We ported our PC game to PS2

Back in 2020, we made a small top-down co-op shooter for a game jam, called Hell on Earth in Unity. Since we were children we always wanted to make a game for the PS2, so we spent the last few months porting it from scratch onto a patched version of the Tyra engine.

The game is a twin-stick co-op shooter for 1-2 players, with 5 weapons and waves of demon enemies. It works on real PS2 hardware (FMCB/OPL/wLE) or most likely in PCSX2 (we think, we've only tested on real PS2 hardware), drop the folder on a USB stick and boot the ELF.

Full disclosure: a lot of the port (C++ rewrite, engine patches, debugging) was done with a lot of AI assistance. The 2020 original was written by hand, and every asset and texture, models, sprites and audio was human-made, no AI generation.
