How does your game meet GBJam's theme?
The game takes place in a SPOOKY graveyard. It's so gameboy-like you can even play it on a GBC, DMG or pocket!

Excellent job of highly polishing a project that is very limited in scope. The changing masks was really juicy!

Very interesting concept. I may have played for too long trying to get my luck up! Simple and polished, very well done.

I love it! Reminds me a bunch a Magic 8-ball, except you can change your luck 😂

I played it longer than expected ^^ Very nice experience! A memory of the "ball toy" of my childhood

Charming little game

This toy has a great atmosphere and does the spooky vibes just right. Great art too, and the music is simple yet very effective. I could definitely see myself playing this with friends on my GB back in the days and having a lot of fun. :)

This was such a relaxing and cozy little game (music obviously helps a lot too!), the way the theme was used and the fortune telling gameplay really is something not only unique, but super fun if you have 2 more friends around you! The easter egg too was really funny, simple yet something you do not expect... Overall you not only had a very nice idea but executed it perfectly, good job <3

finally, a gameboy app that can be used in real life situations

definitely one of the more unique entries! spooky in the "what if it is actually correct?" sort of way!

The graphics and sounds are unsettling in the most wonderful way. Seeing the fortune tellers mask change each time i asked a question was a nice touch -- adding to the spook factor. Truly a unique experience! :D

What a funky little game! From a GB Dev point - was impressed with the animations and style of the game. Not 100% sure what was going on most of the time, but it kept me hooked for 5 minutes!! Love the embed page too, very cool, as was the music. Great style.
