i made a free, open source, web-based chip’s challenge (1+2) emulator a bit ago

features include:

  • works both on a computer and on a phone…  more or less
  • comes with ~800 community levels, plus it can load levels in any format (including from the commercial games, either the classic version or the ones on Steam)
  • built-in level editor where you can make your own levels and share them with just a link
  • totally original art, sounds, and music, though you can load in the classic tileset if you really want to
  • undo and rewind
  • now you are a fox solving puzzles for fun, instead of bill gates being kind of weird about a girl
  • a couple tiny emulation bugs still, oh well

ah i changed my avatar so of course tumblr stripped all the links from my blog description. glad to see that classic tumblr experience hasn’t changed

hey i don’t pay much attention to tumblr these days, but fyi i’m making Star Anise Chronicles: Cheezball Rising, a game for the game boy color! slowly. it’s hard.

source code is available, along with occasional builds of the game, which you can play in (hopefully) any game boy emulator — or on real hardware!

you can also get builds a week early for $4 on patreon, which will become more interesting once the player can actually interact with anything, ahem

also i’ve been writing up the entire process in gratuitous detail, if retro homebrew is the sort of thing you’re interested in, or even if you just want to gawk at how incredibly cumbersome it is to make an 8-bit game

happy birthday mewtwo 🎈 i wish anise had a carrying handle i did this in like two minutes and didn’t bother to look up what mewtwo looks like oops
