Start scene of my GBCompo23 entry 👁️🏫

Game starts like this:
Moki, a monster kid, suddenly wakes up and realizes he's almost late for school.

This will be a top down story driven RPG where your choices will matter.

I did not get enough time to do as much as I would, so this jam entry can be seen as chapter 1.

In my Game Boy Color game I have a maze generator I really like, and I wanted to have Maffi exploring some cyberspace world, but I didn't really have much in mind to do within the maze except for finding the exit.

I tried having some gameplay involving randomly appearing enemies that you attack by just shooting at them, but that didn't feel very fitting. So recently I got the idea to have her attack with paint and such, having it mark the ground and having that do things (currently slowing down enemies).

I feel like this has potential but I need to keep exploring it. I might just try and copy Splatoon's rollers or brushes haha. I know for a fact those are fun.

The platformer variety music asset pack in UGE format for Gameboy homebrews is coming out soon. Here's a preview of "Swimmy Soundscape" from "Large Ape Providence", if you know what I mean..

Even though I don't find Game Boy programming as difficult as I used to, there's still some parts that are really tricky and complicated for me, mostly in regards to graphics.

It feels like you primarily want to do graphical updates during horizontal blank (between scanlines) because its horizontal blanks are relatively big and its vertical blank is relatively small. But this means that tearing is something to worry about, and if you're using an interrupt to do mid-screen palette changes for some sort of effect then it may interfere with mid-screen palette changes done just to update the palette in general, like for a fade animation. So I have to be careful that the two kinds of palette changes don't overlap, whereas on SNES bulk palette changes would've just been DMA and the effects would've been HDMA and they would happen at separate times.

Made a ROM patch to run Fydo's Magic Tiles on the . It's a charming puzzle game by ohnotomsutton.

It's a fun puzzle game to play with unlockable achievements. The game is a good fit since OEM Mega Duck screen has bad motion blur and poor contrast.

bbbbbr.itch.io/megaduck-patch-

Fits on an inside_gadgets 32K megaduck flash cart.

Patch made available with permission from ohnotomsutton.

If you use an emulator the music is going to sound a bit off due to some emulation inaccuracies.

My (very rough) demo build for Purls of Magic, my game, is live!

Unfinished notes are on the page, noting what bits are still a mess - give it a go if you like 😊

Sneaking in bits of gamedev anywhere I can this week.

Hoping to have a demo out for folks to try on the weekend, then back to working on everything else in the backend!

This is how the scene above ☝️ actually looks in

🔴 Red squares are walls
🟧 Orange squares are triggers
💬 Bubble chats are hidden sprites on runtime that I use to trigger dialogs on player interaction

Plugging in the WIP music tracks for Purls of Magic (my game) and they're so cute and perfect! I'm so lucky to have @nash collaborating with me for the audio experience 🎶

Hope to have a short playable demo out soon 👀

Start scene of my jam

This is Monster Kid's room as you may guess

Monster family recently moved into Town so they still need to unpack their stuff all around in the Monster house 🏡

As assets need to be uploaded with default colors palette, I decided to use them by default in

I will certainly change the color palette to the initial Pink Brown one or a purple one once I dive into the engine

I made a small mockup for jam

A top down RPG where you'd play a monster kid that must wear a cardboard on his head so that he can attend school classes

I hope I'll have enough time to finish it..🤞😅
