This is a one-level demo for Lead Kid, my upcoming fast precision platformer on the Game Boy. Planning for the full game to release in 2025 and include 6 levels and multiple save files. It’s open source, so please let me know of any issues, and I hope you enjoy.

Fun little game with tight, satisfying controls, great music, and a “less is more” design philosophy that I always love to see

Good work. Became insanely addictive as soon as I figured it out

As always, great work. Haunting, thrilling, mysterious, and shows how limited hardware can actually enhance an experience

This might genuinely be my favorite game of the year so far

Really unique and fun!

Bit Bang

I just released my first real game, Bit Bang. It’s a small solo-developed Game Boy homebrew puzzle game. The goal is to make the requested numbers in binary with simple operations. It features 64 (|……) puzzles and an Assist Mode for people who need it, and it’s open source. Feedback is appreciated.

As a fan of the whole pirate aesthetic and rhythm games, this is a fun demo, and a nice twist on an adventure RPG. The concept is inventive, the dialogue is witty, and the mechanics are taught in a way that feels natural. Looking forward to the full game.

If I had one criticism, the in-game font is really hard to read. This is a 160x144 screen, after all. The splash screen has a more readable font, so please consider at least having an option to switch to that one.

And I’ve never used GB Studio before, so I don’t know how hard these are to implement, but I also encourage QOL improvements like diagonal movement and using stairs from any side.
