News/release from Imerion
The game SmallBall in Changeland, has received an update with the following new features :
* A new scoring system, which makes the game more challenging. You now gain more score when picking up points quicker. The old, points-based system is still there as well.
* Increased speed. The game now runs a lot quicker, which was needed in the GP2X-port which slowed down a lot later on in games.
* A few bug fixes.
If you missed the first news post about the game, here is a quick description :
Try to gain as much points as possible while navigating around enemies.
Controls will change now and then making it much harder than it seems.
Ultra-fast gameplay, some neat graphic effects and catchy music is the premise of SmallBall in Changeland.

News/release from Adventus
Hiya,
Heres the 1st public Beta of my Zdoom port: Download
Notes:
- Due to its dependency on FMOD it doesn't support sound at the moment.
- The performance is also not as good as the other Ports, for this reason i disabled transparencies.... which lead to some strange graphical glitches (a few flickering walls, nasty menu text, etc). However it is very playable in its current state. I will look to improve this.
- So far I've tested the Strife, Doom 1, Hexen & Heretic demos. Its up to you guys to test the rest. I suspect some of the more complicated mods might not be playable.
- Don't forget to read 2xZdoom220.txt and go to the "customize controls" menu to set the controls for each game.
- Apart from fixing any bugs, i intend on improving the performance and supporting sound via Timidity and Mikimod.
