Homebrew Game: Abombniball Port for PSP (PSPUpdates)

The New Year has barely started and already PSPUpdates' forums are teeming with homebrew releases! This one, Abombniball, comes from freakdave and may be familiar to many of you as it made quite an impression in the Xbox scene. The goal is to hop around the tiles disarming the bombs as the tiles start to disappear. Very addictive to say the least and definitely challenging. This one will surely keep you entertained today during commercials as you're watching the New Year's Day games!
The objective of Abombniball is to defuse all the explosives on each level. As a ball, this would normally be a simple task, however each level is filled with traps and devious puzzles placed there by...oh...lets say "Dr. Y-Front", your arch-nemesis (he's very evil). These traps take the form of special tiles which disappear or do other nasty things.

Grey Tile - A solid tile. He never falls away and abandons you like all those other tiles. He's always be there for you.

Blue Tile
Green Tile
Red Tile - These all vanish after you leave them. Leaving a gapping
hole in the grid and an empty space in your heart.

2 Tile - More caring and forgiving than those selfish color tiles. You can bounce on these submissive fellas twice before they vanish.

Blue Arrow - Rude fellows. Shove you in whatever direction the arrow is pointing.

Red Arrow - Even ruder still. They make you jump in whatever direction the arrow is pointing.

You defuse bombs by landing on the bombs square, however you can only defuse the bomb thats currently counting down. Trying to defuse any other bomb will cause it to explode.

Each level provides you with a certain amount of jumps, they are limit so use them with care.

Controls (Analogue stick)
--------
Left - Move left
Right - Move right
Up - Move up
Down - Move down
(hold) X button - Jump
According to freakdave, he only tested this out on 2.0 PSP's with Fanjita's EBOOT Loader, but I've converted it for 1.50 firmware and it plays just fine. Both versions are found in the download below.
