Oh I was asking because I didn't update my copy in a long while.
I'm not sure if DSiWare titles even support updates. But yeah, pretty sure 2.2 is the only version release in North America. (2.4 for PAL regions)

You should both post videos of your programs by the way, for people who don't have Petit Computer. :P

I guess that might be a good idea... but then again, I just have a phone to take video with, which isn't optimal. I'll consider doing it, though. :P

Edit: Also just got this project up on the Petit Computer Wiki. http://petitcomputer.wikia.com/wiki/Steins;Gate_8-bit

Well, phones would be fine I guess. I have a Samsung i551 or something and it does a very decent job at taking pictures and videos (although sound is horrible).

I still wish that it was possible for people to play Petit Computer games without paying for the app, such as via a standalone freeware Petit Computer Player (which could play games, but not let people code). This severely limits people's audience.

Yea, that's true. 8 dollars really isn't that much though.

Well, you can also buy eShop cards in stores, but those are usually at minimum $20 if I remember correctly.

Yeah I think I saw those before. Aren't they only for one game in particular, though? (Kinda like how Xbox 360 has Call of Duty cards to download the game instead of buying the game disc).

Also, pre-paid credit cards have only been available over here for about one year now. Beforehand, they were near impossible to find. Besides, it would still be nice if Petit Computer was like Adobe Acrobat in the way that Adobe Reader is free but not Adobe Acrobat. Even better: Have it like Axe Parser, where you don't even need an extra app to play Petit Computer games.

It's time for Steins;Gate 8-bit Demo 2! Featuring everybody's favorite Assistant, Cristina!


As usual, more info and QR codes on the wiki page: http://petitcomputer.wikia.com/wiki/Steins;Gate_8-bit

Darn that is really nice indeed Calc84. By the way are you totally done with TI programming now that you moved to Petit Computer stuff? I am curious if that game would be feasible on the 84+C or Nspire CX?

Also, I wonder if Supersonic Ball would be feasible in Petit Computer?

Well, Petit Computer does have most of my attention right now, I suppose. But I have been considering a TI-84+CSE port of Steins;Gate 8-bit (and the Petit Computer version is laying the groundwork for that).

Edit: Also, Supersonic Ball would almost certainly be feasible. You can have access to two different tilemaps at once, plus up to 100 sprites (and bitmap graphics, but those probably aren't useful in this case).

Ah that's cool to hear. :D Also glad to hear that the language could possibly support such game. I was more concerned about the speed, though, with smooth scrolling, physics, etc.
