Hey! Today I was challenged to create a game in less than an hour with my template and here is the result: ARKANOID NX

It is a modified version of this quick tutorial but this time with SDL2 and for Nintendo Switch.

Screenshots:

This is more a PoC as it has just one level but hey, it works. It is totally open-source if anyone wants to improve it.

How to play:

  • Left / Right to move the paddle
  • Touch the screen to move the paddle to that X point
  • Plus to exit

What does this have:

  • Splash screen, title screen and game screen
  • Music and SFX
  • Images rendered with SDL2
  • Settings and game data saved in a JSON in switch/manurocker95/ArkanoidNX/data.sav
  • Multilanguage support (just Spanish and English for now)
  • Open source code

Downloads:

- Binaries/Releases: https://github.com/Manurocker95/ArkanoidNX/releases

This is a homebrew compiled with devkitpro, not the official SDK. If you want to get the SDK you need to contact them and have luck they give you the plugins and stuff.

If you want to create NX homebrews you have here my tutorial: https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutoria...-nintendo-switch-homebrew-development.525977/

    at all
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    like i searched all folders
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    are you using haxchi, tiramisu or aroma?
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    no, I'm asking which one of them you are using
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    so like it doesnt exist
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
    ?
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    it doesn't exist, at least not for aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    ohhhhh
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    on tiramisu you can access it by opening mii maker
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    but homebrew is appearing in the home menu btw
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    i just didint know the homebrew launcher didint exist in aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
