemu.co.uk/images/smb1.png

This is a PSP adoptation of Super Methane Brothers, a commercial Amiga platformer by Apache Software Ltd.
The port is based on V1.4.8 of a linux conversion of the game by Mark Page.


GAME PLAY
Puff and Blow each have a Methane Gas Gun which fires a cloud of immobilising gas.
If this comes into contact with a bad guy he will be absorbed into the gas and then float
around the screen for a limited time. Bad guys are harmless in this state. Puff and Blow
must suck the floating gas clouds into their guns and blast them out against a vertical
surface. Bad guys then turn into bonuses which can be collected. Be warned! - the gas
cloud dissolves with time after which baddies become active again and extremely annoyed.


FEATURES
- 1 or 2 player game
- More than 100 levels
- Numerous bosses
- Secret rooms
- Lots of powerups
- Cheats (to be revealed later)

INSTALLATION
This game requires "homebrew-friendly" custom psp firmware to run.
- copy SuperMethaneBros folder in to ms:/PSP/GAME or ms:/PSP/GAMEXXX (where XXX is your custom firmware version number)
- to activate an add-on or a cheat you need to drop the cheat file in to SuperMethaneBros folder.
(for example, to make the game run faster create and drop file, named "fast")
