Share any comments around the game. Good or bad, as long as they are constructive and give me feedback to become a better developer they are always welcomed! What did you like? What you did not like? What was really cryptic and did not understand?

Will read every single one of them! For glory!

I have a question about the 3DS cia file. Will it show up as a GB virtual console game?

Developer

Yes it does! Save state enabled (although not recommended), 3D game boy if holding start before selecting the game and color swap (from gray to green) by holding L+R and Y.

Glory Hunter was a game that was a long-awaited release, and I have not stopped playing it since I bought it.  It was also the first homebrew ROM that I was willing to pay for the full release.  Most of my grips are small and likely due to the limitations of GBstudio.  I do wonder if there is any guide, walkthrough, or a Discord server.  I am stuck on a dungeon puzzle and was hoping to find an answer.  Thank you so much for this wonderful game.

Hi there! You fill my heart with happiness with this comment! Thank you so much for your purchase, it helps more than you think! I hope you continue to enjoy it for many hours and keep discovering things in it!

While there were hardware limits creating the game, to tell you the truth there were others that were programming skills lacking on my part, but hopefully those rough edges won't get too much in the way to enjoy the game completely.

Here is a discord link if you want to join, sadly there is no guide at the moment but I will gladly answer all questions in there. Have a great hunting and thanks again! Cheers!

This is a very well-designed game and I've enjoyed puzzling my way through it! Great OST and graphics too! Was very surprised when the OST had both game file and remixed versions! Lots of love went into this, and it shows! Thank you!

Developer

Thank you for giving it a chance, good to hear you enjoyed it! Your support and your words mean the world to us trying to open a way into game development. Thank you for sharing and for those amazing words. May glory find you every step you take, always!

Your welcome! Only slight suggestion would be if each of the god battles were different. I really have no complaints!

Developer

Hey there! Yeah, I envisioned each god having 2 or 3 different attack patterns but here is what happened: 

I was running out of time (development already extended for an extra year and I started to generate debts and frustrations lol), and the cart's memory was almost at its top (cannot surpass 4 megabytes for a GB project) so I decided to "hit two birds with one stone" and what I did was having the same programming and background with only the God's faces sprites changing, as well as some (very little) dialogue. This saved a lot of space in memory and in sanity ha ha ha.

Did you get the fifth god though? I went full nuts on that one. Once the first 4 are cleared go back to where the game starts and go inside the ruins around there for the "real" ending.

Thank you for the feedback, It has been noted and taken for the future! Cheers!

Two down, two to go, then the final boss! Thanks for giving me even more to look forward to!
