Announcing ReVITAlize homebrew competition. Create a splash screen for a chance to win a $20 PSN Code
Alright.
Now that we have the Vita scene up and running, I feel it’s time we had a proper homebrew competition.
The last time I organized a homebrew competition was in 2011, and it was the PSP Genesis competition. It was a blast, and during that competition, gems were created such as Lamecraft, Localizer, Pro CFW, and even a Kernel exploit.
I’m probably not going to reproduce something of the scale of the Genesis competition. I don’t have that amount of time required for that. But I’d be happy to kickstart the Vita scene by offering a few cash prizes here and there.
Besides the cheesy name, I’m not sure yet about the rules that we’ll have for that competition, or the prizes. But for now, I know that I want some sort of splash screen for it, so let’s start with that.

This was the splash screen for the PSP Genesis competition
I started a tiny contest on the /talk forum: submit a splash screen following the rules on the thread. I’ll pick a winner in a few days/weeks (depending on how many submissions we get), and the winner will get a $20 PSN Code. Enjoy, and I hope you like the idea of having a friendly competition going on!
Well this should hopefully get some interesting homebrew if a competition is held. Good luck all. Can’t wait to see how the vita scene turns out.
I don’t have a vita and don’t intend to get one really, but I enjoy reading about advancements in the hacking scenes. Thanks for supporting the scene.
Also 1st and 1st comment ever on the site. :p
Damn it lol. Ah well. 1st comments are lame anyway. :p
You’re too slooow!
– Me
So basically, you don’t give a *** about the scene, or its progress. You just felt the need to comment given the chance you were to be first, so you had to think of some *** to spew out in that comment.
Let’s get back to being happy that progress is being made in the scene instead of just waving your tiny e-*** around. Your family must be so proud of you. As for me, I am perfectly content playing games on the hardware they were intended for. If I want to play emulators I can do so on one of my many other hacked consoles. Thanks, dipshit.
Noob here. What’s a Splash screen?
Basically a logo screen
A screen that appears when you open an application that may contain an image like a logo so it looks nicer. Also, helps you think the application is loading up rather than being frozen and not showing anything for a couple seconds.
So what happen to native vita hack bounty?.. did yi fu won?
Smiles
You mean yufi hacker dude?
Yes. Reprep is coordinating the whole thing, we will start messaging people. In the meantime, I am also working on the “PSM+” release, which will allow people to use the PSM dev App without a psm publisher license
Will PSM+ be able to run on a home computer? The last post about it seemed to imply it would be running on a public server, which was the sticking point, as it was a fairly resource intensive process. This seemed odd to me, but I obviously have no idea what’s actually involved in the process (maybe it needs a site with a ssl/tls cert that the Vita already accepts, and would thus be unavailable on on home device?).
Anyway, I’m looking forward to the release. I was lazy and didn’t apply for the publishing license early enough to get one.
i dont get it :v , what about the fw 3.51 cant sign in to psn . qny idea ?
Wololo, can you also send money to paypal account instead of PSN code?
No! dont be so greedy, giving a psn code is more ideal coz then person will spend it on a game instore and hopefully maybe find an exploit within this game. Stop coming here just hoping for money ffs!
Competition time, yeehaaa.
I was about to release my homebrew RTS anyway, VITA deserves it, Wololo deserves, the world needs it, THE FUTURE DEPENDS ON IT, the….haaaaaa….
The unity dev app on rejuvenate will just be OUTSTANDING !
I really hope UNITY will work fine with this hack. Just imagine the possibilities….Ho god…My imagination is limitless…
nice start
The Genesis homebrews are great! BTW commenting from my PSP 😀
Only for the US nothing of interest…
I think participating is more rewarding than the $20. Kids these days always thinking about the ‘money’.
@yutolio, You can create a US account from anywhere in the world, you realize that?
He can. But what about his PSN trophies? 🙁 You can’t transfer them from 1 account to another.
Well tough luck on him, wololo can’t please everyone…theres always gonna be moaners
Nah…wololo can please everyone…..he got age of empires mind……and all those bleeping haters r just being jelly tht wololo gets all the attention and they try to show tht they r not pleased and do not like wololo…but in reality they love him..they r feeling dead inside….but ego takes over
😀
Do you realize that you cant transfer your EU purchased games to an US account, even around the world?
I took interest in the PSP hacking scene when version 6.35 was released so what was the scale of Genesis?
:(:(:(
The PSN Code will be US only?
Yes
There is probly away around it , I have entered the competition for the sake of it and again it is for the love of the vita.
OK maybe I missed it, but how can you *currently* develop homebrew for the VITA if you don’t have (a friend with) a publisher license key? I have the regular Dev Assistant installed. I don’t think the Assistant for Unity installation trick has been released yet and neither has Yifan Lu’s keyless method?
RIP pspslimhacks.
Well, I have no need for a $20 PSN card but maybe I’ll give this a go. I followed the genesis competition religiously back in the day, I still play Lamecraft and NZP every now and then.
