Sprite Jam - 2bit GameBoy Style (14-01-2010) (Winner announced)

[Arboris]

Not that it's not fun to see these multiple entries, but could say which one you're actually using for the compo? I'de rather keep it at one entry per person.

[Victor6]

My memory of Junktown is a little hazy...

[ThreeOhFour]

My memory of Junktown is a little hazy...

YES

I would never have thought of that, that's awesome

Nice entries everyone else, too!

[Jakerpot]

Ok, i have another one too (sorry, i will use my first one in the comp  :'( )

... Sure, why not? GUITAR HERO 5: GAME BOY VERSION



Plug in your guitar controller in the GB and have fun!

[Khris]

Damn Victor6, that's a great idea. And I know, because I had the same

A side note: while this isn't mentioned in the rules, there's no way the gameboy could manage 3D or even pseudo 3D. Most if not all games were tile based and consisted of three color sprites above a single background layer.

Awwww...

Okay, my Okami entry then. I might change my mind if I make a third one, we'll see.

[Jakerpot]

HA! I knew it was Okami. And the other one is luminess. Did someone liked my entries?

Does Faceball count?

Cool, a 3D game in gameboy... wait, this is not 3D, of course its a doom and castle wolfstein style, but it just like my mockup  If it was only possible (for me) to burn GB cartridges... I would try out my doom 3 project! (Hum...  ... ... ... ... No?  )

[Jakerpot]

Nice one Damien! 

I can't imagine any of these games (without lumines and junktown) in a GB 

[Eggie]

Am i the only person who thinks Fallout looks better as a Gameboy game?

[qptain Nemo]

Am i the only person who thinks Fallout looks better as a Gameboy game?

You're definitely not.

And btw I'm sooo loving the entries in this compo, you guys rock. Ico, Fallout and Nelly really cracked me up, and others as well made me smile.
Continue rocking!

COULD IT BE??




Select menu lets you select inventory items (as the dialog says) as well as to change characters when possible, (A) moves through dialogs and uses the currently selected item, (B) is used for other context-sensitive things.

I got a little bored at the end so the room isn't as detailed on the right side as the left but it was just for fun.

[Eggie]

How do you uncombine items?

[Jakerpot]

Maybe -> + B or B + A?? 

[Shane 'ProgZmax' Stevens]

The answer is simple:  There is no uncombining or combining of items in the game!  Welcome to the past!

[Evil]

Perhaps Portal of the Orange Box fame?





After drawing Chell, I realized she was quite tall, but I'm still happy. The game would be more like an adventure puzzle, arrows controlling movement/look, A as jump, B as shoot/interact, and select changes portal "color". The Aperture Science logo changes from dark to light, signifying what color portal, either light or dark, the gun will shot.

Great theme and great entries!

Wanted to try a non-stylized, messy/impressionistic approach to see what GameBoy is capable of, thus - "The Longest Journey" overpaint
