Doing a quest is all well and good but if they don't acknowledge it...did you even really do it? Let's remedy that by making the game track our heroic deeds properly! gbstudiocentral.com/tips/lets-bu... #gameboy #gbstudio #gamedev

My Friendly Little Island made it onto the cover of GB Studio Magazine 🤩 @metagamemike.bsky.social Thanks so much for including my little game in the stunning artwork 🧡 Making a spaceship design out of palm trees for the player character is such a brilliant idea! (+ hat ship for Kero Kero) 🤯

It made sense during GB Studio's earlier versions, since you could argue that 8x16 could do most of the same things that 8x8 could, and it would provide some CPU savings back when the overhead was higher. But with a more powerful Sprite Editor and a more optimized engine, it's nice to have.

GB Studio Central @gbstudiocentral.com · 19/03/2026
Less VRAM usage, bespoke palette applications, reusing tiles. Why there's quite a lot to gain from switching to 8x8 sprite mode! gbstudiocentral.com/tips/how-to-... #gameboy #gbstudio #gamedev

Diving into the depths of @itch.io should be an Olympic sport. The Hollowed Patient is a cute little Game Boy Color game with J-horror vibes. I talk about it over on @gbstudiocentral.com gbstudiocentral.com/spotlight/sp...

Horror games were few and far between in the Game Boy's hey day, which means games like The Hollowed Patient can fill that hole. (You could say it was even made for them). gbstudiocentral.com/spotlight/sp... #gameboy #gbstudio #gamedev

We've written some articles on Super Game Boy features. GB Printer is easier now with built in events. GBA mode isn't really a thing, you can use the "If GBA Mode Is Available" event to detect if the game is being played on a GBA to unlock special features in your game or adjust the palette.
