RPPHS is a top down shooter similar to games like Geometry Wars. It is a simple twin stick shooter with slots for ten high scores and several settings that can be changed/saved.

You can also enter your initials for the offline leaderboards, customize your crosshair, and mess with the super-cool settings menu.

Installation

Install the VPK on your homebrew enabled PS Vita or PS TV.

Theme Tutorial

Download the default theme zip file from images/theme/default.zip and unzip it somewhere on your PC. This contains almost everything you'll need to create a custom theme.

• Rename the default folder to the name of your theme.
• Replace the images with images for your theme (Images need to have the same names and dimensions as the ones being replaced).
• Edit the config.txt file within your themes folder.

The config.txt file contains the colors for in-game objects. It is formatted like so:

mainTextColor
{
  Red:255
  Green:0
  blue:0
}

The first line is the variable name and the lines inside the are the values that will be assigned to that variables color values. Your themes config.txt file MUST follow this format and copying the original version and only modifing the color values is strongly suggested.

• Compress your theme folder.
• Transfer the zip file containing the theme to the vita and unzip the contents to ux0:/data/RPPHS/theme/"Theme-name"/.
• Finally, edit the file located at ux0:/data/RPPHS/themes.txt and add the name of your theme to the bottom of the file.
