Hey, didn't noticed that you did TamagoCity, the dev of Lorefolc (LowRezJam) is also here and submitted Shadow of the Titans , nice to see you, and nice game btw! ^^ i've already made a review of it on the main page!
Well, I think it's a design decision. It may not make it look like a gameboy game, but it makes it more fun. each one has their vision and captures it in the form of a video game. at least that's my opinion. the scores are to distinguish those sections.
Also happy to jam again with you and others. Munro (store galore dev) is also here and the developer of tiny tactics too. Take a look and comment me if you see people from the lowrezjam too ^^
