    psp Cave Story PSP port

    News/release from ufoz



    I wanted to do an actual free homebrew Cave Story PSP port for quite a while now. What with the Variant deal being mostly unclear / cancelled / whatever, it's time I got off my ass and tried it.

    Finally got Pixel's approval and the source code. It looks doable, but at ~50000 lines of code it's a little daunting.

    This is the preview version that I sent to Pixel, so it's mostly guesswork and buggy and certainly feels different from the original. Playable up to the first boss fight. Dual-language English and Japanese Tested on 3.10, should work unmodified with most custom firmware.

    Will try to do this in four stages:
    1. get the windows version working with the alternate screen size (480x272)
    2. port filesystem+graphics+input handling
    3. port sound+music
    4. add menus (key config) etc.

    I expect this will take a while, so I guess I'll try my best.

    This is great work! I'm sure many people will follow development and be with you on this! Even more so that you've got official confirmation from the creator, which is excellent.

    Oh wow, this was almost like a dream of mine! I will try this out immediately!

    ...

    or, at least, that is what I would have said, if my PSP was not stolen from me...

    Oh well. But, I do have one question... is the music the same as the original PC one, with the cool, synthesized music? But... this is definitely one project I look forward to trying one day

    I LOVE YOU.
