Now, in case you’ve already picked up game pack #1, we’re letting you know about the release of the XtreamLua/Gx-MOD Lua contest 2007 finalist’s Game Pack #2, which features four more homebrews: Vortex Battle Arena Release 1, Elemental, and Morshock v0.1, and DestroyDust v0.5.

Left trigger: To draw

Player 2 (located on the right and having the green ball)
