- I challenged myself to port my Ludum Dare 46 entry to as many consoles as I could during the jam's voting period. It went better than I expected and, by the end, the game was working on the PS Vita, Nintendo DS, Wii, GameCube, and PSP!

Hearing the Wii referred to as a retro console hurts my brain, feels like it came out yesterday, not 14 years ago.
same with the vita lol

for the DS port it would've been cool if you played on the bottom touch screen while the top screen was used for showing the platforms ahead of time
When I saw him using the top screen for platforms I expected the bottom screen to be UI
@@Starwort yeah, and when he said he would do a ds port I thought he would do the exact opposite.
@@SummonerArthur yeah me too lol
Would have been cool
Not unlike most DS games unfortunately. I feel a lot of games on the DS didn't do anything significant with the dual screen combo.

I think Mobile Gaming is perfectly fine for smaller games like this, but let’s not talk about things like PUBG.
It's on the DS
@@elbroken1093 its also fun to play with friends in school or smth and no need for a gaming pc to run it but i guess you never had any 😜
Definitely ran into that "decade old example" problem when porting an old college project to the Dreamcast. A lot of the Dreamcast dev scene is full of really dated examples. If you run into that again, what I'd suggest is just looking through the headers of the SDK. For the PSP audio problem, it might also have been a matter of streaming the audio file on-demand versus loading it in memory and playing it from there, but I haven't messed around with it myself. Could also be that the MP3 libraries might have been either a "proof of concept" library, or something intended only for using the PSP as some sort of MP3 player.
Calling these “retro” made me feel ancient (grew up on C64, Intellivision, NES, Genesis ....).
Next up -> developing games for ancient consoles.
When he said "even consoles that don't exist" I initially thought he was going to point Google Stadia.

A C++ game developer myself and I gotta say: you're completely mad! Great work! :D
My brain is here thinking... WHAT IF you had ONE codebase and a BUNCH of preprocessor macros and... *head explodes!*
Haha I'm glad you liked it! I thought about attempting to do that but I knew I would end up with a chaotic mess by the end of it...
I know right. Wouldn't it be crazy to not have to update all platforms when adding a tiny new feature like borders on the side of the screen, or screen wrapping?
Jk, I know how hard it gets to maintain such a big codebase, and he was probably doing it for the development knowledge, not the architecture of the project (which to be honest, is always desastrous in game jams).
I'm pretty sure you could just write a .h and .cpp file with functions for all the things that the libraries normally do and just use the correct one for the whichever console you're porting to.
@@ThePC007 You would usually make an abstraction layer (interface) for the platform specific APIs.

I tried the gamecube version and holy moly this would have sold well if it was made back then. Great game my guy!
gamecube games generally didnt sell well because nobody bought the console
@@why3994 Nintendo always have that ability to smack it with a hammer and still have it work perfectly fine tho!
@@why3994 Nobody bought the console? It sold over 21 million units. At that time it was a lot.
@@sleisrvods6959 Compared to the PS2's 155 million
@@why3994 Of course the console was sort of a flop. Now and back then but I personally think it is one of, if not, the best console to ever exist. The graphics and power of the console is amazing for back then and the games are just pure fun and true classics. Also, when you look into the development of the console and Luigi's mansion it just gets super interesting. And the Wii U is in some ways kind of similar, just is a whole lot worse. The games are great but it isn't that advanced, sold worse and development is a little less interesting, still very interesting tho.
Also. Please don't get started on the Virtual Boy. Oh god I hate the Virtual Boy. It's funny that they made fun of it in Luigi's mansion 3 though.
I’m only about two minutes in, and already loving the video, especially that you’re explaining the code, every time I watch these kind of coding videos they always explain what the code does, but never how the code works. So as someone who loves programming and coding, this video is already fantastic, please keep it up!!
This was super freaking cool man. I have always just left my games and programs as windows executables and been done with it. Never took the time to figure out how this would work. Pretty cool for you to cover it and also make it a fun video!
So this is what you were doing in all that time...
No wonder you took so long!
5 consoles? Amazing!
Thanks! I didn't think it would take this long originally, but I underestimated the struggle of editing a 15 minute video haha
The best things take the longest times :D

I was looking for this comment
I’ve played this on all the consoles and ur work is amazing good job!
This is a real damn cool adventure in and out! The PSP seemed like a pain but I love how the Wii turned out! Could learn a lot from these, I love videos like this, keep it up!!!
Haven't taken a look at the code, but I suspect the audio causes lag on PSP because you're loading the sound from the files to memory every time you play it?
Yeah probably
Mp3 is really expensive to decode, I wouldn't be surprised if it's actually just that slow. Would love to actually know what happened though.
radgeRayden Pretty sure that's the problem it was running into, the PSP used ATRAC as it's primary audio format I believe. So converting the sound files to ATRAC and replacing the MP3s should fix the lag with audio enabled.
@@Radgerayden-ist Slower than realtime decoding would nwould cause a buffer-under-run which would be very noticable clicks/gaps in the audio. Usually MP3 and other streaming formats use large buffers (=latency). Do these systems not support a RAW wave format like ADPCM or PCM? They are usually the fastest and have virtually no latency on playback.
Maybe he could have them always loaded

