    Brilliant marketing tbh, it’ll get people taking about a lot.

    I think releasing a marketing game like this in .gba format is great, it’s fairly accessible on non-GameBoy hardware and its more interesting than just a basic app/game for a company.

    I really want the 90’s to come back. I’m all for stuff like this.

    I’ve just spent 20 minutes playing this and ragequit on the third level. It’s entirely possible that it’s much easier to control on an actual Gameboy, but for keyboard it’s…challenging.

    Fun though.
