We're betting the moment you said more, you didn't actually think it would come this soon. Exactly one week ago, we announced the release of ThrottleX Mod v.2. And what do you know, PSPDemon comes out today with v.3! This time, PSPdemon adds orange glows and vibrant greens, aptly calling the release Neonic World Texture Pack.


ThrottleX v.3 is very easy to install. Just place the images into the resource folder and you are ready to go. The pack contains the following as well: Tiles, Car Skin, Tire Skin, Power Up images, Jet Gauge, Jet Particle and Numbers. Though the game is working a-ok already, minor issues with the sound files are sometimes encountered. According to PSPDemon, the next upgrade would take a while because of this.

ThrottleX v.3 is available for download below. Also, developer PSPdemon wishes to thank everyone for their support and would be delighted to hear comments and suggestions for future improvements.

PSPdemon has released ThrottleX Mod v.2. With this latest update, fans of the homebrew game will be delighted with several changes, which include: a new Editor interface look, a new Replay interface look, 3 new maps which are called TheClimb, LuckyJet, and MazeofTrouble. 

Those who'll find the MazeofTrouble quite difficult, the key is to know how to properly spin in mid air. With lots of practice, you'd find yourself thinking that the map is really easy. He also added that TheClimb and LuckyJet are two basic maps where proper way of jetting into corners and climbing can be mastered. These are the techniques needed to survive the MazeofTrouble.

PSPDemon also added more choices between car skins, wheel textures and tile textures. More changes will come later on in the mod. We can look forward to music, different sounds, more maps, and more choices between tile textures and wheel textures. They will come in packs later on, unless ThrottleX creator Anonymous Tipster comes out with a new version.

My car falls off the highway


From Anonymous Tipster comes one of the more sophisticated homebrew PSP games: ThrottleX 0.3. It supports online play and it comes with a level editor.


Improvements over the previous version are:

  • Round wheels

  • Level Editor (the download below contains the PDF tutorial)

  • Save/View Replays

  • 15 new levels

  • Downloadable levels

  • Online Infrastructure play

  • De-activated auto-reset (use Tri if you've failed)

  • Analog steering

  • Sound effects

  • Better camera

Basic Game Controls:

  • DPad/Analog to steer
  • Cross to accelerate
  • Circle to brake
  • Square to reverse
  • Triangle to reset

Anonymous Tipster included information about the online play feature of the game:

  • If you wish to host, or are having connection problems, you need to forward port 55555 TCP and 55556 UDP on your router.

  • Online play is currently only for 2 players due to lag, but once the engine is improved, I hope to add up to 16 players.

  • The server gets to set "upload" speed. The lower the value, the more times information is sent. Lower the value if the game seems to jump along. Raise the value for greater stability.

  • This online play is experimental so may not be 100% stable (not sure anything is 100% stable) but I hope you'll enjoy the addition.

You can read more about the level editor in the full version of this article (link below).

By the way, there are other ThrottleX versions over at our download site (links below).
