-The game:

"Gimme Your Heart" is a kind of adventure/ puzzle game where you have to give one of your heart in exchange to progress trough the story. Adorable balloons, fancy snakes...Funny and eccentric characters awaits through your short adventure! Anyway It was very fun creating this!

-First experience:

It was my first time making a game. I know nothing about programming, I just like to do pixel art and create characters and stories. Not having basics or time is hard, but is very challenging.

-Made with...:

The game was made in GB Studio, I just discovered the program a few days ago together with tiled... It is easy but of course has a lot of limits. It was very easy to built since GB Studio supports web. You will also be able to play It on your smartphone!

-Bugs:

GB Studio has different bugs. In this game specially It has one in the big map with the house and the last map, the dialogue box appears corrupted and I have no idea why.


-Credits:

Special thanks to CornetTheory for the music,Caranha for helping me out, Pico Pico Cafe and Joseph for letting me work there, Nomi for organizing, the other people at the cafe.

This was a cute little experience and I'd absolutely love to see more of it ! I do hope you'll update it and add more levels to it because the only real downside I have to say about this game is that it is too short.

Short, sweet, and nostalgic! I wasn't aware of GB Studio, that's pretty neat. I probably spent more time walking around looking at the game's beautiful art than trying to make it to the end!

@harksa Thank you! I'd really like to make other levels. I already have the tiles for them, is just that thinking about puzzles and dialogues takes time..!

Heh, very neat! I really loved the gameboy feel with the spritework and the music.

Next time let's sit down to make a longer continuation to this game! I want to find out what the snake needs all those hearts for!

thanks! @youpeoples the music was made by @cornettheory . Since It was my first game I got stucked a lot. When It happened I just draw a lot of pixel art, and with all the tiles I try to create maps and ideas!

Awesome, another GB game (I did one for this LD as well)!

GB Studio is a fantastic program. I don't personally use it as I can handle code well, but it is nice to see barrier to entry, even for retro games development getting lower. This was a REALLY good for a first game. You should be proud of yourself. <3
