Demo released for Depths of Europa

In preparation for the upcoming Kickstarter, I’ve released an early demo for Depths of Europa - a new, modern metroidvania I’ve been making for the Gameboy Color.

I’ve tried to bring all of the modern “quality of life” features to the old GBC - there’s an automap that fills in as you explore, a full save system, inventory and equipment management, and liberal use of parallax scrolling everywhere I could squeeze in the CPU cycles for it.

Give it a go if you like exploration based games or Gameboy stuff in general!

And don’t worry about spoilers for the full game - this is a standalone experience that happens before the main narrative.

You can download the .GBC rom to use in an emulator or play it online at the project page.
