About Clockwork Warehouse
For Clockwork OS v0.5:
Through Warehouse, you can easily browse and download indie games. Thanks to the participants of former Game Jams.
We truly appreciate the spirit of gaming. We welcome all the game makers to share your works with us. Please send your works to warehouse@clockworkpi.com . We also have rewards for your great works.
Works of future GameShell Game Jams may be selected for the Warehouse.
Also, you can even build your own Warehouse to share your collection with the community. Instruction will be released soon on the forum.
About Auto Expand Filesystem
It is a convenient function that allows the users to change microSD card to bigger ones.
It will automatically expand the filesystem to match the real size of your microSD.
You just need to flash the Clockwork OS v0.5 into the microSD, then put it into your GameShell, and turn it on.
