DS homebrew announcements > Bitsweeper! - Release 2

#155443 - Izhido - Tue Apr 29, 2008 5:39 pm

A new version of Bitsweeper! has been released.

Changes include the following:

- Built using devkitARM r23 (lots of improvements in the code)

- Added the much-needed DLDI support for saving scores in your card. If no media is present, an existing slot-2 card can be used too to save best scores. (This was already present in release 1, but, because of a hideous bug in the code, it didn't work as expected.)

- Board cells are truly random now thanks to improvements in current libnds.

- Many, many bugs fixed! As of this release, there are no known bugs in the game.

- Slight, but noticeable, visual improvements. If you've seen the first release, they will be immediately apparent.

The game can be downloaded from the (new) site:

http://dsotaku.drunkencoders.com/

Big thanks to dovoto for providing the web hosting for this project!

Hm... that's strange... could you try it again?

I consulted with various people here, and they say they could get into the site just fine.

In any case, you can get the binary straight from here:

I took a peek at the source code and the following made me smile, so I thought I would share. Maybe a few more decimal could be added, you know, to improve the accuracy...

Code:
   Pi = 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028841971693993751058209749445923078164062862089986280348253421170679;

its a minor problem really

the site's link uses this url:

Code:
http://dsotaku.drunkencoders.com/Bitsweeper%5CBitsweeper.zip

most likely because the url was typed as
Code:
http://dsotaku.drunkencoders.com/Bitsweeper\Bitsweeper.zip



it should be:

Code:

My most sincere apologies. I could swear I corrected it... looks like I didnt. It is fixed now. Thanks for your patience!
