Ceres is a space shooting game similar to the "Asteroids" arcade game. Made by edepot (Po-Han Lin), it is a recreation of the classic Asteroids but with the addition of some "smooth 3D effects" and background music.
It was submitted to the Neo Summer Coding Compo 2006 (PSP Games).

Firmware 1.0: Copy everything inside the folder firmware1.0 from ssmg.zip to your Memory Stick's /PSP/GAME/ directory.
Note from developer: If you are running a Custom Firmware, make sure it is set up to run 1.50 Firmware inside directory ms0:/PSP/GAME/ (where ms0:/ is the root of your Memory Stick). So if it is currently set up to run in ms0:/PSP/GAME150/, make sure you change it to the original directory structure of ms0:/PSP/GAME/.
