Umm, Panic Paradyz is pretty damn nice. Zero Gravity is good but, it was under development for years, and it was on the computer etc. The counter strike game is pretty good, still needs work though. Dungeons is good. Then again the PSP is a lame console for shooters with only one analogue... Vertex Origins looks promising but they arent releasing it as far as i can tell.

Well in that case I'd have to say NIGashootuh, it's really original and fun too.

Sounds good, and I was thinking the same about Zero Gravity too, A_Nub.  Do you guys know if there are any good games out there (as far as functionality goes) with source. I am interested on how the code is structured in larger projects that span out more than a handful of source files. My project, Gravija, is about 12 source files, and that doesn't include all the engine source code which is like 30 files itself, and growning (as soon as I get some time)!  |

Number of files is irrelevant really, amount of code is more important.
12 files with 100 lines in each is just like 1 main.c with 1200 lines in it (except that the compiler will generally optimise the 1200 line main.c better).
Also depends on how suited your engine is to what you're doing.
You're welcome to view the source, privately, of the game I'm making to test the 2D aspect of my engine mate - just let me know.

Number of files is irrelevant really, amount of code is more important. Yeah, I thought some one would say that. All my source files are a couple hundred lines with the execption of the main module which is REALLY stripped down to promote program flow... Anyway, does anyone know where I can find some source for a game. I've been searching these forums, but with no luck. I should be over at qj.net, but I'm pretty sure I'd have to ask for the source seeing that I haven't seen hardly any source openly available. If you guys think up a good game, I'll track down the dev who programmed it, and ask them for the source. I haven't played any PSP Homebrew Games, so I don't really know, and there's a lot for me to do right now... |

ThrottleX is the best I've played, it's like Trackmania, except more challenge based. The physics are quite impressive and it's in full 3D. It also comes with a full editor and online play. Well worth a look.
Janua's probably the most interesting homebrew game on the system (you draw platforms and the like to help your character to progress through the level), although it really belongs on the DS.

Yeah, that's the game I thought of when I wrote the post. I didn't know if there was a game out there that topped it though. The 3D editor, and other features such as online play really make the game awesome. I would like to see the source to that game. I wonder if I can get a hold of it...
