Kahvibreak is a preservation project and collection of Java 2 Micro Edition mobile phone games, presented using the Flashpoint launcher and emulated via the J2ME emulators KEmulator and FreeJ2ME.

As of January 2024, this project is inactive, due to the disappearance of the project's maintainer, Nokia64.

Overview

The launcher for BlueMaxima's Flashpoint (the Flash preservation project).

Kahvibreak uses the same workflow as Flashpoint. Games are curated in the same way, and each game has the same set of metadata (publisher, developer, logo, screenshot, etc).

Games are double click to play, with all the difficult parts taken care of. Install is easy; just extract the ZIP file after you download it.

A version of the Java software is included alongside Kahvibreak and the emulators run through it, so you don't need to install Java to play.

You will need a full-sized keyboard to play.

Controls

The numpad is laid out like a phone keypad (with the 7/8/9 and 1/2/3 key rows reversed). Q and W are soft keys, E and R serve as * and #, and you can navigate with the arrow keys and Enter. Both emulators use the same control scheme.

Kahvibreak Curation Tutorial

Tutorial These are added to the collection by curators on our Discord server. Curation consists of picking out best version(s) of a game and packaging it with a logo, gameplay screenshot and metadata (essentially information such as its developer, publisher, genre, platform and release date) and choosing one of included emulators which works best with it.
