Dev Notes:

  • This is a proof-of-concept for a megaman-like gameplay, a lot of the game's features are experimental and are prone to breaking. You've been warned.
  • The difficulty slider and skip cutscene option aren't functional in this build.
  • You can play the game by opening the rom on a Gameboy Emulator or flashing it in a cart reader for a real Gameboy Color console [I recomend using MyOldBoy for Android and Visual Boy Advance for PC]
  • The lack of music is pretty much unavoidable due to time constraints and the fact that I'm not good with music in the first place.

this game is very fun and very well made I'm playing it on SAMEBOY Retroarch core on my iPhone 12 and it is running 120 fps constant only one thing is the sound or noise that plays when you get attacked can you change it to something less glitchy sounding also is there a github page for this game??

It's a fun game, but I had trouble with figuring out the roll. D +K didn't do anything when I tried it.
