I do have a thread on the matter

This appears to be a five nights at freddies mod or distant relative. There is a version of FNAF for the 3ds ( https://www.gamebrew.org/wiki/Five_Nights_at_Freddys_1_3DS ), though I am not sure if it is open source. As a premise though the game should be easy enough to do from scratch (it is basically a visual novel/static image viewer with a timer in terms of the underlying engine) if you wanted to go that way.

I believe we are still suggesting https://devkitpro.org/ as the tool of choice for 3ds development, if it was for the DS you might have some other options (you could probably do a game like this in a higher level language - https://gbatemp.net/threads/attempt...amming-languages-available-for-the-ds.357792/ , Lua having quite a notable scene on the DS) but 3ds did not see much reach a notable level of maturity for it. If you were exceptionally good you might be able to pull something off for the 3DS web browser.
