Very cool!

I really liked the first part of the game, though I sometimes was short before freaking out

Thanks for it, this will take my wiz out of coma!

I finally got around to trying these out (Sqrxz and Sqrxz2) and am very impressed! Awesome levels, music, and design and all for free. Nice present around the holidays! I really like that I can reassign the buttons in sqrxz2 because I find using A button works best for me (and the B button is squishy on most peoples' Wizzes)

One request if you release a newer version of these: There is a unavoidable 6 second (!!) delay after dying and it is very, very frustrating because you die a lot.. even the game's loading screen says this! Half a second or a second is really all you need, or at least make it so you can skip past the two messages with a button.

Is there a source I could compile for the F200?

@SenorQ ill bring it up with Koyote if he doesnt see it here.

Is there a source I could compile for the F200?

source is not open, but I would have(and will) supported a gp2x release for both the sqrxz 1 and 2, but I have yet been able to get libmodplug to work on it. Giana was released for the gp2x since there were ogg files. I think this would also effect the gp32 being ported.

I've heared from someone else the buttons in Sqrxz 2 are not per default assigned like in Srqzx. We probably should change the default setting. Other than that I am happy you figured out how to use the button configuration

For this delay, I'll talk with Thor - Maybe it's really something which needs change. I find it quite "relaxing" to have a short break so I can get at least very little down
