Marshmallow Duel DS is a standalone 2-player game built for the Nintendo DS console, based on the original Marshmallow Duel. The entire game engine was created from scratch, using the PALib DS development library.

It offers simple gameplay mechanics in a style similar to Super Smash Bros and is fully configurable through a plethora of options. The game engine is designed to manage low-level sprite routines efficiently and easily, leaving the higher-level game logic abstracted into its own tier of classes. The source code is released publicly under the GPL which is also available from the official website.

Marshmallow Duel DS was presented at Datel's Design a Game Competition.

Features

  • All the 2-player dueling fun and excitement of the original.
  • 18 Fantastic weapons: Skull, 1000V, invisibility, mine, gun, TNT, boots, grenade, puck, parachut, hook, warp, net, shield, magnet, boomerang, weasel and dunce hat.
  • Finally, weapon selection and kill limit settings.
  • Character customisation and saving.
  • The wonderous ability to pause the action.
  • Exhaustive statistics tracking and saving system.
  • Stylus control for the main menu, pickups selection menu and character menu.
  • Configurable game options such as the number of pickups onscreen at a time, use of the bottom screen to show the pickups before they spawn, the number of rounds to play, and 'death while dancing'.

User guide
