Hello Everyone,
I've released the Final version of my game entered into the PxP Coding Competition. I would like to make sure that my buddy Raptor_GX2 gets full credit for all the artwork done, he is an amazing artist.

For those that haven't tried out the initial release, this game has the same structure as a breakout game but with a twist. You can control the ball while it is in the air, fight against 2 bosses, and unlock 2 minigames.

Download Here

Bugfix Report
Carelessly forgot to load an image that announced that the bonus game was still locked.
Dowload This File if you have already downloaded the game
and replace the existing index.lua. THE DOWNLOAD LINK HAS THE CORRECTED VERSION AS OF 8:05PM PST

Updates:

1) Memory management optimized. The game should be much more stable when switching between game modes.
2) All cutscenes are complete including the ending sequence.
3) Overall polishing of the graphics.
4) D-Pad is now enabled in all game modes, including the second bonus game.

Screens:

**slicer4ever** · 03-11-2007, 06:53 PM

nice=-) dling now this can be put on my ms

**Yongobongo** · 03-11-2007, 06:57 PM

Very nice job, i enjoyed first release

**Merick** · 03-11-2007, 07:21 PM

hmm... it crashes on me when I try to load either of the minigames:

index.lua:1636: bad argument #2 to 'blit' (Image expected, got nil)

Otherwise, the main game works just fine.

**KleptoOne** · 03-11-2007, 08:06 PM

Bug Fixed, Forgot to load a new image, I feel so stupid.

The Download link is now correct, if you have already downloaded the new version then download the updated index.lua from the first post and copy over the old one on your memory stick.

Sorry about that guys:-(

**Merick** · 03-11-2007, 08:47 PM

yeah that did it, great game

**nights** · 03-11-2007, 10:17 PM

This game is really fun. And I love the cutscenes!

Klepto you want any QJ points?

**Joel Van** · 03-12-2007, 12:05 AM

lol, sure, although all that I care about is that you liked the game.

Thanks for the positive feedback. Raptor and I are currently working on another game that will be a series of mini games that are a fan tribute to Tenacious D. You might have to give us a couple months though as we have grand ideas but it's going to take some time to develop.

**Grimfate126** · 03-12-2007, 11:11 AM

if only all homebrew games were like this.

great job on this!

**Blackbelttcon** · 03-12-2007, 11:47 AM

Dude this looks awsome, you should try to make one with a eboot.

**Mr305** · 03-12-2007, 12:05 PM

This should be enough to demonstrate the capab's of LUA!
Excellence in every portion of the game...

Minor: But the only problem is the ball is so tiny yet moves fast especially @ level 4... So had to somehow unlock all 15 levels!

neutrOpik · 03-12-2007, 03:25 PM

Very nice homebrew..

tank's for this Up!

Good continuity!