Was hoping for the Switch to get a port as well, but darn, this is actually really interesting.
@@GoldenretriverYT Oh, you're right, there is indeed a port. Though its last commit was 9 days ago, so I guess it is too recent to be included in the video. :/
@@ThePC007 how do you put it in the switch?
Anime Ramen I believe you would need to be running homebrew on your console. It’s interesting to do, but keep in mind it voids the warranty and can is against Nintendo’s TOS
@@conabe yeah but.......
too much work-
Wii u might be good too cuz it has touchscreen and buttons he should tell the player which control scheme to use buttons or touch screen if he did wii u port
Another addition to the Gamecube’s amazing library
you know I am really glad you did this honestly because when put this into ds cardrige because I am too unsmart to figure out how to put it on my 3ds you did it all for kinda exept the cardrige part
Cant wait for someone in the future to make an in-depth analysis of each version of this game and which to get
2:27 nice shot
5:00 Nice 8-bit version of the "correct" sound.
Also, idea for the DS port: Make the Select button switch between the screens (top, bottom then both screens), so for example you can exactly see where the line is going if you set it to bottom.
CST??

makes me really appreciate all game devs out there for really trying to make their games to play well on every platform out their possible.
a fun and interesting sort of experiment! Loved hearing about the technical issues along the way :)

the vita being classified as retro hurt me

12:08 That literally just looks like a DS game that I would have owned lol
I feel like your game would’ve fit right onto the DSI Shop back in the day, probably would’ve made a decent sum, too!
You know, it would be interesting to see this game get ported even more, like versions for Android, OG Xbox (I'll gladly use my OG as a test dummy for you), and 3DS
This is the best video ever made by Polymars imo
I'm also going to suggest a you figure out a way to abstract the code, so that with a few makefile switches you can compile to different targets
Part of it will be a MVC type setup--another part is that silly 'backend/frontend stuff...
Yeah... this is a pain in the arse to figure it out--but once you get it down, it creates for a few good habits when it comes to coding projects and stuff
THIS. Thsvm for the tip!!!

I like your funny words, magic man.
Exactly!
This is really cool! I'd love more Gamecube ports and DS ports too! Wii, Gamecube, DS, and 3DS are all really cool consoles to get homebrew on for me. Especially Gamecube, as it's one of my favorite consoles.

Great Video, I Have So Fun With This
Awesome 🔥 i recently got into vita development and watching people still making games for vita make me happy, I'm working on a third person shooter for vita i installed necessary tools for unity to build for vita and i hope i make it to the end man, your video helps me realise that it is possible with unity to make games for vita
I cannot lie, I love this and play it on my ds often.
The hardest part was not infact porting but recording each port working XD
For functions that need to change between systems, like loading assets, drawing things, etc, you can abstract it, so the function name is always the same, but it does different things based on system. You still need to figure out how to do stuff, it just cuts down a lot on refactoring. For screen resolution changes, you can have a base set of numbers, than then get modified by a factor based on screen resolution so you don't need to change all the variables, it is automatic. For PSP sound, perhaps sound needs ran in a different thread.
Really cool project, thanks for sharing the source code! Would be nice to see a Dreamcast port too some day :)
13:51 That Dani reference xD
Holy shit man. I'm going to download these games for ds and play them!

Yo I'm roaming in the Open Shop and I found your game. I instantly remembered this video.
6:19 "better" way to do that, would be to draw 1 sprite per pixel the line passes. Longer lines would take longer to draw, but the average line is probiably only 50 or so pixels long
I love the DSiWare vibes, but yeah, like the other comments said, coulda made better use of the dual screens.

So as a secondary question, would you ever consider doing a guide on using some of these homebrew libraries
4:14 "i was honestly pretty suppressed" lmao (no hate great content!)
I love all of the ports.
(And the original too.)
Almost 2 years algo, when I first watched this, I was thinking in which path I'll take after graduating on Computer Science.
This video for my was so interesting, because I hadn't thought in game development, so when the video ended, I went to LinkedIn and wrote to some devs. I got really inspired.
Now, this video is recommended to me again. Today am creating my games as a indie developer, and even been invited to GDC.
TerriFried would sell amazingly for the DS if it got an official game card and was made back when the DS was popular.
Port this game to MS-DOS.
i mean they ported super mario 64 to dos so why not terrifried?
Amazing original content.
