News/release from Snowymydog
Before introducing my new homebrew, I would like to appologise for my broken English. English is not my mother language, I hope everyone can understand what I'm going to tell you.
"Pipeline" is remake of the famous puzzle game "Pipemania(aka Pipedream"). Rules are simple: construct a path using the randomly generated pipes from starting point to ending point. Water starts to flow when timer finishes the countdown. If you let the water spill out or did not meet the minimum distance requirement, you fail.
I do all the coding and gfx. Sfx from flashkit.com & soundsnap.com. This homebrew is entering the PSP-Hacks homebrew competition.
Save/Load and Highscore is not coded. In this release, I have included 20 levels. My target is total 50 levels in the final release. GFX and SFX will continue to enhance. The game play itself have nothing more I can do. All I wanted is bug report and comments. Good or bad, love or hate, just tell me.
This game should work on Slim PSP, since I do not own one, please let me know it works.
I need reports about the difficulties of the game. Your opinions are very important. I'll make adjustment on next release. Thanks.
Controls:
D-pad: moves the cursor
X or O: put down a pipe
Triangle: Speed up the timer and water flow
Start: pause/resume game

I've spent the past few days working hard on psx4all. While it still runs too slowly on the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch, compatibility is getting better. For instance the games can now be properly loaded through the BIOS and the Sony Playstation BIOS screen appears.
Temper4iphone, the Turbo Graphix 16 / Turbo Duo (PC-Engine / PC-CD) emulator for the iPhone and iPod Touch is still on its way. Exophase, the author of emulator this port is based on, has released an update, and I'd like to incorporate those changes into the port.
For those wondering of the mystery package, it's of a Pandora. The Pandora is a purely homebrew driven handheld with a focus on video games. It uses bleeding edge technology and wow is it fast! At it's default 600MHz using the new OMAP3 processor, Playstation emulation of Final Fantasy 7 runs in-game at 65 FPS (a bit over fullspeed) or higher. When overclocked to 900MHz you start seeing 100 FPS and higher in-game!
While the Pandora will take some of my freetime away at the moment, I am still focused on Apple iPhone and iPod Touch software. No worries there. There's room for both here at ZodTTD.
Sorry for the delay in responding to private messages, I'll get right on that now. It's been a busy week indeed!
