A little Match 3 game I made with GB Studio's new arrays (in just a few days!). No matches on falling tiles yet, but I'll probably add those later on. #gbstudio #gbc #gameboycolor (No worries, I'm still working on Hungry Huey ;-))

Just listened to it while I was making dinner, very cool to hear other people talking about the game. Thanks for covering it!

Thank you for playing. 🙏 I recently found someone to collab on sound so yes, the final game will have music for sure!

The site has been extremely slow or inaccessible for 3 days straight, this could have been communicated earlier. For creators, this is an important source of their income!

🍲 New menu cooking! (And yes, this is all running on Game Boy color hardware :-))

A new version of the Hungry Huey demo is out, including 5 digit scores and an option to "cancel your slime". Go try it out now! nielsderijk.itch.io/hungry-huey

OK then, new menu. 🙂 Happy with how it gives the game a bit more charm, the old menu was just too plain for me. If you guys have any feedback (on thumbnails, options, copy), let me know! #gbstudio #gameboy #gameboycolor #gbc

WIP title screen! I have been fighting sprite limitations for over a day, but hey, in the end I got all the colors I wanted! :-) #gbstudio #gameboy

They are actually stabilizing today. I would never use time adverbs in headlines, as today is tomorrow’s yesterday. ;-)

Couldn't agree more. Even people with jobs – including a friend of mine – cannot afford to buy or rent a home here in The Netherlands. Local authorities are even kicking people out if they (temporarily) stay at a recreation home.

Timing couldn't be better! :-) I am making a Game Boy Color game called "Hungry Huey". It's a combination between Zoo Keeper and Snake. #gbstudio #gameboy

Definitely. A digital release would mean an instant buy for me. I’m sorry for your loss!

Just learned about Jeremia and his unexpected death.🥲 Will there ever be a playable ROM? His game looks really awesome.

I did not know he died last year. 🥲 Such a talented dude.

Good on you man. Welcome back!

NielsNL @nielsderijk.itch.io · 22/01/2025
Not yet! There’ll be an Itch page for sure, but I want to finish some essentials first (like a title screen, tutorial and possibly bg music :)). I really want this to be as good as it can get.

First attempt on a Result screen for Hungry Huey! You can input your name when you ranked 9th or higher. Love to hear your feedback (if you have any)! #gbstudio #HungryHuey

Just finished some stuff I wanted to add during the holidays: ✓ Popping a bubble now clears a random color on the field ✓ Letting a stone break at the bottom row of the field now refills your satiation bar ✓ You can now pick a random “lucky” color for double points (every 5th level)

Thank you! It’ll be GBC only for sure as I need double VRAM / +128 unique tiles on the screen.

NielsNL @nielsderijk.itch.io · 13/12/2024
Amazing you achieved this with only 3 (or is it 4?) colors!

NielsNL @nielsderijk.itch.io · 11/12/2024
Good luck Mike! I backed your game the first day, the first levels look very promising. @nintendolife.com should write about Kero Kero too!

NielsNL @nielsderijk.itch.io · 11/12/2024
I kept watching the first video, you can really go creative with manipulating the beat. The second game is neat but less original maybe?

Have been busy polishing my GBC game over the past few weeks! Points are added now (longer slimes = more points!), and thanks to sub maps, the field is updating much quicker. :) Also happy with the Retry/Quit menu, it turned out to be a huge time saver during testing! #gbstudio #gbc #gameboy

Work in progress menu! The slimes in the background need to animate a bit better, but I'm happy with the palette switches and parallax waves. #gbstudio #gameboy #hungryhuey

Working on something new for Game Boy Color! 😊 "Hungry Huey" is a combination between Snake and Zoo Keeper — the players mission is to fight Huey's insatiable hunger for slimes! #gbstudio #gameboy #gbc #gamedev #pixelart
