With the newly released Analogue Pocket, and the newest update for GB Studios, are you planning to publish the .pocket version of this game? I’d love to be able to play this on my Pocket, so I hope so!
The creators of the pocket want to make that token effort of not being associated with piracy so have taken some minimal steps to make sure that you cannot load roms. But they have also partnered with GB Studio to make a workaround with games created with GB Studio. So here we are.
Unfortunately since this is just a small project I have no plans to port it to the pocket format. If you want to play it on a pocket I think you'll have to get an EZ Flash JR but it sounds like you'd need that anyways.
What you say is true if you make a game with GB Studio 3. It just came out within the last week though. All of the GB Studio games that have been created so far were on version 1 or 2 so the porting would be migrating to the new version which is a pretty big task.
Highlight for me was the creepy character design - from looking at your art it looks like this is your specialty! Overall though, great work from your whole team: music, dialogue, story, art. I replayed to see if I could get a 2nd ending at the end by not shooting, alas no. In round 2 I was speed running and somehow initiated a bug where I teleported behind the log without the chainsaw, and could not progress - not sure if this is something that can be fixed. Anyway, looking forward to more games from you.
I decided to do an abandoned radio tower in this game because it was originally done for a game jam called 'ScreamFM' and the theme was a 'signal' The main inspiration was a radio tower at the edge of the woods that I used to explore when I was a kid. I'm not surprised that old radio towers have been used in other horror games. They are imposing shapes!
Had a ton of fun playing through this one. I really enjoyed the simplicity and different characters of the game. The twist at the end, while not making me feel bad in any way, did catch me off-guard. I wish there was more because I really wanna know more about the 'transformation' stuff. Here's my playthrough if interested:
So I can definitively say that there is only one ending. I made it to the end without killing anything, but then I had no choice but to fire as it's a guaranteed death. The game is fun, but the message is kind of strange seeing as we the players had literally no choice but to defend ourselves.
Not long. I think that it took me about 10 minutes of just waiting for the rats to move around and make a safe path. Their random patterns made it a pain.
I had a blast with this all the way through! The game got a real nice adventure-game feel to it, with a twist of psychological thriller that hit the spot perfectly! And that ending.. Hah! Wow!!
I really wish it was a lot longer tho.. Maybe make another chapter to the story?

Hello,
With the newly released Analogue Pocket, and the newest update for GB Studios, are you planning to publish the .pocket version of this game? I’d love to be able to play this on my Pocket, so I hope so!
I would think for $200 the pocket could run a gb rom? Why does it need a special format?
Piracy

Is porting required? GBStudio devs said you just need to export for pocket instead of for gb

Can you build this for Analogue Pocket?
Nicee Game! Was really fun!!!:)
Hey, I'm looking for a new horror game to play, but I don't do well with jumpscares- does this have any?
Not really... It has some disturbing imagery with music but no sudden loud noises.
HOLY SHIT THIS GAME WAS A BANGER :)))))
Thanks! Glad you liked it.

I've got a few other games here on my itch page if you didnt see them yet. (Various levels of quality, haha) https://benjelter.itch.io/
Glad you liked it! I'll look for the bug you mentioned.
Poggers
So I see why some one said Outlast the comparsion is to the second one with the tower.

Really nice and unique game, you got the inspiration from outlast tho, right?
I've never played outlast. Out of curiosity, what are the similarities?
I love this game, is there a follow up i haven't found yet? If not please make one, or update this game
This is all I've got so far but i am working on another much larger game called 'The Machine' so stay tuned :)
Loved this, feels like Twin Peaks, the GBC game.
Hey how did you get that color in GB Studio?
I'm not sure which color you mean but gbstudio 2.0 has basically got support for full color with a few technical limitations.
Thank you so much. I love your game. I was using the old GBStudio version
I think they will release an even newer version soon! 3.0!
It's just around the corner.
Been playing with the Alpha of 3 from his GitHub, its great! now I can have more animation frames in my sprites!
i got curious to know more about what is going on in that trailer park, great game
This was great! Like a small-scale Silent Hill.

Thanks for making games!I've enjoyed this throughly!
love the music
Very creepy, with great music 👍
satisfying to get the shooting down. But I would have liked to turn delivery guy into a possum to.
Cool game.
THERE SHOULD BE A PT 2!
OH THAT WAS FRIKIN AWESOME DUDE! I LOVE THIS!
very nice!!<3
that was a great game fairly easy but fun
damn what a cheap game cant even play
Very Well built game
I like it. 10/10amazing game !! only one ending tho which is sad.. i wish it was longer :(
would 100% pay for another chapter tbh
it feels just like a gameboy, but i wish it was a bit longer, it had a great stor
this art style is insanely good
really col game, but the end was kind of sad, ngl
it doenst work
great game!!! It was for me like playing again with my old game boy! THIS IS my Italian gameplay, first Italian gameplay on youtube
i cant do it

damn, how long did you play for to confirm that
Not long. I think that it took me about 10 minutes of just waiting for the rats to move around and make a safe path. Their random patterns made it a pain.
10 minutes?
thats long, for me atleast, i dont have much patience in single player games, but im really good in multiplayer games
Nice game
I had a blast with this all the way through! The game got a real nice adventure-game feel to it, with a twist of psychological thriller that hit the spot perfectly! And that ending.. Hah! Wow!!

...the backroom...
Wild. Very cool!
