Ipodlinux posted this news/release:


I am pleased to announce my first PSP release, PSPLife, which is Conway's Game Of Life Port to the PSP! Incase you don't know, here's nice wikipedia entry about it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway's_Game_of_Life.
Please mind, that it's still a BETA, whcih means I am NOT responsible to any damage to your PSP (if any). There might be faults in the GUI, algortihm, too.

So far I've tested it on 2.71 with HEN C, 2.60 with 0.98 eLoader and 1.5 (needs to be kxploited of course), and it works perfectly.

The controls are simple, D-Pad do move the cursor, O to place cells, X to start/go to next step.

I made evrything in C using Notepad++, and the graphics were made by myself in Photoshop. Compiled with the newest toolchain on cygwin.

For the moment, all graphics are PNG's, because I was too lazy to draw the manually.

I'll release the C source if anyone is interested.

Future improvements:
- Ability to choose the planet size (right now it's 10x10)
- Abiloty to restart
- Ability to remove cells.
- Ability to change the cells during 'game'play.

Bug reports, suggestions and constructive remarks are greatly appreciated.

Have fun!

Ah its fun to mess around with Conway's once you know the rules. I'll DL it when there can be a bigger map size. Its fun to make shape armies "run" towards each other and blow up :D
