D-pad - move around the tunnel and zoom in or out
A or L - fire
Stylus - move view
X - switch between manual and automatic view (touching the screen switches to manual)
Select - toggles invincibility
Compatibility
Can be played on real hardware.
Tested with SuperCard MiniSD and M3 DS Simply
Credits
Thanks must go to everyone who's contributed to DevKitPro and libnds, particularly the people who implemented the pseudo-OpenGL functions which made writing this demo so easy.
A particular thanks must go to Dovoto who converted the NeHe tutorial demos for use on the DS. Some of the initialisation and texture loading code was taken from these demos. Thanks!
