A proof of concept submission for the Game Boy Showdown .  The theme is TIME.

Couldn't make the game in "time" [lol] due to large scope of what I thought it would be.

RIPR is to show  a concept of "Out of Time" where the player is a Grim Reaper and they are tasked to locate 4-6 "bosses" who are constantly evading death and are out of time, hiding within planes of dimensions. But there is a looming doom in the background that if these individuals aren't put to their place in time, the world will end as we know it.

Note:

  • Assets used in this game are made from scratch and are HEAVILY BASED on the Zelda GBC series.
  • As this is a proof of concept [PoC] there's nothing much here aside from walking and time changing, also there's bugs, so pls keep that in mind.
  • Decided to make this a full game with different art style to diffirentiate it from Zelda. [5-31-22]

What are your intents with this proof of concept? Because there are great movements, mechanisms and colors in this. This could make for a great game. To me, in it's current state, it looks like a mashup of Zelda The Minish Cap and Mina the Hollower.

Keep up the great work, hope great assets like this will end up published in one way or another!

yeah i do plan to expand this set in the Featherless universe, but right now im too busy with other undisclosed games.

Great! With your inventivity and the quality of your works, it really makes me wonder what you’ll release next! 😊

even though it's just a demo, I already really love this game :) the movement feels super smooth and the art is amazing considering the fact you're limited to an 8 by 8 size. I do admit though I got without any idea how to progress, but I mean, it was still fun exploring all the buildings, so yeah anyways, this game is really cool :D (btw, there's a bug where if you dash into a door you keep all your speed and can just zoom across the map until you dash again)

yeah, there are no progress in this build, and i ave to change art style coz nintendo right? thanks for checking it out,!
