NeoFlash Spring Coding Competition 07: NDS Sports

 

It’s time for another DS entry to the NeoFlash Spring Coding Competition 07, and as you can tell by previous entries, coding competitions do produce some good end products, and NDS Sports is no different. This homebrew game from Davgav is a “tribute” to Wii Sports, and currently includes two of the sports included in the Wii game: Bowling and Tennis.

Of course, we don’t have the benefit of a Wiimote adaptor when playing on Nintendo‘s portable console, but Davgav has tried his best to emulate the movements using the touch screen. A little word of advice from us: it works a lot better if you use the stylus and not your finger which seems to be something commonly-used by narrow-fingered DS gamers nowadays. Here’s how to play:

Tennis

• Use the touchscreen.
• If you move the pen slowly you move the racket.
• If you want to swing the racket move it faster or click in the screen.
• Your Mii will move automatic to the ball, so swing in time.
• You have to do three full points to win.

Bowling

• Use the touchscreen.
• First grab the ball touching the touchscreen whit the pen.
• Then move it to the top screen to launch it.
• When it says how much pins get down you can launch the ball.

Stay tuned to QJ as we’ll have all the latest on the Neoflash Coding Competition 07 as it comes in.
