Retrobattle is a port of the open source Retrobattle game to the 3DS. It is made to look and feel like the classic arcade-style NES games, such as Ice Climber and Clu Clu Land. Not only are the sprites limited to three colors each, but the scoring, increasing difficulty, and setup of the game makes for a challenging arcade experience that mixes various oldschool concepts.
This game was originally implemented in Game Maker by Daniel Remar. This is a port of the C++/SDL implementation by Andreas Remar.
Installation
Available in 3DSX and CIA formats. All the resources are included in the executable using romfs.
- CIA - Install the .cia with the CIA manager of your choice.
- 3DSX - Use the .3dsx provided with the Homebrew Launcher.
The game creates a Retrobattle subfolder inside the 3ds folder if doesn't exist. Here will be saved your scores.
User guide
Note that playing on Skill 1 may seem slow at first, compared to the havoc of Skill 8.
