Homebrew [Release] Xump port for 3DS - Retroguru Team

[nop90]

​

Xump - The Final Run is a simple multi-platform puzzler by Retroguru. Initially released by Psilocybin Development in 2005 the game has been improved in almost every aspect you can imagine. New graphics, new levels, new music, new options, new everything...

Help Holger to clean up deserted space fields. As this is a very dangerous task for a human being a headbot named Xump will be the one who has to suffer.

Your main task is to clean all dissolving tiles on several single-screen levels by simply stepping on them, one by one. Few fields are secured with mines and need a double tap. Mines can be blown up when passing by or disarmed by Xump when staying on this specific field for a short moment. Certainly the mission sounds easier than it will be.

Great port, thanks nop90!

I found a small bug in the CIA version, the background music was not stopping exiting the game.

Now I fixed it and @Kojote uploaded the new version on the retroguru site.

If you use the CIA version, please download and instal it again. The 3dsx version doesn't need an update.

Tested on citra and can't see the problems you report (xump ha nothing on bottom screen, other games hve only the retroguru intro looping). Can you take a screenshot of it on citra or a picture from your 3ds?

Pressing the home button once halts the game for a short while, and when it comes back, the bottom screen refreshes to the boot splash. I want to assume that it is because you are doing nothing with the bottom screen that strange things popping up there. Same thing happens to some of the other homebrew (this is probably the issue that Cid2mizard is talking about)

- edit -
Hermes works as intended with the animated retroguru loop on the bottom screen.
Fruit'y also works as intended with v1.00.2 (@Cid2mizard : maybe you have an older version?)
Sqrxz4 (1.01), and Sqrxz2 (1.10) are also both fine for me.

All version dl yesterday... for Xump with home button Ingame too.

 

[nop90]

For xump it's because (for some strange reason) the version uploaded hat the bottom screen disabled, soi after pausing the game with the home button, the framebuffer is not refreshed and it shows garbage. Obwiously this happens only with the cia build,because the 3dsx can't be paused this way.

I'll fix it tonight.

The other games should be fine.

Thank you for reporting this.
