This is really fun! The art is gorgeous and the combat is fun once I got the hang of the shield. I had some minor graphic bugs/slowdown on GBC, maybe something to do with the sprite limit? Really loved it though
nice I’m glad you enjoyed it. I have run in to some minor slowdowns in the past when there are a lot of projectiles on the screen, such as the slug boss fight or the boar hunter.
I really like this game, it's the best indie GB game I've played. The graphics is great, and I love the combat.
Thanks, there are a lot of a lot of fun gb games out there. I personally really liked Wink. You should check that one out if you still need your GB fix. :)
Wow that was amazing! I love it a lot!
Thanks, Glad you enjoyed it.
This is great! I love the graphics and animation! :D
Ey, thanks. :D.
Visually on of the most impressive entries to the competition. Also really fun to play.
Thanks, Glad you like it :D
Is this game backwards compatible with the DMG?
What you mean? aha I am not sure.
Meaning can it be played on an original Game Boy via an EverDrive, or is it Game Boy Color only?
I believe you can play on original GB just have to change the file from .GBC to .GB Mind you some of the backgrounds will look weird since I had to do some weird tile sets to make the colour look good.
Thanks :
Ty :D
Nice game
Glad you like it :)
Thanks. :)
there are some collision issues but the graphics are just *so* beautiful
Thanks, I put a lot of effort into the Graphics :). Hopefully in the submitted build some of the collision issues will be fixed.
I like it! Collisions seems a bit janky, but that's always been a major challenge/limitation with GB Studio.
Glad ya like it :). Yeah, I am in the process of fixing some of the jank. Hopefully it helps. :)
Good luck! I didn't mean that as a knock on your game specifically, it's the hardest part of action games in the GB studio betas IMO.
Love the look of it, hope to see more :)
Yeah no worries. :) I agree, 2.0 is slightly limiting on the action front but it's far superior to 1.0 ahaha.
The game seems great! Is the area and enemies supposed to be random? I seem to keep getting the same background and the same enemy (Rock Worm) on all the levels I progress to..
And.... I hate playing in the browser, it always seem to lag at random moments for me... I would love to play some more of this if you upload the rom?
Thanks, the encounters are supposed to be random you may have gotten a unlucky seed or something. lol
I will be posting the rom shortly I still need to add some; music credits and cutscenes.
This Game is Great!!
Thanks, Glad you like it :)
