Hello, everyone!

My name is Blaine Locklair. I have a YouTube channel with over 160,000 subscribers dedicated to game system modding and emulation.

I am in need of help with creating a Vita game. I currently offer a game of my own creation (along with the incredible Robert Doman's help) , called Raven’s Core, as a “Freebie” on my website for visitors that sign up for my newsletter. However, Raven’s Core was written using GB Studio for the original Game Boy & Color. As most of my audience is centered around Sony system gaming, and not the Game Boy, it’s not the best fit for this purpose.

I’m looking to get help with creating a fixed screen shooter game for the Vita. Something along the lines of Galaga / Galaxian, the tried and true “drop from the top” dive bombing ships against the horizontally moving player ship at the bottom. Single screens with increasing difficulty as the levels progress. If you've ever play Chillaxians, it's a great model for something like this with a retro vibe.

This would need to be in .vpk format for home-brew-enabled PS Vita and PSTV systems.

If you'd be interested in discussing this opportunity, please feel free to get in touch here or at blaine at blainelocklair dot com.

Thanks! Looking forward to connecting with you.

It's here! Today is the day I get to share with you the brand new game I've made: Raven's Core for Game Boy and Game Boy Color.

This itch.io exclusive bundle includes something not found anywhere else: the complete GB Studio project! When this game was being developed, it became clear that it was something special in the GB Studio scene. I found that it became a unique opportunity for those wanting to build their own shmup game to have a complete framework to work from. So I decided early on to share the complete project with the Itch and GB Studio communities to empower you to learn from what's here and use the framework for your own current and future builds.

So when the alien invaders known as RAVEN entered Terran space, it was time to act.

Armed with the most advanced spaceship ever built, you stand between Earth and the RAVEN onslaught.

Do you have what it takes to attack RAVEN on its own turf, destroy its central core, and bring peace to the Earth - and the galaxy?

This game features:

* Eight stages of side-scrolling shmup gameplay

* Four boss battles and a final boss battle at the core

* All original music soundtrack

* High score save system

* Continue feature, even after power off

* Parallax scrolling in stage backgrounds

* Integrated storyline

* Compatibility with the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Gameboy Advance, * Super Game Boy (SNES), Game Boy Player (GameCube) Game Boy / Game Boy Color emulation, and the Analogue Pocket

I hope you enjoy playing the game as much as the team and I enjoyed making it for you! Let me know what you think of the game in the comments!

Thank you for supporting homebrew gaming and the retro gaming scene!

Special thanks to fellow Itch member Robert Doman for his help with this project. It wouldn't have been possible without his support.
