Nintendo DS homebrew developer asiekierka has a new build of WireWorld DS up for people to download, bringing it to version 1.0 RC1. For those who haven't heard of WireWorld DS, think of it as a portable version of The Game of Life, a computer program that simulates life according to a handful of simple, pre-determined rules.

This version is actually an update to a recently-made version 1.0, which happened to have a scanline/refresh bug in it. That being said, you can view the recent changes below.

1.0 RC1:

• ! The first released 1.0 version!
• + scrolling finished
• / scanline/refresh bug fixed
• * Moved to a 1D array (now some code uses one for instead of two, but some still needs 2D, and so i use a 1D-to-2D #define converter)
• $ something else maybe, i don't know

1.0 beta 0:

• ! Had this evil scanline/refresh bug.
• + scrolling half-done

The download files below contain the actual program, with a separate download for the source files of WireWorld DS v1.0 RC1. We suggest you fire it up on your DS, if only for the chance to simulate life.
