DStrivia using DSLua
There’s a lot to know about trivia games. First, they can be deceptively simple. Second, they’re addictive. Third, they’re perfect as brain exercises on a regular basis. And if played on the DS, it’s just a matter of the right stylus pinpointing on the screen to discover just how competitive you are.
If Jeremysr would engage into further development of his DStrivia using DSLua, he’d probably make some bucks out of it. From here though, it’s initially a simple game that reads questions from a file. Then, it gives you a hint (how many letters and words there are in the answer) and lets you type in what you think is the answer using an on-screen touch-screen keyboard.
The game, according to Jeremysr, allows players to add and edit their questions, so it does give enough freedom to other homebrew gamers (something akin to OpenSource development). Check out the instructions at the how_to_make_questions.txt inside the download file.
If you have a CF card, the game comes with a CF version that lets you put your question file right into the directory without having to use DSLua. The step by step process goes as follows:
- Put all files included in this zip file onto your CF card, into the same directory. (DSLua.nds/DSLua.ds.gba/DSLua.sc.nds can go into a different directory if you want.)
- Run DSLua.nds or DSLua.ds.gba or DSLua.sc.nds depending on what hardware you’re using. Then select “CF” and press A. Then go to whatever directory you put DStrivia in, select “-trivia.lua” from the list and press A.
- Press X to begin right away using the QUESTIONS.TRIV question file or else type in another file that is in there.
