"Blox"
made by V@ughn, but you guys know me as bloodles ;)

Blox is an addictive 2d homebrew game for psp programmed by V@ughn using oslib.
This homebrew is almost complete. The last version I plan on releasing will be version 10.0!!!

In Blox, your the goal is to keep your player alive for as long as
possible by collecting upgrades and earning money to buy new outfits
and better weapons. DESTROY THE MIGHTY MONSTER PRAXUS!!!!

Classic mode:
----------------
-normal game play, battle enemy blocks and upgrade your character to survive. The way Blox SHOULD be played!

Survival mode:
-----------------
-an endless amount of enemies are spawned... fight until you die!

Boss mode:
----------------
-need I even say it? Instead of fighting a mix of bosses and enemy blocks, fight only waves of bosses (and get horribly pummeled)



Compatibility:
----------------------
I have personally tested this on all current psp models (thanks to friends) and have tested many
different types of cfw. Please report if your psp is incompatible with this homebrew so I can fix it
-Game categories works perfectly with this homebrew however PIC1 apparently does not want to show up on ant TN_HEN (idk why and do not plan on fixing this)



















Leave a comment below and tell me what you guys think...

What other games have you made (if you have)?

[Rob S.]

Looks interesting.

Nice work, bloodles.


You would probably get more replies if users could read your post.

Many users prefer the default vB theme.

Wrapping text in white makes it a bit difficult to read:

Hey thanks casavult. If you are interested I have posted a thread allowing users to submit art to be used in the game. Check it out. Blox is still crashing so I don't think I will be releasing v4.0 tomorrow like I planned
