Thanks, one of the things I’ve always tried to do (at work, before I started on GB Studio) is make difficult things seem easy and accessible. Though I’d have also told you this was probably impossible before starting too!

I just built it up slowly, making small tools to help me make sense of what was going on while learning GBDK, before I knew it pretty much had something I could package up. I’ve had a lot of help along the way though, untoxa’s [0] engine rewrite, and the work pau-tomas [1] did on the music editor have been especially helpful to the project.

Been a bit absent from the community recently, not had the time, but hoping to get back on it again soon!

I’m always amazed at how many awesome games people keep making though, it makes me really happy as this the first of many failed side projects that I pushed on through to completion.

Thanks for the incredible tool!
I love GB Studio. I plan to use it to make a movie but will release my “games” too. Are you active on Mastodon or Bluesky?
