Mastermind changelog

No French jokes here, folks. Only a lot of gaming goodness. The French homebrew group known as Team 280 released their very own dual-language version of Mastermind for the PSP.

As with any game of Mastermind, your job is to figure out the hidden combination of colors by a process of trial and error. In Mastermind 1.0, you have ten tries to figure out the combination and the program will respond as to whether you're assumptions are right or wrong. Guess right, and you get points for a running score total. Here's Team 280 directions on playing the game on your PSP:

Combination Inputs:

• Cross: put a red
• Circle: put a green
• Triangle: put a blue
• Square : put a brown

Home : Exit
Sound : Stop or play music
Start : Help Menu

A white light shows you that one color is well-placed, while a black light shows that one color is not well-placed.

There are currently two versions of the game out: a 1.00 & 2.xx version using Kriek eLoader, and a 1.5 version. Feel free to pick up the one that suits your needs, and make sure to give Team 280 props on a fun game and Cloos for some sweet Mastermind music. Just make sure you know what you're doing so you don't brick your PSP, and feel free to check the discussion thread linked below if you want to ask any questions. Enjoy!

Once again, Team 280's theketchupman (aka ketchup) passed by our QJ forums recently and hooked us up with updates on their team's homebrew game, Mastermind. He comes to us bearing both good and not so pleasant news, let's start with the bad tidbit first. He mentions that Team 280 decided to stop developing TIFF homebrews, so that Mastermind v0.5 TIFF homebrew game we talked about two days ago maybe their last TIFF creation.

Now, the good news. The team has decided to broaden their horizons as they are all set to develop 1.0 and 1.5 homebrew since it can be played with the new eLoader. Part of the good news is a version of their Mastermind game for 1.00, 1.5 and 2.xx users, amped with more graphics and a lively music to boot.

In the future, the Team 280 guys made up of jbskator, xpierrex, Cloos and ketchup, will be coming out with an English version of their game as this one that you're about to try out is purely French. Great job and good luck to all your future plans, we hope to hear from you soon, guys!
