DS homebrew: Fencing App

Whoa! A Nintendo DS app that lets you buy and sell stolen goods? Well no, not quite. Far from it really. Fencing App is a homebrew application geared towards fencers (the kind with the pointy swords), referees, directors and coaches. According to developer Minty, it’s basically an all-in-one timer, scorekeeper, cardcounter and coinflipper.

Whoa! A Nintendo DS app that lets you buy and sell stolen goods? Well no, not quite. Far from it really.

Fencing App is a homebrew application geared towards fencers (the kind with the pointy swords), referees, directors and coaches. According to developer Minty, it’s basically n all-in-one timer, scorekeeper, cardcounter and coinflipper.

Now I don’t personally know any fencers, but chances are there will be people out there who will get some great mileage out of an app like this. There’s no readme file, so here’s an explanation from Minty:

• First choose your mode:
• Pools-5 points, one period.
• DEs-15 points, three periods.
• free-unlimited points and periods.
• Press A to start the timer (it will beep so u know).
• Press it again to pause it.
• Record Fencers’ scores with L and R (when the timer is paused)
• If a fencer gets a card (for ex. Yellow) Then click on the yellow card in the touchscreen.
• Pressing Select Resets the time (You must do this when a period is finished).
• A triple beep will sound when a period is over.
• The number above the timer is the period you are in.
• When the bout is over a results screen will pop up and you may have each fencer sign
