Template:Infobox 3DS homebrew

1. Minicraft3DS 3DS Homebrew port of Notch's ludum dare game "Minicraft" Dependencies: ctrulib by smea: https://github.com/smealum/ctrulib sf2dlib by xerpi: https://github.com/xerpi/sf2dlib sfillib by xerpi: https://github.com/xerpi/sfillib zlib: http://www.zlib.net/ Current Version: Version 1.0 You can do anything with the source code (besides sell it) as long as you give proper credit to the right people. If you are going to make a mod of this version, be sure to give credit to Markus "Notch" Perrson because he did create the original game after all. This source code is subject to a lot of change for better optimization/cleanliness. Forum thread: https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-beta-minicraft-3ds-homebrew-edition.399295/

This is a 3DS port of a game created by Markus "Notch" Persson as part of the Ludum dare 22 competition back in december 2011. I have rewritten the entire game in C, as Java programs don't run on the 3DS.

How to play:

Spoiler

• Move with the circle pad or the D-pad.
• Attacking and using items are with A or B.
• Open your inventory or use a workbench with X or Y.

The point of the game is to kill the Air Wizard, who lives up in the sky.

To get access to the sky, you must find stairs to delve into the earth to find gems to make a gem pickaxe.

There are 3 levels in the underground. Each level has it's own level of ore; you can smelt the ores in the furnace to make Iron/Gold bars to make better weapons with the anvil. (Yes gold tools are better than iron tools in this game).

First level - Iron ore
Second level (water) - Gold ore
Third level (lava) - Gem ore

I recommend that you get at-least 100 gems to make both a pickaxe and a sword. After that go back up to the surface and find the stairs that lead up to the clouds, then you will face off against the air-wizard.

Texture packs:

Spoiler

As of beta build 4, you can make texture packs for the game. They contain 3 .png files inside a .zip files. Below is the default textures inside a zip file for you to edit. To make a description, just edit the global comment of the .zip file (use 7zip or winRAR).

This game uses the sf2d library created by xerpi, it's a great GPU rendering library for 2D games. You can check it out here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-beta-sf2dlib-simple-and-fast-2d-library-using-the-gpu.384796/
