Just played the demo for this game and it's amazing! I love colorful, cozy simple games like this. And it made me feel very inspired for what I want to do myself now. If you like games like Kirby, I highly recommend this one

I hope the Planetary Parade tonight doesn't trigger a Monster Moon. Maybe that only happens in my Gameboy game Sofia the Witch Curse of the Monster Moon. I've been informed that the standard edition has shipped so anyone who order that version should be getting it very soon. #astrology #gameboy

What's happening here is I'm testing out scoring and saved hi-scores. for my Gameboy Cute'em Up, I Want Candy. I'm also tracking collectables to access a mini game, seeing if players collect 5 peppermint candies. Temp backgrounds from Sofia the Witch. #gameboy #gbstudio #candy #indiegame

A new work in progress video for my Gameboy Cute'em Up. I Want Candy. I now have a working HUD. It took some work getting a vertical score to work in GBStudio. But I think its working pretty nicely. #gameboy #nintendo #gbstudio #cute #gamedev #pixelart #candy

I Want Candy update, my Gameboy cute 'em up. Enemies drop different candy based on waves. The enemies have different states that I can control so I can recycle enemies without them feeling too much like a copy paste. The next step is to build some real levels. #gameboy #indiegame #schmup #gbstudio

Ice makes it tricky to control yourself, but it also increases your top run speed a little! 🧊 Also, the Kickstarter WOULD have ended today, but we got a 1 week extension! There's still a few days left to support Kero Kero Cowboy & get sweet rewards: kck.st/4fHvWUA #gbstudio #gameboy #gbc
