Downfall PSP Preview - Image 1 Downfall PSP Preview - Image 2 


Jamie Fuller from our forums, the same guy that has brought the homebrew scene great homebrew games like Planet Smash and SensitivePSP has today released a preview of his latest homebrew game to bring to the PSP, and it goes by the name of Downfall. If you ever remember playing this game as a kid (or as an adult!) you'll know that it is quite fun and pretty addictive.

The object of the game is to move one of the cogs around once per turn and then let the other person have a go, with the aim of the game being to get your counters to the bottom of the "board" before the second player does. But every time you move your cogs, they move on the other player's side too! You control the 'cogs' by moving the cursor over them with the analogue stick and pressing 'Cross' to turn anti-clockwise and pressing 'Circle' to turn clockwise.

Now this is just a preview, and that's simply because Jamie is unsure whether anybody is interested in the game. He started it when wanting to create a 2 player game with a chat client built in, and thought this would be ideal, but after completing the GFX to an excellent standard as you can see by the screenshots and the basic gameplay, Jamie is unsure whether to continue with this project. It includes a chat component and an MP3 player so you'll never get bored whilst waiting to play your opponent once it's finished, but the networking for two players has not been completed yet, so don't go grabbing your friends PSP to play just yet.

You can find the file below, so if you want Jamie Fuller to continue developing this game give this article lots of jumps and download the file as well as discussing this release directly with Jamie in our forums.

I loved this game since the first time I played it, and on the PSP, I can enjoy it on the go. Keep on developing man. With all the features listed, it should be a HUGE hit.
