And now the fun: in our requests were discussed thread of this game: Skunks ... Well, as proof of the ODE library, here you have for your Dreamcast!

Skunks is a simple car game where we perform acrobatics in the style of the legendary Stunts. The most interesting is that it is fully 3D (very rare in homebrew, right?). To achieve this, this game is based on ... guess? Open Dynamics Engine.

This version only uses SDL (and therefore, does not use any 3D acceleration PVR). Still, his behavior is quite spectacular. Also generate new circuits is easy: D

Changes to the original version:
- Added initial menu to choose track and car (7 circuits and 6 cars to choose from).
- Added technical that autoruns every time you complete the game, to save RAM.

Controls:
D-PAD: Move through the menu / control car
B: Reverse
Y: Aerial Camera
X / A: Move 3D Camera
L: Return to the Menu / Exit game.

Download includes the source code and binary.
Note that there are two binary (skunks.bin and dcloader.bin). If you make a bootable CDI, add the two bins and used as the primary dcloader.bin

ODE is a library of high-performance, open source to simulate rigid body dynamics. It is stable, mature and independent of the platform made in C / C + +. Has joint types and integrated mechanism of collisions with friction. ODE is useful for simulating vehicles, objects in virtual environments and virtual creatures.

 ODE and made headlines early in the Dreamcast homebrew. In 2003, L @ Cible ported an early version of this library (0.03 I think), and used it in an impressive technical demo (which you can try here: http://dcstuntracer.sourceforge.net/)

 What you have here is the latest version of the library ready to be compiled and used in KOS environment (ie, Dreamcast). In a moment the news comes fun: D

Lately I've been really interested in checking this homebrew game out. But I don't understand how to make a cdi out of the binaries included with it (there is no 1st_read.bin? and renaming either of the binaries doesn't work either).
