Xadrez: Homebrew 3D chess game for the PSP

Posted Aug 23, 2007 at 09:30AM by Tim Y. Listed in: Homebrew Games Tags: Joao Bastos

PSP homebrew developer Joao Bastos has just announced the release of his very first full game, titled Xadrez. This app, still to be in its Beta version according to the file, is a 3D chess game for your PSP, and also carries "specular highlights, stencil reflections, color blending."

All standard chess rules appear to follow, with players able to select either the black or white factions. The game AI is very simple, and just reacts based on the pawn's current position. An easy-to-pick-up game for the guys who'd like a quick chess match or two on their handhelds to kill time. Enjoy the download, and wait up in case Joao Bastos makes plans to update Xadrez.

Re: >.<' (Unregistered) - 2007-08-23

» O.O

Why yes, that would be "teh secks".

» NICE!!!

As long as I've been playing pc based, I'm really glad to see a 3D portable version and this is really nice, looking forward to the next release.

Adding special moves menu would certainly enhance gameplay (Castling, En Pasante) and i guess an in-game music player would be a nice addition also. 2 player wi-fi would be awesome too.

Thanks Joao Bastos, GOOD JOB!!! :-)

» very good game

a couple of suggestions:
1.change the color of the background
2.add bg music
3.add an option 2 select user's mp3 file and play it in the bg during the match....
