2) Dink smallwood hd data can be extracted from android apk file

This must be placed inside ux0:/data/proton
3) Download the .vpk file from below link and install the same via vitashell

The game should work if it fails to launch then files are not placed correctly , check log at ux0:/data/logs.txt to find out which file is missing.

Well done! I might play this game on the Vita just for old time's sake.
Nice job!
I won't try it though, because I don't have a Vita. You know, even if I had one, I'd probably just spend the time trying to finish my PC library. It speaks volumes that I have a PS2 and a DS, and I still don't play any games on them for months, even though I have a nice library (PS2) and a good opportunity (DS, flash cart) because I have a few hundred PC titles I still never finished or played.
Also, is it just me, or did I notice correctly that new users have trouble registering on the DN for a while now?

that and not being able to download things through chrome. i think the site's been abandoned again.
I am pretty sure that the problem with Chrome is due to changes in the browser, for which there appear to be some work-arounds.

the common, casual userbase that downloads and doesn't talk isn't going to go through the effort.
I was testing the game for Nabi on my pstv and almost 30% through, the game looks great on a tv so far the only issues i faced are mostly performance of the game outdoors it is a bit slow and controls specially movement is a bit hard due to the thumbstick not in use , the analog directions are a bit hard to use.

You make a good point. Hopefully, this is something that affects other websites that are being browsed by Chrome, such that Chrome users will try the "Right Click/Save link as" option. But, just in case, let's see if we can get Redink to help us.
Mister Redink; Can you please "fix" this for Chrome, a very common browser? Alternatively, could you include directions near every download button that say something like "[Chrome Users may need to use [Right Click/Save link as to download]" OR "[Some Browsers may require the use of [Right Click/Save link as to download]".
Everyone: #1 What is the best way to reach out to Redink with this request? I just left a message for him on discord. #2 Does anyone know if any other browsers have this problem?
