Kosmodrones v1.01 - Image 1


PSP homebrew developer Abhoth just announced that Kosmodrones is up and ready for download. We've heard about the game a few days ago, which offered much promise as a side-scrolling shooter that took cues from Amiga classics Turboraketti and Gravity Force.

Abhoth did mention that the game will be out soon, but we're more than glad that it's already here. Looking at the trailers alone would tell you that the team members behind Kosmodrones spent time on it. The game itself is a nice ride.

You'll get two folders from the download, but feel free to drop them down both to the Game 150 folder. For those too excited to check out the controls, here's what you need to know:
  • X - thrust
  • Analog nub - rotate ship
  • Right shoulder button - fire single bullet
  • Left shoulder button - hold in to charge a burst of bullets.
  • Square - drop explosive
  • Triangle - detonate explosive
  • Start - Pause/Restart/Return to main menu
As usual, spending sometime with the Readme file can pay off in spades. Don't forget to browse through it, especially if you want to know how to upload scores or download race recordings.

my thumb hurts from playing this too much. I tend to press X way too hard. As a reward though, I'm currently at least Top 6 in all race tracks. The name that is displayed on the highscore table is your PSP nickname, so be sure to change it to whatever you want before uploading.


seriously though, I cant touch the tip of my thumb nail without pain.

I thought that this game was pretty decent and had fun playing it for awhile. The graphics are pretty good and the gameplay was smooth enough. However, since I do not always have access to an internet connection and prefer to practice a bit before playing against other people, I would like to see a 1 player mode in a future version of this game that actually has enemy ships (and a decent AI) to race and fight against.
