Electris is a homebrew puzzle game for the PSP (Playstation Portable), written in Lua.

It was participated in the DCEmu/Lik-Sang Lua Coding Competition 2006 (winner).

Installation

Copy the Electris directory to the /PSP/GAME/ directory on your PSP.

User guide

Electris is a puzzle game in the falling block genre.

The goal is to align the blocks to create closed circuits. As the circuits are closed, they are removed from the board.

Be careful - you can place blocks such that you can't close a circuit. Large circuits will give you circuit-breakers so you can clean up mistakes.

Keep an eye on the timer as well; if you take too long to make a circuit, a penalty row will be added to the bottom of the screen.

Scoring:

  • 1 point for each block dropped.
  • 10 points per block in a closed circuit.
  • Chain circuits earn a score multiplier.
  • 25 point bonus if circuit-breaker erases no blocks (double if dropped to floor).
