Hai thar

So this is my fanmake of [adultswim]'s Robot Unicorn Attack.

It far from perfect, but chyeehhhhh

http://filetrip.net/f24876-RUADS-1-0.html

rambling:
I remember seeing someone request this a while back. At first i thought it'd be pretty easy and simple to make. Oh i was so so wrong.
I had never used libnds before and knew nothing about ds hardware, except that it had 4mb of RAM.
Libnds documentation was a little anorexic for me, even with the examples, but luckily the gbatemp community was very responsive when i requested help. thanks guys =]
I ran into so many obstacles i considered rage quitting multiple times. Not sure how i even managed to get it to where it is atm.
Still feels incomplete, but the code feels so fragile, i don't really want to make anymore changes ;_;

I've learn a lot from this project; namely, don't waste system resources around or you'll be screwed.

If people are interested, i'll probably release the source code to this later.
Although... the code is very very bad. Its rushed and is a horrible combination of C and C++ practices (eg fully public classes, because it was first a struct, but then i added functions and constructors)

Nice. Is this the final version or do you plan to release an update?
I noticed that sometimes it allows you to run/jump off air as if it was a ledge.

Will try this asap.

Edit:
It's quite nice already!
The sprites should be a bit more 'moving', and the jumping could be less 'floating', but other than that good job!

I probably wont be adding anything new, but might release a few more versions as i fix bugs/cleanup code. not too sure at the moment.
