^ I agree with you. I applaud the coder for trying, but at least try to make the game decent enough for front page. We don't have to be extremely nice to every coder out there just because he made a game. Not trying to put you down, John, just work on it.

I see too much of this negative posting on DCEMU these days.. :(Quote:

This is actually ridiculous and goes against everything DCEMU stands for. I've never seen this kind of attitude here before. Let me explain it to you guys:
Bomberman for NES\SNES: Made by skilled team of developers and llegal on your PSP if you don't own an authentic copy(which 99% of you probably don't)
Homebrew Bomberman: Released by a relatively new coder FOR FREE(i.e. no monetry gain) to contribute to the PSP community and learn alot in the process from racking code knowledge together and getting constructive critisism.
Now, what I don't understand is why the **** you can't get that through your head. For Christ's sake.
Now I really feel like I'm going to be comfortable when I release my first game.
Sanity! :) You get my point entirely :o Why do these people try to belittle someone who is adding to the PSP scene? I dont see them contributing :mad: This site NEVER used to be like this - it seems to be an influx of kids that spoil it for everyone else :(Quote:

yes i have to heartily agree on this one.
John, just like any other coder, will need to find his feet. telling him not to bother is a dumb thing to do, since it will merely discourage him and other potential coders from contributing to the scene.
what he will really need is feedback which will help him learn how to improve his code, such as bugs, game "quirks", unexpected "features" - and most importantly - how to reproduce those bugs so that he can fix them and gain the knowldge for future reference.
negative comments lead only to negative reactions. There was a time the psp-homebrew scene was beginning to remind me of the Amiga days, when public domain for people's bedrooms was commonplace and it was a truely great thing....
unfortunatly the scene is becoming flooded with the wrong type of user quite frankly, and they seem determined to drag everybody down to their level.
John, i also apologise for going off on one there. i'm not really a LUA user myself, but i may make an exception for this one and install it, as a result of what's been said here. keep at it mate, your efforts will only lead to improvements, and in time i'm sure you'll achieve what you want to with your programming.
ive been in this scene a very long time.Quote:

if you wouldnt pay money for a game, dont download it. Id pay money for these awesome snes gba and n64 emus. Id pay money for devhook and pimpstreamer.
but once again good job flooding the front page with stuff only a handful of people will download and even less will retain.
so? that makes your opinion more important than someone else's does it? wrong my friend. very very wrong. you're still only 16 and frankly you need to grow up fast, because you're annoying a fair few people with your remarks.Quote:

why f**king not?? he's doing it for his own reasons (probably to learn) and wants to share it. Just because you dont give a toss about it doesnt make it irrelevent. It may be irrelevent to you, fair enough, all you have to do is ignore it, but you seem incapable of even this.Quote:

wrong again. the point you dont seem to understand is that games such as those were written by HIGHLY SKILLED coders. Matthew Smith who wrote JSW is considered by *many* coders to be a great inspiration since the reason his games were so successful was because he was able to push the limitations of a much simpler machine, something a team of modern coders just dont seem bothered to do.Quote:

Homebrew coders working on their own (in a similar way to the old-school coders) have already proven that far more interesting programs can be produced for the PSP than have been created the "professionals" which you seem to adore so much.
maybe you would. (although seeing as you started a thread about the PSP games you are downloading - i very much doubt you would pay for anything)Quote:

however the fact is most people are happy to not be paying for homebrew software, and some coders may even be reluctant to charge (seeing as their program may be unfinished of buggy, or perhaps they are simply doing it out of the love of coding) - with this in mind people do not have to expect commercial quality homebrew.
please, if you dont like it... go somewhere else.Quote:

again - i'm sorry for dragging this thread off-topic, like this, but if people are going to make childish comments like djk has made, then i think they need some explaining done to them.
dcemu supports all coders, we are not elitist. All coders have to start some were!
I totally support John! He has spent much of his spare time to make a good game, and the first comment he gets is negatively loaded. That's just pathetic and not really inspirative.
As someone already said, there are people who appreciate any effort in contributing to the PSP Homebrew scene.

Anything homebrew in my book deserves a chance, I grew up with the first bomberman on the amiga and I have played a few diff platform versions, and they were all good in my opinion.
Good work, ignore this guy as he seems to be annoying everyone.
