Factory Danger is a platform game for the Game Boy made with the ZGB Engine.
Reach the goal on each level while dodging enemies, performing some sick moves and wall-jumps and collecting floppy disks.
Featuring:
- More than 15 different hand-crafted levels
- More than 10 different enemies, each one with its own behaviour
- Cannot kill anything, just dodge, dash, jump, wall-slide and wall-jump!
- Multiple challenges on each level: learn how to avoid every trap, then do it! (and die a certain amount of times while trying)
- A custom password system
- Music by Beatscribe (as part of this Cyberpunk Music Pack)
- Written in C with the ZGB Engine
This was my second game for the Game Boy (the first one was an assembly snake that maybe is more of a proof of concept rather than a "full game experience") and while it was pretty fun to write (the ZGB Engine is really awesome to do some platform-like games) it turns out to be a slighly hard title and the difficulty curve is practically broken: that's what happens when you focus more on add stuff-over-stuff rather than trying to balance the whole gameplay.
I'll probably go with the GBDK-2020 (the underlaying development kit ZGB is using) for future projects - at some point I would like to do a Game Boy Stakblok port.
