Fewnity is a French coder with a penchant for Nintendo DS projects, who over time has been building more and more ambitious projects. Always how it goes: you start off making Flappy Bird, and before you know it end up with an online version of Counter-Strike running on the hardware.<\/p>\n

Counter-Strike DS<\/a> was a project Fewnity began because he and a few friends liked playing CS: GO, but not everyone had suitable hardware. It’s not a port exactly but a version of the game built from the ground-up with the only map you need, the 1.6 version of Dust 2, which can be played in singleplayer with bots or online in both a private party and with randoms. This legend’s even running his own server to handle it.<\/p>\n

“I never played Counter Strike 1.6,” Fewnity clarifies. “I’m only playing CS GO because It’s the only CS I own ahah.” As for the nature of the project, he writes “I think Demake is more accurate, but port is good too for me”.<\/p>\n

You may have seen glimpses of this project before: Fewnity’s been working on Counter-Strike DS for a couple of years and has previously released screens. But this year saw things move into overdrive with the release of a public alpha version, and then the gradual addition of essential functionality like a buy menu, before online and version 1.0 arrived a few weeks ago.<\/p>\n

Most impressive to me, in what was already an extremely impressive project, is that this version of Counter-Strike uses the DS touchpad to aim and shoot, as well as incorporating a tap-to-jump command. Fewnity also has a version of this running on Vita that is apparently cross-play, which is pretty wild, though that has yet to see public release.<\/p>\n

You can now select the game mode! Online multiplayer, bots improved, bug fixes and more very soon on CS DS! \ud83d\udd2b\ud83d\udd79\ufe0f#screenshotsaturday #Nintendo #Counter #Strike pic.twitter.com\/PTGOzw8vdXJuly 2, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n

There are other neat elements to this, such as custom button re-mapping, and Fewnity’s said they’re going to continue working on it beyond 1.0.
