ColorFiller is an open source homebrew recreation of FlowFree in C++ for the 3DS.

Installation

Available in 3DSX format.

User guide

Connect the 2 points with the same color, and fill the board to win.

More levels can be added by dumping the levelpack_*.txt from the assets folder of the game APK. To do so:

Use an apk dumper application on your phone to get the file, then open it with 7-zip or your favourite archive extractor.
Put the level packs you want in a levels folder in the same directory as the convert_level_packs.py file, then run said file (requires Python 3.6+).
Copy the output file levels.zip to your 3DS' SD card, at the path specified by the levels_path settings of your configuration file (the default is sd:/3ds/ColorFillerLevels.zip).
You are now ready to play the game.

Note: Changing your levels file can invalidate your save file, so it is recommended to make backups.
