In my first quick test I didn't notice that the controls can be totally customized... sorry for the oversight!

Thought this would burn right on the sd card? Won't open though it's icon is on the apps screen. Guess I need to delve internally.

I put the opk in the "apps" folder of my external SD-card and the game works perfectly...

PS: remember that this game uses the hardware downscaling, so the latest firmware is required (2014-08-20).

Yes it was something about the scaling 640x480 and required a firmware/dingux update. All works well now.I don't quite comprehend why exactly this game required such ??

Thanks for all your advise.


Cheers!
