Bad news for Ez-Launcher.

XenoslyceCreated:
As some of you might know, I've been working on a program called "Ez-Launcher", hacking away at it when convenient. It helped me understand how to code better, and development has been going great...
Until last week, when I managed to lose the microSD card holding all my games, files, and saves for my 3DS, including the ones for Ez-Launcher 2.0. I've been looking for it ever since, and after about a week of searching, I have come to the sad conclusion that it is officially lost.
This means that Ez-Launcher 2.0 is currently impossible to work on/release for SmileBASIC.
Here's more information:
Why should I even care about this?
You don't have to. Ez-Launcher was a small project that I was working on since last year to refine my skills. I just thought it'd be nice to let the few who were expecting progress on it know of its current fate.
What will happen to Ez-Launcher?
As of now, I have no definite plan of action. A few possibilities are starting over from scratch, abandoning it in its entirety, or picking up from the last available build (1.1, thanks to 12me21's mirror) and releasing ports for other programming languages.
Ports? Tell me more.
I'm currently not comfortable discussing publicly a port for Ez-Launcher, as I plan to keep any progress/information of a official port secret until I'm able to call it usable. As of now, no progress of a port has been made however, but any future progress will be kept private until I'm comfortable talking about it.
Will you ever release any new programs in the SmileBASIC community?
Currently, it's impossible to even start progress on any, as I don't know what I'll be using to run SmileBASIC. Using Citra is a possible solution, but I haven't figured out if I would be able to extract program .txt files from it to post on SmileBASIC Source/have mirrored by members of the community. However, I have my fingers crossed on coming back with the Switch version, so I'm bound to be more active once that comes out.
....So where's your shameless self-plug?
I've been inactive mostly because I've been working on outside projects, like a upcoming EP set for release in Summer 2019, and a book. I'll try to give updates on those on my Twitter account, @Xenoslyce.
I guess that's it for now. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask them by replying.
