Heart of The Alien for PSP - R1 is out

August 22nd, 2006, 00:24 Posted By: Tinnus

Did you like the news about that oh-so-close Another World interpreter for the PSP?

Well, now you have the sequel! HOTA for the PSP is just released.

Remarks:
- Get an ISO image from the original HOTA game for the Sega CD.
- Don't ask anyone here (or me) where to get it, use your creativity (or google if you don't have any).
- The ISO file must be called "Heart Of The Alien (U).iso" and be in the same folder as the eboot.

Bugs:
- Some vertical lines in the display
- No music tracks
- Intro exits after one specific part

I'm working on solving both. The lines problem will go away soon for sure. About the intro I'm a little clueless, but you can just skip it for now using Triangle (see below). If you want so watch it just get the PC interpreter from http://hota.sourceforge.net

Features:
- Full sound effects
- Full screen display
- Quick Save/load -- that's a really good one! Never need to use those passwords again. Although you can still press Start anytime to go to the PW screen.

You need about 10KB for saving the game with Quick Save.

Controls:
- D-Pad: movement
- Square: run (hold and move) / shoot (see below)
- Cross: Jump
- Circle: whip
- Triangle: skip cutscenes, quit (although it's generally better to exit via the home button)

Shooting:
- Tap the button to shoot. Press and hold for a few moments to create a shield. The shield will disapeear after some time. Press and hold for even more time (the glow in the tip of the whip will get bigger) to release an energy blast, which destroys other shields, and some kinds of doors/enemies/machines.

Misc:
- In one part of the game you get two parts of a bomb and need to activate it somewhere. Press X, Square and Circle at the same time to activate the bomb.
