Rukia has released a new PSP brawler for everyone to enjoy, and it's based on the Saving Ichigo game that we recently covered. In this game, known as Saving Ichigo: Brawler v0.1, you can dispense with the storyline and focus on all-out fighting goodness using characters from numerous animated shows, such as "Bleach" and "Naruto".

In this case, the cast can constantly expand depending on the number of sprite-based characters you can make, but the current build has Goku, Ichigo, Sasuke, Renji, and Rukia for use. As an added bonus, you can also engage in war on the QJ Forums, as you can see in the above screenshot.

Below are the controls for the game, because you'll definitely need them:

• X= Attack1 (in game) pick options(in menus)
• O= Block
• Square= Attack2
• Triangle= Jump
• R= Special (in game) advance pass first menu (out of game)

In any case, give it a try for yourself and see how you like it. Enjoy!

It looks like someone out there in internet-land really loves Rukia Kuchiki from the animated series "Bleach". Over on our forums, Rukia completed what appears to be the first part of a Rukia Kuchiki-based fighting homebrew game, called Saving Ichigo Pt. 1.

In Saving Ichigo Pt. 1, Rukia is tasked with finding out where Ichigo went off to. Along the way, she meets other characters from different anime series, such as Sasuke from "Naruto" and Goku from "Dragon Ball Z", having to fight them to advance the storyline in the game.

Here are the game controls:

• R= Advance through cutscenes
• X= Special Attack(Can use only when meter is full, or when she stops attack)
• O= Attack
• Square= Block
• Left and Right= move

Rukia, the game's developer, notes that there are only four levels though, so make each level count by thoroughly thrashing your foes with some Rukia-styled kung fu. Enjoy!
