As part of our Summer Coding Competition, HPNuts has released his first PSP homebrew game entitled - PSPSudoku. PSPSudoku is a PSP clone of the world's famous logic-based placement puzzles - Sudoku. Sudoku's goal is very simple - fill each box and line (horizontal and vertical) with the numbers 1-9. These numbers can not appear twice in the same box/region or line. This PSP clone does an excellent job of maintaining the rules to the dot.

PSPSudoku is coded in Lua, but does not require Lua Player to run. The developer, HPNuts, was very generous as to provide us with the stand-alone eboot files that do not require Lua Player. The game, when ran will display the basic Sudoku grid with various numbers already on it. You can turn of the helpful markings by navigating up and down with the analog nub. All in all, this is an excellent Sudoku clone with customizable skins as well! You can read more about the game and its rules in the readme file provided with the download. All of the entries for this competition will be released and a post detailing the voting procedure will be up soon. Good luck in the competition and a great job on the game!

now i dont have to run the lua version of sudoku whick was ok but sometimes froze, homebrew rocks!

**thought bubble** i wonder why all the sudoku homebrew games start in french and i have to manually change them to english...

LooEz, I forgot to change the language to English on my release, I'm a French developper which explains why. But I'm sure you can find easly the way to change it yourself. You can also add your own language if needed.
