Hey Ricardo! 
Sorry about that. How have you been trying to contact me?

Email: brandon@saltandpixel.com
Discord: saltandpixel

That's what I use. Does it do that every time you play?  Maybe try clearing your save.

Hey!
I think this happens with emulation. For one user, it fixed when they updated their firmware.
What kind of hardware are you using?

There will be boxes. I held a pre-order in OCT. '23 for physicals and ordered a few extra PCBs (small window to get a physical game).
I'll also hold another pre-order later in the year. Make sure to be on my mailing list to get first dibs: https://zc.vg/hrVkA

Me! 

Hey! Thanks for sharing. This often pops up on emulators. I recommend using mGBA (https://mgba.io/)

It has something to do with the emulator trying to mimicking the GBC Hardware CPU. 

If this shows up on hardware, I'll need to what was happening before this popped up.

Just letting you know I sent out an email with the .pocket file. 

Yeah! I can do that!

Time to build that custom Game Boy.

Correct! There are a couple of ways to get the game on hardware. 

• One method I use is an EZ-Flash JR. There is also the Everdrive GB X3.
• With a cart reader/writer  (https://shop.insidegadgets.com/product/gbxcart-rw/) and rewritable cart: https://shop.insidegadgets.com/product/gameboy-2mb-32kb-fram-flash-cart-ultra-lo...
• It works on handheld emulators too. I have an Anbernic. There is also Chromatic and Analogue Pocket, but I don't have either of those to test on. There is also FPGA emulation, which I'm not too familiar with. 

If you wanted to play on PC

• You can use emulation. I recommend https://mgba.io/ (Quickest way)
• If I ever figure out how to package into exe, that could be an option too.

You are welcome! Enjoy!

Certain emulation will crash the game. It's hard to pinpoint which ones will cause it. Sometimes a firmware update will fix the issues. Certain emulators are poorly coded or something. Those kernal panic screens pop up a lot with emulators. 

Thanks.
How are you playing it? emulator, flash card?
What stage were you on when this happened?

Nice! 

It's better just to make it optional. It allows me to ignore the opinions on it lol.

Thanks. My next update will be for some basic options and maybe controller support. 

Thank you! I'm going to focus on some art updates this weekend.

There are people who better understand retro FX than me. - This video should give you a better clue to what is going on: 

In retro development, everything is done manually. But I use GBStudio which has the fade built in.

In modern development, you will probably have to recreate this manually as well. Shifting each color closer to black from .25 to .5 seconds each "tick". There probably a billions ways to do this. Mostly likely, someone has already made a shader that can mimic it.  

Not quite sure what you mean. Screen transition fades have a speed setting.

Yeah! - Join the discord: https://discord.gg/gr9WRcuxJS

Nice!

Do you remember what part of the game you were on?

Dang. Thought I fixed that. Thank you.

Ah yeah!

Thank you for sending this. 

No,yes,and no. It's a sketch/photo collage I made, ran through AI to help with the 80s/90s cover feel, then more photoshop/clean up and texturing.

  

Preorder it:https://ko-fi.com/s/fb2ded6ae5

You can preorder the rom here: https://ko-fi.com/s/fb2ded6ae5
But I'm considering releasing the game as "early access" soon. I just need to tidy up some things before I get into polishing the game. But otherwise I'm hoping for a December release. 

For sure is subjective and relative to the system. Strafe shooting is really hard to make on a system like this, because the processing speed is very slow. Everything is on a que and has to complete before the next can go. You may notice when shooting (in strafe) once all the bullets are destroyed, the player unlocks.  

I liked Ruiner very much. Thank you.

That's good to know. I feel like web is bit underrated, when it come to playing games. It's perfect for games like these. I wish someone would release a case that doubles as a controller. 

Thank you

Thank you. I'm going to upload a fix for the boss, eventually. Enemy sprites on the other hand, have a collision issue that's hard to fix.

I'd have to reupload the game with a new control scheme. I think a controller will work with the web version too. The best way to play it is on hand held, followed by emulator.

Thank you very much. I'm going to make a note of enemy patterns. Might interesting to have some extra movement or combined mixture of current movements. 

Noted. Thank you!

Is while using the web browser?

1.Its a game boy game. You only get 2 buttons and a D-pad.

2.The 2 chasing enemies in the game are the same type.

3.Hard to disagree with that.
