Art has released a modified version of Map this, heres the full details:
Hi Guys,
Here is a slightly modified Deniska's MapThis! 0.5.20.
First of all, this package is only the replacement EBOOT.PBP file.
Download the full program with support files here: http://deniska.dcemu.co.uk/mapthis-0...sps-79825.html
Then you can use this by swapping out the EBOOT.PBP file with that provided in the package attached via comments:
The modified version is the 1.00/1.50 version.
Modifications by Art are as follows:
- Startup Splashscreen is not shown.
- Map named "_Default" is always auto loaded at startup reguardless of config setting.
- HOME button can be used to exit.
The startup map option appeared to me to be broken, so the auto load for this version is always on, it is not optional, so make sure you name your most often used map to "_Default", then you can select other maps later as usual with the SELECT button. Lastly, it's always annoyed me that the HOME button has never worked. The HOME button will instantly exit.
This is a PSP adaptation of classic Amiga/DOS platformer by Microids (http://www.microids.com).

GAMEPLAY
-------
The player controls 'Nicky', a little boy who embarks on an adventure through a fantastical land to
find an elixir to save his grandfather from a spell cast on him by the evil sorceress Zoldrane.
Nicky can walk, jump, and in an original theme can throw apple cores to defend himself against
the monsters occupying the levels. Aside from throwing apple cores, the player can pick up other
items to throw at enemies such as bouncy balls and logs. The logs can also be used to build bridges
at certain parts of the levels.
Nicky is able to jump on enemies to defeat them, which is often more difficult but lets the
monsters drop point items to collect. When jumped on, some enemies such as giant snails will
split into multiple smaller versions of themselves.
The game consists of 8 levels based on 4 separate themes including a swamp, dark forest and a castle.
Although, save-game / level codes are currently not implemented, there are "secret" button combos,
which enable a player to jump to next level and get bombs as well as other goodies.

GAMEPLAY

The sequel to Nicky Boom; this time Nicky must find out who has been removing ladders and
blocking off caves in his homeland. The gameplay is essentially platform, with multi-directional
maze-like levels. Beating the obstructions requires occasional brainwork – hidden ladders
are easy enough to uncover, and there are lots of hidden sections to look for. The levels are
colourful, and the game has a cute look making it appear suited to younger players. Mirrors are
placed around the levels, which transport you to a random place.
Although, save-game / level codes are currently not implemented, there are "secret" button combos,
which enable a player to jump to next level and get bombs as well as other goodies.
This is a PSP adaptation of classic side-scrolling action adventure game for DOS,
made by Century Interactive and published by BMG in 1995.

You're a pilot of a B-17 bomber in 2nd World War. After you're shot down by German fighters,
you crash land through some sort of time hole in a strange world, where both dinosaurs and humans
live. The first thing you have to do is save a princess; she's your companion throughout the game.
The game itself is a mixture of jump and run and adventure; on most screens you have to think and
watch first before you do anything.

sdlBasic is a small, efficient multiplatform basic interpreter originally created by Roberto Viola in 2002.
Its core is based on wxBasic and syntax, inspired by AMOS, is easy to learn by beginners http://www.sdlbasic.altervista.org contains the reference guides language overview, comand syntax, examples and
additional tools and resources, required for development.
Installation
The interpreter only works on custom PSP 3.XX firmwares.
Copy sdlBasic folder to ms:/PSP/GAME (or ms:/PSP/GAME3XX where XX is your custom firmware's subversion.
Using the interpreter
sdlBasic program(s) should be saved in [program_name].sdlbas file and placed in sdlBasic folder, together with EBOOT.PBP file and
fonts directory. Of course, sdlBasic folder can be renamed, and EBOOT icon/background can be replaced with a number of tools.
If only one .sdlbas file is detected in the folder, the interpreter immediately runs it. Over wise the program selection screen is displayed.
