A new coding competition that GP2X and Mobile Phonne Coders can enter, heres the full details:
More info --> http://edgelib.com/index.php?node=competition ...Welcome to the Cutting EDGE Coding Competition! This competition is open to all developers, whether you are an individual, a group of individuals or a company who is using either an evaluation or commercial version of the EDGE library.
We decided to make a few changes in the competition. First of all, due to popular demand the deadline is extended to August 31st 2006!
Additionally, thanks to our collaboration with Pocketmotion, creators of the TiltCONTROL hardware device, we extended the competition with a new category: Best TiltCONTROL Enabled Game. As of version 2.40, EDGE fully supports the TiltCONTROL technology.
This divides the Cutting Edge Coding Competition in two categories: Best Cross Platform Game and Best TiltCONTROL Enabled Game.
As for the prizes: We believe it wouldn't be fair to offer a Gizmondo unit after the collapse of Tiger Telematics earlier this year, so we came up with a nice replacement for the Best Cross Platform Game category: an iPod Video! Furthermore, the kind folks at Pocketmotion offer a Sony PSP as the grand prize in the Best TiltCONTROL Enabled Game category!
Category "Best Cross Platform Game"
The submitted game supports at least two platforms (i.e. Windows Mobile Pocket PC, Symbian Series 60, Windows Mobile Smartphone). The judging criteria will be based on:
1. Cross Platform considerations
2. Originality
3. Game Play
4. Fun Factor
Any additional support such as graphical effects and multi-networking games will earn you extra credit!
Prize
The winner will receive a ton of cool stuff:
- An iPod Video
- A two year commercial EDGE license
- $5,000 worth of free advertising at Clickgamer.com to promote the winning game
Category "Best TiltCONTROL Enabled Game"
The submitted game makes use of Pocketmotion's TiltCONTROL hardware device. The judging criteria will be based on:
1. Originality
2. Game Play
3. Fun Factor
Any additional support such as graphical effects and multi-networking games will earn you extra credit!
Prize
The winner will receive a ton of cool stuff:

Competition Judges
The Cutting EDGE Coding Competition will call upon an independent panel of Windows Mobile Pocket PC and Smartphone and Symbian Smartphone experts from throughout the world to judge and select winners for the best game entries.

Ditlew one of the two coders of the Eloader has released a new menu for Eloader, heres what he says:
Download and Give Feedback Via CommentsHi Folks
The 2 main features asked for in the feedback I got from the last public beta was gfx and alpha-sorting of the homebrew list. So I've looked into if that could be added without compromising the 3 keywords I have for eMenu.. simple, fast, stable. I think I've done it, let me know.
0.) eMenu-- is meant to be a simple, fast, stable no bs alternative to the standard eLoader menu.
1.) This is intended for use with eLoader v0.95+
2.) This is not an 'offical' release, it is only a public beta, meant for people to try out and give me some feedback. Don't download this file unless you know how to use a custom menu with the eLoader. If you don't, please wait for the proper release.
3.) No support is offered on this menu yet. If you don't know what to do with this file, don't download it. I don't want you to ruin your eLoader setup.
4.) I'm not going solo here, even though I'm the one working on eMenu--, it is a F&D project, and will be released as a part of the eLoader package.
Feedback can be emailed to [email protected].

A port of the Verge RPG Creation Engine for the GP2X has been released. If you havent heard of Verge before heres the description from the homepage:
Verge3 (Vecna's Extrodinary Role-playing Game Engine) is a game engine designed to help people make rpgs, but it can actually make most any game in a Genesis/ Super Nintendo style. It is Windows Native, written in C++, and allows for a huge amount of flexibility.
The GP2X port is an early version so expect some bugs. check out the Verge homepage at http://www.verge-rpg.com/ for more information in general
