IceRunner: Orange Edition
Here’s a cool little app for your DS. Homebrew developer freemaan came up with this IceRunner game originally for the DS Coding Compo back in 2006, which some other equally interesting titles have been competing in. This particular version is an offshoot, and has been redone to fit into the PAlib compo’s orange theme.
Now, getting back to our subject matter, the game is simple: move Santa Claus – at least we think it’s Santa – from point A to point B of the map while gathering as many packages as you can. You gain 1500 points for every package, while you lose points the more time you spend running through the course.
As for the controls, according to freemaan:
- -LEFT/RIGHT: accelerate
- -Touch/UP/DOWN: move up/down (I recommend to control it with the touch-screen)
- -START: pause
FREEMAAN also makes mention of a highscore website for the more competitive souls out there. The site address is accessible in the README, along with some extra details you may want to go through before installing the brew. Enjoy!
