BrickFall is a fast pace arcade game inspired by Falldown for the NDS.

It was submitted to the NEO Summer Coding Compo 2007 (NDS Game) and the GBA-NDS First Coding Competition (3rd place).

Features

  • 3 controls styles.
  • Wifi Leaderboard.
  • MP3 support.

Installation

Download and extract file.

Copy the brickfall folder to the root of your card.

DLDI patch brickfall.nds file for your card.

Note: Game will freeze after motion card splash screen if brickfall directory not on root.

User guide

You guide a square through a maze of platforms without letting it hit the top of the screen. If it hits the top you lose. Your score is generated on how long you manage to survive. Unlike Falldown, this game has powerups. These powerups can help you or go against you so be careful as it is completely random.

The objective is to keep falling down and avoid reaching the top. If your character touches the top of the screen you die.

Note that you can change the guy on the main menu.

WiFi LeaderBoard

When you lose you have the option to upload your score to an online leaderboard.

To use, make sure that WiFi settings are set up correctly and be sure to be with in range of a wireless router of some sort.

MP3's

In this version you are able to listen to your own mp3's while playing. For this to work correctly you need to make sure your mp3's follow this format and enable function in options menu.

Converted to Mono format (less than 2.7 megabytes and name correctly). The name must follow this format:

song(whatever number).mp3

Make sure folder is completely empty before adding songs.

Place in /brickfall/mp3/ folder.

Converters can be found here and here.

Controls

This game can be played with control keys, Stylus or Motion card (enable in options menu).

Menu:

Up/Down/X/B - Go up and down

A/Left - Select highlighted option

Stylus - Navigate

In game:

Left/Right/Y/A - Move character left/right

L/R/Start - Pause game

Stylus - Drag to move character
