Made a PSP version!


The game now has a PSP version!

Doesn't run on real hardware at the moment, but you can test it out on PPSSPP.
Was a pain to set up, but it was a fun project and I wish I could have gotten it better then it is right now.

Sadly, my PSP crashes when actually loading the game, and I suspect it has something to do with texture allocation, as this game is heavily texture dependent.

The screenshot is the game running on PPSSPP.

Hurdles when getting this version working:

  • The PSP hardware only supports up to 512x512 textures. Obviously a pain when the backbone of your game is having hi-res assets, and the main level had to be rescaled to accommodate.
  • FPS fluctuation - it might be the amount of sprites on screen rotated, scaled, and tinted at once, but when the timer kicks in and you have about 6 boxes on screen, you get lots of lag. It's bad.
  • Lack of documentation. This is an already defunct console, and the modding scene died a few years ago. Lots of documentation just doesn't exist on the internet anymore. Wayback Machine was my best friend.
