That's a great and original concept! I really enjoyed it. The music and art make for a perfect GB vibe. Some levels were hard for me but I still enjoyed it. Good job!

How does your game match the theme?
The bus is crowded and there is little space to move.

What a nice touch the theme and creative theme interpretation (5 stars for that) can do to a Sokoban-style game!

Above the SkyThis is the type of creativity that I came for in gbjam 11!
I really like the elbowing mechanic, and the puzzles were really fun.
So was the music. It was simple, but enjoyable :)
The only minor complaint that I could even think of, is the fact that sometimes it's hard to tell who you can elbow and not. Sure, most of them are kinda just made up of yellow, but still, it was kinda confusing.
Still, very nice game, and even better that it is on an actual gameboy!

Cyberspace WarpReally love the take on the theme as well as the soundtrack. Oddly soothing and fun game. Nicely done!

Deep Space Trucker 9I really enjoyed this take on the theme, and well done with the subtle clarity of which "obstacle" did what. I wish there were more stages, especially since it's clear you were thinking things through for each one (and the difficulty ramped up well), but that's down to the amount of time I guess.
Love it, nicely done!

Quiet Qu!tThis is a very clever and unexpected format for a puzzle game. Oddly addicting, too. I wasn't quite able to beat it, but I might give it a few more tries!
The graphics are adequate, but could have been a bit more polished without sacrificing fidelity to the classic medium.

Dagger's Last TestamentOutta my way, this is my stop!
I enjoyed the faithful graphics a lot; this really felt like a gameboy game.
Gameplay is contained, easy to learn, but you still need to think before every shove.
I liked the inclusion of different kinds of passengers, e.g. aggressive people. It really adds another level to the game.
All i could ask for is more levels!
Nice take on the theme, and a solid excecution!
