This time around, every game will have it’s own quickly made titlescreen. Not wanting to spend too much time doing each one, I figured I’d get away with doing NES style titles. They’re simple, but effective. I’m deciding all this, now, because it’s so much easier than having to frantically throw it all together, later [...]

For DS Development, I use PALib and DevKitPro. DevKitPro compiles everything nicely for the DS, whilst PALib is a set of functions that makes everything nice and usable, as opposed be being a baffling chaotic mess! However, if you try updating it, a whole fleet of incompatibilities arise, be it because of DevKitPro changing, or [...]

A nice and simple game, this week. Since I’m trying to decide what style Platdude Retro Collection 2 should have, I decided to try out a style in Blitz first, and see how it looks. You might notice it’s still a little Atari 2600. .. I’m not sure if I’ll stick with that. But I [...]

I say “Project”, but of course, being me, I mean projectS.. #1 PRC:2 – 0% I’m restarting Platdude’s Retro Collection from scratch, and building it up a bit bigger than last time, with nicer per-game spritesheets and things like that.

Each one’s selectable from the very uninteresting title [...]

My mum likes crosswords!!! And, heck. I like crosswords, too! Except, the trouble is, there’s not really a decent crossword game on the DS. Don’t get me wrong, there’s a fair few games, and The Times (released this week) in particular, has a cracking selection of clues/answers, and some really nice layouts. In fact, it’s [...]

Doing your homework on the back of the bus.. A crazy week of illness, busyness, and a party, have meant that this week’s game had to be done.. .. um.. today! And, as you could probably guess. I ain’t got Jack! There’s still a game, though! Take a look inside to see what it is..

I’ve taken onboard a few of AuthenticKaizen’s suggestions, and there’s now a slightly better edition of Disasteroids available. Same download link, right here The game’s pretty much the same as it was on Tuesday, except with a few added powerups to play around with. There’s also (I forgot to mention this anywhere, but it’s in [...]
