Hex-a-hop

[deniska]

This is a PSP adoptation of Hex-A-Hop, a puzzle game based on hexagonal tiles, by Tom Beaumont.
The objective is simply to destroy all the green hexagonal tiles on each of the 100 levels. As you progress through the game, more types of tiles are introduced which make things more difficult and interesting (hopefully).

Hi,

i love your project.

Good Luck in Comp.

As PSP coder too, i have a few questions.

1 - Whats the language that you use? (C/C++ ?).

2 - How do you put your "graphics" in a *.dat file and use it in game?

3 - And for last, how do you do the reflection water effect?

Hope you can answer. Thanks in advance.

PS: I try to PM you, but your box is full =S.

Regards,

The game is in C++, using SDL
If you know C/C++, then just look in the code and get your answers..
The code is here: http://www.aceinternet.co.uk/~mokona/

I did some minor changes to adapt it to PSP, which did not really affect graphics files and effects

Great Job Deniska!

I downloaded it and I can't stop playing! Nice port :)

Keep the good work. Many people are cheering you :)

[zach5555]

deniska, would it be possible for you to port this game to to 3.XX kernal??? When i had the psp phat, i used to play it all the time, but i have a slim know and i cant.
Thanks

[deniska]

I'll see what I can do.. but don't expect it right away.. since I need to install SDL and all dependencies on my new dev box before I can start tweaking it

[Thargalt18]

It's a very good game : I was always playing with it on the métro lol :cool:

[deniska]

hello all- i have a psp 3.80 is there a custom firmware I can use to mod this without having to use the pandora method?

[No_one_in_particular]

No, you must use a Pandora Battery to get from 3.80 to your desired custom firmware.
