Nowell v1.02 (Cid2Mizard)

Changelog

1.02

  • Unofficial Christmas 2010 repackaged version 1.02 by Mr. Reaper
  • I fixed the crash that version 1.01 had when you selected "tutorial" on the start screen -- it was looking for a bmp file that didn't exist. I hex edited the elf file so it now looks for the jpg instead.
  • Then I re-compressed the background jpeg files and ogg files and reduced the size of this app by 15 meg! It now only takes about 10 meg on the SD card (before it was 25 meg).
  • And while I was repackaging everything into a nice zip file, I went ahead and improved the "tutorial" screen, slightly edited the victory screen (it said "loading"), and updated the meta.xml file.
  • I didn't have permission from anyone actually involved with the game to do any of this.
  • But I think it's a fun little drunken game anyway.... Merry Christmas!

1.01

  • Fix a bug with bullet rotation.

1.00

  • First release for drunken coder competition.
