Found this little gem earlier today:

Basically, it's Lumines, but for the GBA. Thank god for homebrew. I loaded it onto my flash cart and it ran perfectly on my DS. Now I won't have PSP envy anymore :bouncy:

the only problem I see with this is the lack of wide screen since Lumines's gameplay was partially based off the length of the screen... nice for people with no PSP though.
meh the music is what makes the game on PSP.

At first I was thinking that this would probably end up being a crappy knock-off of my most beloved PSP game... but this is actually a damn good knock-off! The music isn't as good as the PSP's but it's not bad. The gameplay is very similar though!
Thanks OP!:)

the game is pretty big....almost 256 mbits. This will take my entire flash cart. Maybe it's time to get a bigger one. hmm...

yikes! this is big. It's about the size of most NDS games! Good thing my M3 doesn't use mbits, so my 1 gig flash card can hold this nicely :) Fun little game too, though I miss the soundtrack/widescreen of Lumines.

Um, no. Unless they're using graphics / music from the original.

this is really cool!
are there any other good freeware / homebrew gba games out there worth downloading? i've found some sites, but i don't think it's worth browsing through 1000+ files to find one or two good ones...

it's really difficult without the wider screen though!

Gleam is not the first Lumines clone on the GBA. There is another (http://www.pineight.com/lu/).

now THAT is fantastic :applause:
it uses the full screen, plus it takes up way less room than the other one...the music isn't as good, but it's not bad either
