Magenta Blue Games

A dev log of my game creation

[blue-magenta]

I shrunk the character down from 32x32 to 24x24. And I’ve added my first enemy. Unfortunately just getting the enemy to walk in a simple left/right Koopa Trooper style pattern is taxing the limits of the gameboy. How did they program this thing? Why can’t I make a simple character just walk forward without such severe lag?

The limitations are killing me. Everything has been running fine until I tried to add an enemy. Suddenly the game slowed to a crawl and I used up 75% of my graphical budget. That’s with just one enemy.

I’m gonna have to shrink the art even further. I don’t know how much more I can though without losing some serious details.

An update to my Fairy Game.

Attack = K

I’m making a game in Gameboy Studio.

I’m still quite new to this but this is what I have so far. Background is a temp asset, but the fairy sprite is done by me.

Move = WASD

Jump = J

Hover = K
