It's really cool that you found a way to use Lua for this, I wasn't aware of the BPCore-Engine before this entry came in. Enjoyed it a lot! My highest score so far is 462 :)

Developer (1 edit)

Woaw, 462 points is an incredible highscore!
Are you some kind of Jedi who can see the near future? ;)

More seriously, congratulations, I'm not sure wether anyone will be able to top 462 points!

And BPCore-Engine is a really great engine (its author Evan Bowman also submitted the game Skylands for this jam, a very impressive entry), I honestly think this is the most "newcomers friendly" way to make GBA games. It's also very fast to compile new roms so it's a breeze to make fine tuning on the gameplay.

Hahaha, the truth is that I was totally zoned out when I got that score. When I tried hard, I did way worse :')

Nice one!

As hippydave said, it makes you try again and again.

Developer

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'm really happy to see some fellow developers try to beat the highscore!

Fun little game! Simple but keeps tempting you back to try and beat the high score.


Speaking of which:

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

And congrats on your record, this is really impressive, especially on a GBMicro! (I mean, with the smaller screen it should be harder than on the SP!). Nice Yoshi faceplate by-the-way :)

Thanks! This was my first very rough attempt at a custom faceplate, I need to do it again properly - for one, cover the print so it doesn't rub off around the controls!
