Homebrew Picroxx!, the ultimate Picross clone!

[GalladeGuy]

Still working on this, puzzles are almost 100% functional (missing a couple features), I'm working on menus and I've implemented a QR code reader so people can share their own puzzles

Will it be possible to share puzzles via local wireless or infrared?

It's a good idea but I don't have another 3DS to test it with :S so not on my priority list for now, but if I can get people to test it I might try

I've got a couple hacked 3DS's. I'd be happy to help test.

So COOOOL!!! Hope to you making a stable version of this, and it'll be dumped for Citra (maybe until complete it, the encryption be no longer annoying, cuz I didn't use the word "decrypted")

Is this still in development? The downloads tab says no CIA build. I can't wait to see this completed!

Still on development. Lots of progress has been done

You should use the latest development version of LÖVEPotion so you can get .ogg streaming support.
Then convert your .wav to .ogg

find . -name \*.wav -exec ffmpeg -i {} -acodec libvorbis {}.ogg \;

find . -name \*.wav.ogg -exec rename 's/.wav.ogg/.ogg/' \;

Also, you should do a git rebase, and remove the .wav files to make clone times faster.

I'm working on a fork of LÖVEPotion that uses LuaJIT, and when I try it with this game, it crashes, probably because it ran out of ram. (LuaJIT is quite a bit faster, but it also uses quite a bit of RAM)

Eh, just a suggestion, but you could import puzzles from Picross NP Vol. 1, that would be awesome !

I saw that we were seriously lacking on homebrew puzzle games, so I decided to make one. The goal of the project is to port almost every single puzzle from all mainstream Picross games, like Mario's Picross, Picross 2, Super Mario's Picross, Picross DS and the Picross e series.

i had this idea a month or so ago - i'm very happy someone has started it before i even thought of it
i was wondering how difficult it would be to rip the levels from the picross games, did you have any luck or did you resort to doing it manually?
nice work

Picross 3D possibly? that belongs on a real 3D console.

The game is currently being rewritten on C++, it doesn't use LÖVEPotion anymore.

Actually, I'm taking back my suggestion : There is also the possibility of adapting video game's Picross from NP1 to 8 :')

it turns out it's pretty easy to rip the levels of picross.
at least, mario's picross.
outside of japan, some of the puzzles were 'censored' (beer etc), so it's good to remember that if you really want 'all' of them.
the gameboy versions are only black and white, but snes, ds, 3ds etc, they have color information in the puzzle i guess, so that will make things a little harder.

The Wayback Machine is a more useful tool than you may think.
