So, you have some sprite masking as well here, when she's looking through the window... In curious if there is a way to do it straight in GB Studio?

EDIT - Wrong page, sorry! Will post this question in the right place.

Developer

I'm not quite sure what you mean... 

If you mean the 3 different scenes in the (admittedly square) thought bubbles, I ended up just making 3 copies of the background and changing the content inside the thought bubble for each. They're 3 different scenes under the hood.

If it's something else, I'll do my best to answer after a clarification!

Unless this was meant for the Rose's Peanut comments, I just remembered there's a window in that one.

It looks very cool. I wish I could play it today!

Developer

Thanks so much! I'm a little tempted to start yet another new project...

Wow I would LOVE to play this! So cool that you included actual game-play in the intro too! And really awesome spritework!

Thanks for the kind words! Scripting the little interaction between the player and the crab enemy was the most finicky part, but it worked out well! 

Really delightful feeling from this! I really want to play it....

Really nice pixel art and super cute too

I think the first scene starts out really slow but otherwise it’s enticing

Thanks for the feedback!

Yeah, you're right about the opening dragging a little. After I made and added my music, I couldn't figure out how to change its playback speed, so I retimed the easiest thing in my intro to make it fit. ;p

You can use the F0X command in the effect column to change the speed of your music 😀

Fore example F01 is extremely fast and F05 is slower

Ah, thanks for the info! I was using the F commands, but not the low numbers. I was experimenting between F80 and F99 or so, seemed to be changing my tempo in the tracker but not GBStudio.
