Yes, this is a REAL Game Boy game! I made it in GB Studio 4.1.3 as my submission for the GB Jam 12! (If you participated in the Jam, please rate it!)
This project was, more than anything, an exercise in flexing my artistic muscle, both on the visual AND audio side of things, I really went above and beyond with this project given I had only 10 days to make the entire thing, and the frankly rather limited GB hardware, and as a result I am Utterly Exhausted! Pardon me but I need a good break after this...
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the game, and please, download the ROM and play that on an emulator, the browser version is bugged and I can't fix it 'til after the Jam rating period...
Oh and, if you're wondering, yes, I know it lags, GB Studio's platformer engine is a bit much for the original GB hardware, and also yes, I Would quite like to make a colour version of this, and the GBC's double clock speed WILL help eliminate the lag, but again, I Am Exhausted, so it won't come out for a wee bit, I appreciate your patience.

![【PCE】Final Soldier - Dead or Alive (2 minute Caravan) - Game Boy Cover【Deflemask】
Check out my bandcamp: https://michirin9801.bandcamp.com/
Support my music!
I got rid of the noise distortion! Yaaay! And all I needed to do was use a different screen recording software, as in, the same one I was using before...
Anyway, heres another Final Soldier song on the Game Boy, this time its the one that plays in the 2 minute caravan mode! Thats basically a score attack mode, the game gives you a stage and 2 minutes to score as many points as you possibly can with the default weapon, thats the mode, sounds archaic doesnt it? But its actually surprisingly fun to see just how high you can score in it, and its especially more fun when you get to listen to such amazing music while youre at it!
Theres also a 5 minute mode where you play through the same stage with the same goal but you get to see more of it and a different song plays, Ill cover that one on the Game Boy sooner than later, until then I hope you enjoy what you hear ^^
[Edit]
Heres the cover of the 5 minute Caravan mode song I promised: https://youtu.be/pIe_2q8Cf1I
