ColorFiller
An open source homebrew recreation of FlowFree in C++ for the 3DS!
Hello! I haven't been active for a while, and I'm bored in quarantine, so I thought I'd make a game... except I'm bad at making games. There came in the idea to redo an existing game, and what better game for the 3ds than Flow, everyone's favourite puzzle game?
Control
- Pack selection screen:
- d-pad up/down to move selection
- circle pad up/down to scroll
- A to select
- B to exit
- touchscreen to do any of these!
- Level selection screen:
- d-pad to move selection
- L/R to change page
- A to select
- B to go back to the pack selection screen
- touchscreen is your friend
- Playing screen:
- d-pad... you guessed it
- A to select a color to move (you can only select a source [the circles with a letter in them], or a point that is not connected.
- B to go back to the level selection screen
- X to switch the level between scaled and scrolled if it doesn't fit in the screen
- Y to toggle between selecting the bottom or the top of a bridge, and resets the level if held for 3 seconds!
- touchscreen loves you
Levels
The levels can be created using an editor (soon™), or by dumping the levelpack_*.txt from the assets folder of the game APK.
Simply use an apk dumper application on your phone (there are many) to get the file, then open it with <a href="https://www.7-zip.org/" rel="nofollow">7-zip</a> 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 <a href="https://www.python.org/" rel="nofollow">Python 3.6+</a>).
You will get a file named levels.zip which you should put on 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! Do note that changing your levels file can invalidate your save file, so I recommend making backups.

This version of the game is licensed under the GPLv3.
