Here my first result of my SDL Port:



This Example use: LibSDL, libSDL_Image and LibSDL_ttf

ToDo:
I Need a way to Rotate the Framebuffer from 240x400 to 400x240.
Audio not supported but i am working on it :), LibSDL_mixer allready compiled.
 
Hey there, rotating framebuffer should be easy (I'm pretty surprised that you've ported SDL with everything still sideways), so really just audio to do, huh? Maybe wait for the DSP to be figured out first though.
Anyway, nice work on the port.

This is SDL 1.2 but if all works fine ist more easy to me to port it to SDL2 curently i have an unfinished build of SDL2 for 3DS on my source
 
Nice. I guess we'll be seeing a lot more 3DS homebrew in the near future.
Every platform that has a SDL port seems to get the exact same range of games ported to it though, getting kinda tired of that :P
 
I am Porting it actualy for my Game called TailTale:

I merged your two threads (release and preview) into a single one.
Please use a single thread for each project so it's easier to follow and find homebrew on this forum's section :)
thank you.
