Homebrew AGameAWeek - 3DS

[Jayenkai]

Ugh.
Lagging behind a bit, now, sorry.

I had intended to get the game done by the end of the month, but I've just spent the past week getting over the WORST flu I've had in a long long time. Coding was minimal at best, and as such things have slipped a bit.
No matter, carry on.

I'm currently thinking that I might release a demo, or "Test Release" over the next few days, with the first bunch of levels in it, and the editor mostly functional. Hopefully folk will enjoy that much, for now, and then I can get on with finishing the important bits and pieces off, for the final release.

Or maybe not...
The past couple of days have been frankly, horrendous!
My webhost got bought out by another one, and Thursday night saw them moving all of the old host's accounts over to their system.
Everyone's sites were preserved, and placed onto a shiny fresh new server.
.. everyone's..
Instead of having 1000 sites spread over 100 servers, you now have 1000 sites crammed onto one server.
The issues are, as you'd expect, plenty.
My site is barely functioning, and when it is, it's usually not!!!

*sigh*

It's been a rough couple of days, and I'm currently midway through moving to a new new server, one which will hopefully last a smidgeon longer than the current one.

As such, all uploads have been cancelled for the next few days, as I struggle to rebuild everything ... again!!

More updates soon, hopefully!

Why would you cram over 1000 websites on one server in the first place, that's asking for a crash right there

I've released the first test edition of JNKPlat2018. It currently exists only as a .3dsx "homebrew launcher" file, because it's still unfinished.
A later release will include the usual .cia version and stuff, but I didn't think it was worth it for a test version.
Do be sure to give it a whirl, and leave any and all feedback either here, or in the separate JNKPlat2018 thread.

Thanks for any and all input.

Crikey, that took a while, didn't it?!!
OK, JNKPlat 2018 is now feature complete.
The level editor uploading is a little longwinded, involving having to play through your levels to ensure they're doable, before taking the .lev file and uploading it manually to the level database page. Apologies for that, but ... better to do things in a way that doesn't force players to enable the wifi on their 3DS and potentially get bricked due to an update or something.
I'm not turning the wifi on on my 3DS Homebrew Devkit, so I certainly shouldn't expect you to do so, either.

Anyhoo, game's ready to go, so have at!
