This "game" is good!

There's a lot of games for 3DS which i find amazing and addicting, like SSB4, Kid Icarus and more. But i recently found at random a tiny game that is 10mb of space, so i tested it out of curiosity and is amazing! And is called: SmileBASIC

For people who don't know, SmileBASIC is a BASIC interpreter for 3DS and is not a homebrew, is a full licensed game! You can not only make simple programs like "Hello World" or a calculator, but full games on 2D and fully 3D polygon using all the 3DS input arsenal like 3D, gyro, acceleration sensors, communication between 2 or more consoles and more! You can even share your creations on the cloud and download other's people's games!

I have never been so addicted since WarioWare DIY. Being able to code and test it "on-the-go"...

I've never played, sounds interesting though. The whole cloud system sounds like it could be like mario maker in a sense. With the whole downloading others creations and playing them as well as they try yours
 
The only downside is that the game doesn't come with tutorials of how to program in BASIC (the manual only tells how to use the app). So it's a little rough for newcomers.

And also, for the cloud sharing thing, to download a project you need a sharekey which is generated by the app and only the autor can share it on websites (commonly on the SmileBASIC site). So if you want a program you need to find his sharekey.
 
Useful info with a lot of links forma newcomers. Pretty handy to illustrate yourself and to share tour projects:

Yes it is a very well game and an interesting concept, I realy like to see the same concept of Petit Computer of the DSi by the same company again in 3DS.
