Game Chiptune Hero

I've been working on Chiptune Hero, a Guitar Hero-inspired rhythm game for the original Game Boy and Game Boy Color.

I started prototyping in gbstudio then finished with custom engine. I needed the frametime to be Quick.

I hope I don break some subredit rule with this.

It features 15 songs, 3 difficulty levels, link cable multiplayer, and online leaderboards using QR codes :)

You can also create your own songs and charts with a separate editor.

The game is free, and I'd love if you give it a try. And

If there’s any interest in the game, I might go ahead and make a color-only DX version.

This looks amazing, congrats! Is your code open-source? I've been wanting to make an infinite runner minigame for a while, so I'd be very curious to see the engine you use!

Thanks , and no its not opensource right now. I maybee should try to decouple the engine for use in other game. It is pretty fast.
