Squaresliding 1.1
Squaresliding is a strategic puzzle game where you must pass over a certain number of squares on the board in order to complete a level. It also comes with an enhanced mode, where the board is peppered with all kinds of fun bonus items that will greatly affect play.

What's new in 1.1?
- speed improvement: tested at 100Mhz, maybe lower too (set it with Gmenu2x)
- added F200 touchscreen controls (game, menus)
- fixed graphical stutter after getting a hiscore
- erasing hiscores only erases the current mode's hiscores
Squaresliding is inspired by Nick Kouvaris's Spy game, and I expect the F200 will capture the experience quite well thanks to its touchscreen (by the way, for those of you with MK1s, the action buttons can act as a joypad replacement). Background music is by Chaozz and Tall B from their freeware pack.
Blix2x
Blix2x is a remake of Nick Kouvaris's flash game Blix. The goal is to form columns of same-coloured tiles by scrolling the three rows. Each scroll costs 2 moves, and each cleared column wins you 1 move. The game ends when you run out of moves. Like Squaresliding, Blix2x has touchscreen controls throughout in addition to regular ones.

This game is obviously simpler and less polished than Squaresliding, but I think it's pretty fun nonetheless. You can safely underclock it (with Gmenu2x) to 55Mhz, anything below that makes the sound stutter.
Many thanks go to Paeryn for his excellent work on SDL, and to the F200 beta testers: eric, morrissey2k7, and Sphinxter.
As always, all feedback is greatly appreciated
