Up for some more minigame madness for your Sony PlayStation Portable? I'll take that as a yes. Here to serve up a fine appetizer of his latest project is Sony PlayStation Portable homebrew developer Slasher, with the alpha build of EatEm. Described by some as a combination of Snake and fl0w, this is one homebrew game you should take a look at.

It was way back August of last year when altunozara released his Pacman-based homebrew project - GO! GO! GO!. Back then, the game's objective was to collect as many "items" as you can by making your character go over them. It was kinda cool at first, but with no real AI and very limited gameplay, the game gets boring after a few tries. To battle that, altunozara did what every devoted dev would - tweaked on the game some more to boost its playability.

Now what we have here isn't the actual update of the same game, rather it's a different mode, or as the creator called it the "new mode of GO GO GO!!! called creative mode." According to altuna, he made this one so that we could have something to play with while he's working on the normal mode. How does one actually use it? Altunazara explains it best in saying:

In creative mode there is 1 player you controll it to make the screen a nice creative picture...so far square triangle circle and cross all make different colours! when your standing on something you dotn eat it but when you click a button you change its colour depending on what colour you chose!

There you have it, try being a Picasso with this one. It's coded in Lua so you'll need to have Lua Player installed before you could have it running on your PSP. Hey, it wouldn't hurt to give this game a go. It's no Callisto, but it sure beats playing around with stressballs.

Altunozara, from our forums, has released his first Lua game entitled - GO GO GO! Now, when I downloaded this game, I had no idea what I was getting into or what the goal of the game was. I re-read the thread's post and found that the game doesn't really have a goal right now (frown came down upon my face). The goal of this goals game is to collect all the little circles (almost like Pacman). However, there's no AI - only a second human player in which you can play against (you take the D-pad controls, and your opponent takes the face buttons).

As you go along the level, you will rack up points for each circle you collect - it accumulates the 2nd players score into yours as well. So, with no real "vs" system in place, the current goal of the game is to clear the level of these circles - but try to be creative, otherwise it won't be as fun. You could also be like me, and try to find all the errors and bugs that are in the game as the author stated there were a few.

This is indeed a beta of a game, but it shows excellent potential for a good game. After Altunozara gets all the bugs and errors out of the game - I think we can enjoy it even more. It shows a promising concept with a Pacman-like feel to it without the annoying mazes. If AI is implanted and the scores are kept separate, this game would find a home on my PSP.
