Wolfenstein 3d Alpha DS release - Image 1Lazyone has just announced that an alpha version of the Wolfenstein 3D port for the DS is already out. This newest build has quite a few improvements that have been added to it. In addition to this, the developer gave word on some of the enhancements planned for the future.

The added new features include sound (no music), saving, and a status bar on bottom screen. Lazyone also said that this update was also compiled with the latest libfat which means that it should now work with most if not all DLDI devices. Pretty nifty if you ask us.

Be careful about upgrading your Wolf3d binary though since saving is broken between builds and causes the game to crash. The developer also gave word that if you are experiencing a few graphic errors, you should try the binary fix build which should correct it.

Since the game doesn't come with a readme file, here are the controls and installation instructions according to the post on Lazyone's site:

Keys:

Turn left: DPAD Left
Turn right: DPAD Right
Forward: DPAD Up
Backward: DPAD Down
Strafe Left: L Shoulder
Strafe Right: R Shoulder
Shoot: A
Use: B
Next Weapon: X
Run: Y

Installation Instructions:

Copy the wolf3d folder into the root of your media card, run.

The plans for the next build are pretty exciting as well and include adding music, a build for registered versions and Spear of Destiny, access to the configuration menu, and further sound enhancement. All in all a pretty solid effort by Lazyone and one that fans of this classic game will appreciate.

Our thanks go out to Lazyone for sending this in!
