Mars3DS is a retro style shooter 3DS homebrew, written in C++.

The project started as a cross-platform game prototype for PC and mobile (never released), it was remade for the 3DS in C++. It has a minimalist design that aims capture the essence of a 'lost retro game'.

Installation

Available in 3DSX and CIA formats:

  • 3dsx - Run the 3dsx file via the Homebrew Launcher.
  • CIA - Install the .cia file via tools like FBI.

Controls

D-Pad or Circle Pad - Move

A - Shoot

B - Jump

Compatibility

Should work on both real hardware (old 3DS/2DS, and new 3DS/2DS) and 3DS emulators like Citra.

Known issues

  • Text rendering is not efficient. After a while the score text and the anti-gravity mushroom counter disappear.
  • Enemies can sometimes get stuck on the edge of platforms.
  • Values for spawing can be tweaked.
