Thanks to Dr. NEO‘s NeoFlash Spring Coding Contest 2008, the homebrew scene for both the Sony PlayStation Portable and the Nintendo DS is now blooming with life. 76 entries in just two months can’t get wrong – homebrew is here to stay.
But as with any competition, only the diamonds in the rough must emerge. Today, Dr. Neo announces the winners for this year’s competition.
Dominating the Sony PSP homebrew applications category is dev bumuckl‘s Dow! version 0.2 which allows you to code homebrew on the go. This, in itself, is a testament to the contest’s desire to put a premium on homebrew development. Bugz featured the most complete game experience among the rest with its 17 levels and LocoRoco-like graphics.
On the other hand, the Nintendo DS division got a treat with the FAT Player Mikmod version 3 application and the LoneWolfDS – Flight From The Dark game. Below is a complete list of the cream of the crop.
