Loving the new update - there is so much awesome new content to enjoy! Congratulations on the release!
I'm so glad! Thanks so much :D
Tenes el archivo completo pra poder abrirlo desde unity o depende de la plataforma que lo hayas echo? si es asi podrias subrirlo porfavor te lo agradeceria bastante
Mi juego fue hecho en GB Studio. Una vez que actualice la demostración, puede descargar el archivo ROM y reproducirlo en cualquier emulador de PC o en el teléfono.
:)
Nicely done, N8. Whole package is engaging, adorable and intriguing. I'm glad I finally got my PC back online so I could try.
Cheers,
E-rock
I'm glad you did too! Thanks for the kind words, brother. I really appreciate it!
:D
Woah cool! I finally get to test it out. Very exciting. Will you make the ROM downloadable so I can play it on my emulator? It’s a little easier for me that way (For example, the controls are completely opposite of what I use and it makes it really hard)
Haha! Thanks dude! I'll be sure to add a downloadable ROM soon enough along with the next update. I have been testing out swapping the A + B buttons so it's more playable on a Game Boy. Hopefully that goes well without too much reworking. Thanks for playing!
really great game!
is it possible the finish the game or is it work in progress?
I'm currently stuck after bringing all the crow asked me, interacted with all the characters and trying all doors/caverns. I have no idea what is supposed to give me either crow song. I have all the to-do II checked...
Thanks very much for the comment and for playing! You're nearly there.
There is indeed an ending and maybe more to see after that! Did you check your quests after delivering the items? What does the Crow say when you talk now?
I don't want to say much more here, but I'd happily give some guidance over discord or instagram if you needed/wanted. :)
Just let me know!
Oh OK, I should have come back to the crow, thanks!
This is really well done, I like this kind of games and you made a great one!
