Directions


In our humble opinion, we think that people in the Graphic Design business who own PSP will find this application very useful. Say you're a graphic artist, and you make a living out of designing brochures and making custom fonts and stuff like that. If you've got a quick client meeting at a Starbucks somewhere and all you have to do is discuss with them the font you just made, no need to bring a laptop with you - all you have to do is reach for your PSP, fire up this App and show them the font you just made.

LuaFont lets you use your PSP to view TTF Files. Developer JBird says that this App of his is based off of Nevyn and Shines Code from Lowser.

Triple Triad v0.1 - Image 1 Triple Triad v0.1 - Image 2 


Months back, we featured homebrew ports of one of the famous games featured in PS1's Final Fantasy VIII- Triple Triad. Almost every gamer who got tickled with the Squall-Rinoa romantic tension knows this game, but for those who don't know what Triple Triad is and who Squall and Rinoa are, well here's a little refresher.

Triple Triad is a semi-complex card game wherein you'll have to obtain as many of the opponents cards as possible, using a number system. It can be quite strategic and from what other people who are FF lovers are saying, quite addictive.

So why the trip down memory lane? After Sakya and JBird gave their rendition of the card game in the PSP, now comes TheEmulatorGuy's turn. The good developer entered this WIP into the PSP3D Contest and so far have been getting good feedback. Since there are still a lot of room for improvement, it only features the capability to play against AI players using closed and random rules - for now.

TheEmulatorGuy has big plans for this creation of his as he plans on adding two player support and all the rules featured in FFVIII. Aside from that, in the future, the game will be coupled with the RPG system that will enable players to trade and play with other characters. Things are indeed looking up for this game.

As always, you could comment about this Triple Triad port and who knows, you might help TheEmulatorGuy win the competition. Not only would he win goodies and other giveaways, but the ego-boost might make him slave harder for this one. Let's wait and see, for now, give the game a chance and try it out.

menu1buying cards


Some months back, Sakya made a homebrew version of one of the games featured in PlayStation's Final Fantasy VIII, "Triple Triad". After v0.1.1 though, the game fizzled out and up to now, no new version has come out. Well if you enjoyed that game, you might be interested in what JBird has for us today, his own Triple Triad 'brew for the PSP.

Also based on the card game from Final Fantasy VIII, Alpha Triple Triad v0.02 is still a work in progress but according to the people who's already tried it, it promises to be one awesome game. Right now, the core menu and the buying of cards for your deck is present and to place card on board, you press "Square".

Other features now included in this release:
  • Dual color menu (Black or White)
  • Music
  • Multiple Unlockable Card Backs (viewable in this Demo only)
  • Multiple Unlockable Game Boards
  • Two Save Files
  • Continue a game in play
There are a few known bugs with this current demo. Currently, cards will be unusable from NEW GAME and CONTINUE when you've already chosen them and then decided to back out. Since JBird is still working out the rules, gameplay is still in disarray - if anybody is willing to help him out, he'd love to hear from you. Future releases will also see 30 more cards available to play with; right now, JBird wasn't able to include them due to memory restrictions.

You can now have a go at Alpha Triple Triad v0.02. Let JBird know of any suggestions you might have by leaving a comment below. Enjoy!
