While hunting whales on the open seas isn’t an ecologically or socially accepted practice, blasting them using nuclear warheads on the virtual handheld platform seems safe enough. This is the premise developer Mr. X 256 had for the latest homebrew game on the PlayStation Portable.

The beta release of Nuke the Whales plays on the theme of a simple top down shooter whose aim is to drop irradiated warheads on the titular creatures. This Lua-based game is in its initial stages so far and features an endless level of whale exterminating with a running tally of points to keep track of your kills.

Nuke the Whales has been tested on both the PSP Phat and PSP Slim, running on custom firmware 3.71 M33. Hopefully, the developer will be able to create a more refined version of the game in future updates.

For more details on how to install the program into you handheld, you can take a look at the Readme.txt file bundled with the homebrew game. You can also discuss this game with the author by visiting QJ.NET’s PSP Development forum, accessible through the link below.
