All the best for a speedy recovery!

Self Simulated is so full of glitches,... some walls just doesn't work at all!

Weird what you can find there. Like this robot, which seems to be a bit lost 🤖

Featuring @joelj.bsky.social "Fall From Space", a non-linear, sci-fi ARPG for the Gameboy.

Self Simulated - A New Game Boy Color Game by 2nd Law Games Self Simulated is a fast-paced action platformer for the original Game Boy Color

Along with @2ndlawgames.bsky.social we thought it’d be fun to put little cameos in our games—with us both having amnesiac robotic protagonists.

Anyway, check out Self Simulated, a lot of love & hard work has gone into this game, there’s a great demo and it's now fully released! selfsimulated.com

You never really know who you’re going to bump into in the shady back alleys of Terra Mächina.

...I’m sure I recognise this robot from somewhere?

My soft spot forever lies with this guy

Can't wait to play this. Also, love the box art!

A game logo that says FCP which stands for First Contact protocol. There are six screenshots of a gameboy game behind the logo. They all portray various sci-fi scenarios between crew members on a spaceship. One is a map of the ship.

I've been secretly working on a new game that just dropped and you can order it today!

It's a story focused puzzle exploration game that takes place on an interstellar spaceship.

Excellent, although I can't see that staying like that for long! *hits RT*

Very cool, thanks for doing this! Here's a screenshot from the upcoming #GameBoy RPG Fall from Space! Hoping to have it finished later this year. joelj.itch.io/fall-from-sp...

This would be incredibly useful!

Moonwalking from the bedroom, vaulting the bannister and firing finger pistols at the C64 🔥

With the majority of the Fall from Space RPG, story and various endings in place now I'm currently working on action levels. Here's a preview of the new 'look ahead' camera which should help with some of the trickier jumps.

Love the big sprites, looks great

I can now tick off 'add bouncy mushrooms' from the list.

I managed to shave 40k off the Fall from Space ROM size by rewriting a single custom script (responsible for displaying location names), that’s a good amount of additional content that can be fit in.

A reminder of just how much space code takes up!

Oof. That's certainly some rough GIF compression Bluesky!

Currently working on a village on the planet of Urthona, to house the tiny, chasable locals (which also required a mini font creating for them to speak in).

That was a great selection!
