Have shitty logo mockup, for whatever this turns into.
If anyone needs (or wants) me to try again once an official name is made (if anything comes out of this) then I could.

MFW I realized that it was because I needed to include the 'sound' folder since they are loaded seperately.... hahaha...
All of my yes!! 
I'd love to see this at least working up to full demo potential. I hope Toby will eventually get Undertale out there on the 3DS.
EDIT: Here's a few icons I mocked up quickly:
The .3dsx doesn't seem to be working. Just boots a black screen. Also scaling the sprites down shouldn't be too hard. All you'd need to do is resize them down by 50%.

Thanks for the icons! They look perfect, and I'll add them to the demo (with credits, obviously)!
How can that be fixed? I got the code from an example from clank201, and I still didn't research a lot into the inner workings of it (but even that, it still works fine).

About the .3dsx: I've got some friends to test it and it worked every single time (Citra and real hardware).
Did you add the "data" and "audio" folder together with the .3dsx and .smdh files?
Just remove the call to linearFree in the audio_load function. At this point your project is small and the freed memory is not being reused. If it did get reused then the music would get overwritten with data - which would not sound so good.
I've just made a bare bones collision detection, only to make sure that the player doesn't go outside the boundaries of the screen.
Can anybody extract Frisk's sprites from the game? I still don't have some sprites (player walking up and down).
Also, GitHub is now updated with the code.

I'll do a bunch of programming tonight, and I'll look into grabbing the sprites if that aren't done yet!
I've made an interesting discovery today: if the system is drawing images/text on both screens, the player's movements are slowed down.
Could it be because the CPU is in usage when rendering the images?

Most likely. As far as I know homebrew doesn't make use of the console's GPU, so all that workload is being dumped on the console's main processor.
Of course I have no idea how you'd actually go on about making use of the GPU, but perhaps some of the more experienced homebrew developers might be able to lend you a hand there.

You have to use delta time to make sure the players movement isn't tied to framerate.
Wikipedia has a good description as to what that is:
It is done by calling a timer every frame that holds the time between now and last call in milliseconds. Thereafter the resulting number (Delta Time) is used to calculate how much faster that, for instance, a game character has to move to make up for the lag spike caused in the first place.
Thanks! I'll do some tests here to see if the framerate drops when using both the screens.
EDIT: I've done some testing, here are the results:
One screen being used: ~480fps
Two screens being used: ~240fps
Conclusion: drawing stuff on both screens causes the framerate to drop, and affecting the player.
So, is it possible to cap the framerate to 60fps? I think that would solve the player's speed and some other minor graphical glitches that happens sometimes.

If you use delta time then the player will move at the same speed no matter the framerate.
Here's a quick/rough implementation off the top of my head:
Code:
int prevTime = 0;
int currTime = 0;
float dt = 0;
void timerStep() {
prevTime = currTime;
currTime = osGetTime();
dt = currTime - prevTime;
dt *= 0.001;
if (dt < 0) dt = 0; // We don't want dt to be negative.
}
// Call timerStep() before your draw code each frame.Then you would multiply the players speed by dt.
Code:
player_y += speed;
Code:
player_y += speed * dt;You may have to change the speed variables value to get the speed you want though.
Thanks a lot dude, now the player speed is just perfect
I'll update my GitHub repository with the code in some minutes
I mean the demo, that free version available on the game's website.
EDIT: I haven't read correctly your message, sorry about that.

One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better. -
@
Psionic Roshambo:
I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
-
@
Psionic Roshambo:
I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G. -

Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
