3ds-web-stuff's Issues

Another name change

Sorry I came up with a spelling that I am much happier with that is still pronounced the same as tricky. So could you change it to Trickiy thx. I don't plan to change it again.

brew.js api

I am curious to know what this old unfinished js api can do.

[elementGame.js]add cordinates

add cordinates attached to Maxwell so it isn't getting lost off screen.

debloat the brower

Disabling some if not all of the stuff that is running in the backround to free up the CPU and memory this would allow for better perfomace. Like not letting anything that is suspended to run while in the browser. I don't know how this would be done but something like this is all ready doable on windows and Linux. Thru a task manager and I have seen in Khan academy people disable the loop protection setup in the Khan academy's javascript sandbox. So it is at least theoretically possible I think.

[SUGGESTION] Physics playground

It is what the title says things like sand, water, fire, lava, ragdolls, guns, bombs, changing of gravity/time, and more are simulated interacting with one another.

[Tic-Tac-Toe] Inaccurate app icon

The circles in the icon are blue when in game they are green.

replace Trickygamers

I finally found out how to change my username, so may you pls replace my old user name Trickygamers with Trickii or Trikkii.
thx for adding my username to hangman it means a lot to me.

old 3ds performance problems

For old 3ds's the home page is slow and sluggish(literally every game too) and the animations for some of the animals on the top screen will not play out(it seems to be only the chicken ), in the pong game the ball physics will be sped up, in jetfighter due to the slow framerate the jet will start spinning and shooting in all directions when moving left/right including the helicopters. Will notify if I see more issues.

addition of cookie clicker classic?

https://orteil.dashnet.org/experiments/cookie/
would it be possible to add this old version of cookie clicker the site? It's been compatible with the 3ds the entire time. Ignoring the finickyness and bugs it's 100% playable.

[SUGGESTION]Dual screen breakout

Breakout using both screens with power ups that fall from broken bricks with both touch controls and D-pad to move and a to start.

Guiding light

This game would be were a person is stuck in a wastland of pure darkness along side the person a wimsicle glowing friend with the goal to find a way to end the endless darkness cursed upon the planet by unknown figuers. I imagine the game being a stealthy platfomer where the player has limited visabillity the player would have to be carefull to not make to much noise or bugs, arachnids, goblins, gouls, and more will find you. All while the player is trying to doge, climb, swing, fly, and swim to safety. Using the touchscreen to get the glowing friend to light the way, reveal hidden objects and secrets, open doors, solve puzzles, and scare off some dangers some other dangers would be atracted to the light.

volcano climb

A platformer were blocks and poison blocks fall that the player needs to dodge and climb to get as high as possible giving a higher score. The camera/lava would keep climbing so blocks can be called out and add a challenge.

[Hangman] D-pad pop-up error

I was playing with my little sister and this pop-up showed: https://wolfyxon.github.io/3ds-web-stuff/games/hangman/hangman.js:154 TypeError: 'undefined' is not an object (evaluating 'e.key.toUpperCase')
occurs every time I use the d-pad.

[Jetfighter] addition of bombs, missles, and shield

Using the touch screen tapping the bottom right corner of the screen to change from the bullets that your already shooting to be bombs, and the middle right part of the screen would be to change to missles. the top right part of the screen would turn on and off the shield.

[Question] Fullscreen api

I was looking at what the browser can do and I saw that fullscreen functionality is doable and was wondering what it would look like when in use and what it does.

built in preview images

The abuility to view images of the game/app within the browser to see if it is worth while.

[homepage] missing jumpy in news

Jumpy is now a ? at the bottom of the news

Home page overscroll

When I scroll down then quickly back up with my finger/stylus the app/txt will scroll beyond the intended distance.
Also I managed to get around my schools restrictions so now I can share screenshots and maybe videos so heres a image of what I see.

[SUGGESTION] Google Maps

Since google maps doesn't work on 3ds browser why not make it functional.

[Jetfighter] pop-up error

I was checking out the new update and got this pop-up: https://Wolfyxon.github.io/3ds-web-stuff/games/jetfighter/jetfighter.js:173 NOT_FOUND_ERR: DOM Exception 8: An attempt was made to reference a Node in a context where it does not exist. But when I tapped continue the came continued as normal. Also the game thinks I am tapping the a button every frame.

spelling mistakes

in the home page one of the words that is ment to say tab is pab on the top screen and in the about page the word slso should be also.

[Pong] ball cliping

Sometimes when the ball hits the top and bottom walls the ball will clip into the walls and start zooming to the side it's facing giving a unfair point. Also when the ball hits a certain speed the ball will clip right through the paddles giving a unfair point aswell I think there should be a speed cap or a code rewright that would make the physics more accurate.

[ENHANCEMENT] automatically opening app/game in new tab

I realized that when apps/games are opened in a new tab the b button won't exit the page. Which would prevent users from accidentally exiting apps/games.

Homepage redesign

I think the home page should be redesigned, but since a lot of sites and apps like to redesign their whole UI which makes the community angry, I'll leave it up to you.

Do you think the home page should be redesigned? If yes, submit your ideas, drawings appreciated.
But don't go crazy with interactive parts or the performance might be terrible (especially on old 3DS).

[SUGGESTION]3d gun game

A 3d shooting game where the goal is to kill all the enemys and go to the exit. With all kinds of illusions, tricks, puzzles, and trolls to hold the player back. The controls would be D-pad up/down to move back and forth,
D-pad left/right to move the camera, a to shoot, and to changing wepons and open doors use the touch screen.
