Spotlight: The Hollowed Patient | GB Studio Central There’s something mysterious and oddly thrilling about diving into hidden gems from the Game Boy homebrew scene. It feels slightly wrong, like you’re poking at something you weren’t meant to, booting ...

Diving into the depths of @itch.io should be an Olympic sport. The Hollowed Patient is a cute little Game Boy Color game with J-horror vibes. I talk about it over on @gbstudiocentral.com

Horror games were few and far between in the Game Boy's hey day, which means games like The Hollowed Patient can fill that hole. (You could say it was even made for them).

Me: It be cool if I could figure out how to get a projectile in GB Studio to be occluded by a wall in the background.

We've written some articles on Super Game Boy features. GB Printer is easier now with built in events. GBA mode isn't really a thing, you can use the "If GBA Mode Is Available" event to detect if the game is being played on a GBA to unlock special features in your game or adjust the palette.

Having a controller that's a sticker is quite a concept! We interview Playtiles to see how it all began, what it went through to creation and how they partner with GB Studio devs!

Oh my. I mean, the GB Studio community will certainly appreciate it, I'm sure there will be some tidbits for other creators to gain from.
