FrozenLake (talk | contribs) Attempted to add maintained status to list. Uncertain as to what is actually maintained, as 3DS homebrew development is rather slow when it comes to updates. I know for certain that some cases are not maintained, though (such as the cases where Cruel was the person in control of the branch.) |
Update links and add citro2d |
