I've been working on a homebrew toolchain for the Naomi and I finally got far enough that I could build a simple game. This weekend I took some time off and did a solo game jam where I came up with a simple game I call "Beam Frenzy". It's a block based puzzle game where you place blocks with pipes in them to connect beams of light. If you connect two similar beams together the blocks will clear and you will get 5 points per block that was cleared. More points can be earned if you link lights with multiple primary colors in them, and dissimilar lights can be joined as long as one light contains all colors of the other (so, blue can join to blue, purple, cyan and white for instance). I came up with the concept on the weekend and decided to give it a try. I don't think its the most fun game and there are definite balance issues with what pipes it gives you, but it is moderately fun.
Also, I'm pretty sure that this is the first homebrew game ever made for the Naomi, so that's cool! You can download it or look at the source code here: https://github.com/DragonMinded/beamfrenzy
