In need of a cool homebrew game for PSP? You might want to check out Turrican, which was developed by Arguru. The game is a cross between the Metroid and Turrican games that were first released during the late 80's and early 90's, wherein you battle different kinds of alien beings, explore the terrain, and get power-ups along the way.

The graphics and gameplay are great, as Arguru made lots of changes from the alpha version. Some modifications include:

Weather effects system (map opcodes: r0 = no rain, r1 = rain, r2 = snow).
Proper intro/title sequence.
Proper game over sequence.
Alien mini-spiders / Eggs (spider breed) enemies.
"Walker" enemies.
Big / small spike ball enemies.
Boss system (only one boss defined 'storm gauntlet', map opcode : 'f0'). Don't use it yet.
Level wraps nearly finished.

We've been playing this game since we got it, and it's one really cool game. So, below are some screenshots we took from the Turrican to let you know we aren't kidding at all. But then again, you'd really have to play the game's demo to know what we're talking about. Have fun!

� Don't work

Game doesn't work or is it because of the custom firmware?
