Overview
[EDIT (9/17/24): Another slightly updated build has been added to the booth. It's the exact same as the first updated build from the 14th, but the previous one had a broken ending screen, so I had to replace it with a hotfix that has the ending screen work again as intended. Also, just like before, it's only for Game Boy devices. There may be an exe and pocket build in the future, but I'm not making any promises.]
About
The demo contains 3 different types of levels (pictured in chronological order in the screenshots down below):
- A platformer level
- A boss level
- A shmup level

Where to Play
If you have a Game Boy emulator or a cartridge that lets you flash games onto it (or has you load ROMs onto an SD or Micro SD card), you can download the .gb ROM attached to this booth. If you have an Analogue Pocket, you can download the .pocket file and add it to your system. If you prefer not to download, you can play the game here on itch.io:

An executable build will hopefully be made available soon. As of September 6th (the first day of SAGE 2024), the site is having trouble with adding large files to booths, so it's unable to be added right now. If you're interested, click the watch button at the top to be informed as to if or when it gets added.
[Update: In the meantime, you can download it through the itch.io link up above (keep in mind that it's for Windows users only)]
