DS homebrew announcements > Two more board games

Hi there.

I want to announce my first two DS projects.

The first is a port of a game called Gnome Quod. It is similar to Connect Four only that you are trying to draw the corners of a square instead of a row. The goal of the port was to add a DS-friendly interface while keeping the (quite addicting) game mechanics. You'll find the binary, source and screenshots at quod.23inch.de. I tested it with no$gba and DeSmuME.

The second game is a variation of KJumpingCube. I wanted to play around with tiles so I figured, I'd try to use triangles instead of squares. The result is a completely different game that is still fun to play. You'll find the binary, source and a screenshot at jump.23inch.de. It works with no$gba but not in DeSmuME, which seems to have a problem with the module I used for background music.

Both games are most fun when played with more than one person though they have built-in AI, too.

So let me know, what you think. I just started playing around with the DS and am always happy to get some feedback.

So long,
veubeke

Thank you all. Great to hear that someone likes those games. I'm already working on my next project but it will be slightly more complex so it might take a while.
