LövePotion is an unofficial work in progress implementation of the LÖVE API for 3DS Homebrew.

If you're not aware of LÖVE, it's a framework you can use to make 2D games in Lua.

To learn C, I decided to make an unofficial port of its API to 3DS, which I feel is in a state I can make a beta release. It is still nowhere near completion and there's still a lot to be done, but very simple games can be made very easily.

You can look at/contribute to the source code on the projects GitHub.
You can download builds from the GitHub Releases page.

Make sure to check out the LÖVE Wiki, aswell as the Implemented list to see what you can use.

Can we play games already made in love(like mari0) or do we have to remake them for 3DS?

Depends on the complexity of the game.

Getting mari0 running would be very difficult, as it uses shaders + an old version of LÖVE + a lot of unimplemented stuff (For now at least).
It would have to be a very barebones version of mari0.

I recommend building games from the ground up, but you can attempt to port games if you think it's possible.

It's works now, LovePotion and NumberFucker3DS have same icon, i have invert it with hbl.
I think you do put a sample inside /LovePotion/game/main.lua that demonstrates the possibility of LovePotion and not just black screen.

    It's not the movies or games downloads that I would worry about, like breaking into networks, downloading encrypted things, spying on network traffic. I have seen so many "Top Secret" seals on files when I was a kid
