be2003’s Yeti3D PSP port

Homebrew coder be2003 has just announced the recent release of the PSP port of Yeti3D. In case you guys are wondering what this application is, Yeti3D is a 3D engine originally built by Derek Evans for the Game Boy Advance back in 2003.

Be2003 notes is that this version isn't dependent on SDL - it's a pure PSP port. Here's a glimpse of the engine's technical notes (for the sake of the curious devs):

• The current viewport is 120x80 pixels, 15bit.
• All textures are 64x64 8bit.
• Textures are converted to 15bit via a pre-calculated lighting LUT.
• Polygons can be any convex shape. Only squares are currently used.
• Each vertex is described as X, Y, Z, U, V and brightness.
• The renderer uses 24:8 fixed point maths.
• Polygons are clipped in 3D space using 45 degree planes. Distance to plane  calculations therefore use only additions and subtractions.
• Polygon edges are clipped using one divide and 6 multiplies.
• 4 clipping planes are used. No front plane is required. No back plane is used.
• No per-span clipping is used. Fixed point errors are hidden offscreen.
  

Full technical notes, installation/usage details, and contact addresses are available in the file README - we strongly advise would-be users to check those out before using this application. There's also the matter of the bundled GNU license, which guys here will need to read as well.
