Compatibility

Tested on:

R4 Pro (firmware 1.51)
SuperCard DSONEi (firmware 3.0)

Also tested on iDeaS.

Known issues

Cannot use cheats, because there's no keyboard to type in the codes.

Occasional guru meditation crashes during gameplay.

No networking support.

Changelog

Version 3

  • Redesigned the bottom screen (based on a mockup by ExeterV) in single-player Arcade and Full Game modes.
  • Improved stability and performance.
  • Fixed a control mapping issue; you should now be able to properly map all buttons to controls.
  • Improved music playback (thanks to moi, Renard). Some of the .WAV files have been modified for this; please download the complete package instead of just the .NDS file.

Version 0.2

  • Fixed a bug that was corrupting save games, causing a crash when you tried to load the game.
  • Removed the horizontal scaling in most places, to make the text easier to read. On some screens you may need to scroll slightly left or right; use the L and R buttons for this. If you prefer the old scaled mode, you can toggle this feature on the OpenTyrian menu.
  • Added menu options to start Super Arcade mode or Destruct, from the OpenTyrian menu.

Credits

Many thanks to the OpenTyrian team for all their hard work.
