Castlevania Circle of the Moon - Gameboy Color (2022) Learning GBstudio but this time in colour!

A few months had passed since Jelly Bun was complete, feedback from that little project was great and I was happy that people enjoyed my work but at this point I wanted to learn more about what could be done on the gameboy, I started again with another idea I had rolling around my head for weeks and that was to recreate Circle of the Moon.

I felt it was possible at least as a basic level to feel similar to the GBA original so I went ahead and gave it a go.

COTM was a huge challenge mostly for making it feel correct, if Jelly Bun taught me about basic platforming then COTM taught me about how I should be handling attacking and taking damage while figuring out how the gameboy can do all that without slowing to a crawl.

This time around I also enabled GameBoy Color support in GBStudio, this allows both colour usage within the spec of the GBC but you gain some extra cpu power from the hardware improvements.

My goal was to remake the catacomb's beginning area as close I could.

The project grew a little larger over time with added rooms to explore so playing from start to end give you a few minutes of fun instead of a looping tech demo room, I also asked a good friend to remake the awake theme for the gameboy music chip to add to the authenic feeling of playing COTM downscaled to a GBC.

Shortly after the project was complete there was a GBStudio 3.1 update that added some new features and improvements whch sadly COTM does not use and is more of a show case for what the base 3.0 could do at the time.

Another reason for wanting to remake a game like COTM was due to interest in new game project I was approached to work on, you could say that this is the beginning of what's to come in 2023.

Castlevania Circle of the Moon GBC can be played over on itch.io in your browser or downloaded to play on real GameBoy Color hardware.

"I'm not the same as I was, as I shoulder the weight of the world"

fake poster for my sci-fi story ✨ I've been developing these characters and this world for more than half my life... almost 19 years at this point. I hope y'all can experience it for real one of these days :')

[emmienemms]

i've posted one of them before, but i wanna make a brief intro post of these guys! they're my primary focus when i'm not hyperfocused on splatoon lollll

these are the central characters for my sci-fi adventure story, Star Defender Auriga! they're 3 outcasts making money doing odd (sometimes illegal) jobs around the galaxy, who then get roped into a job with catastrophic consequences that they must figure out how to get under control

it's a major WIP but for the time being, here's a little bit abt each one!

Aurora Koeia (she/her, 16 yrs)

a bubbly, idealistic, and naive young lady with a dream of being the coolest heroine in the galaxy. has a strong distaste for galactic authority--called the Holo-Guard--and likes to cause trouble for them. pilot (and de facto leader) of the Auriga III spaceship.

(middle outfit is default!)

Charon Saros (he/they, 25 yrs)

a cold, reserved, and uptight child prodigy who puts on an unapproachable front to hide his insecurity and poor sense of self. he is also a holo-technician and cyber security expert, often using his skills to tamper with police technology--including the Holo-Guard themselves.

(right outfit is default!)

Astrid Solà (she/her, 31 yrs)

a suave, easygoing ladies' gal with a passion for pretty women and big guns. generally likes to go with the flow, but isn't above getting into trouble every now and then. as a professional weaponeer, she likes building, playing with, and sharing her extensive knowledge of guns of every kind. also aurora's biggest enabler.

(middle outfit is default!)

Bubs (she/her, timeless)

a peculiar creature who wandered onto the Auriga III one day and claimed it as her domain, and its crewmates as "hers." believed to belong to a rare species of alien that went extinct long ago, but details of said species are a mystery. mostly keeps to herself, but will demand pets and kisses on her own terms, usually by sitting all 23 lbs of herself on whoever she seeks affection from. can traverse dimensions at will.
