Clone the repository

Install Git then clone the repository and enter its directory:

git clone https://github.com/violinmelody/2048PSP.git
cd 2048PSP

Requirements

You need a working PSPDEV/PSPSDK toolchain and GNU Make. The following commands should be available:

psp-config
psp-gcc
mksfoex
pack-pbp
make

PSPDEV installation documentation is available on the PSPDEV website. If you use a prebuilt PSPDEV archive on Linux, extract it to a permanent location and configure the environment, for example:

export PSPDEV="$HOME/pspdev"
export PATH="$PSPDEV/bin:$PATH"

Verify the toolchain:

psp-config --pspsdk-path
psp-gcc --version

For convenience put the exports in your shell profile if you work on the project regularly.

Build

From the repository root:

make clean
make -j"$(nproc)"

The build creates EBOOT.PBP in the repository root. The Makefile embeds the title 2048 and APP_VER=1.00 in PARAM.SFO, the PSP module itself is version 1.0.

To rebuild after editing source files, normally only this is needed:

make -j"$(nproc)"

To force a completely clean build:

make clean
make -j"$(nproc)"

Install on a PSP

Create:

ms0:/PSP/GAME/2048/

Copy the compiled file to:

ms0:/PSP/GAME/2048/EBOOT.PBP

The PSP must be configured to run homebrew software.

Save data

Version 1.0.0 uses two independent files:

ms0:/PSP/GAME/2048/score.dat
ms0:/PSP/GAME/2048/settings.dat

score.dat stores the persistent best score. settings.dat stores the selected accent color and sound preference. If the normal Memory Stick path cannot be opened, the same filenames are used relative to the game working directory as a fallback.
