The Curse of Lake Pineview is a horror RPG for the Gameboy Color (and for your web browser.) A nostalgic horror spin on the familiar style of 8 bit Gameboy RPGs.

You're an investigator sent to track down a missing girl who seems to have an involvement with the occult. To find out what's happened to her you'll have to explore her lake house, battle her demons, play cards, and talk to her dad.

Features include: - A unique turn based combat system - it's like blackjack with monsters - A cute and spooky lake house to explore - A charming story rich with dialogue - 4 whole music tracks, to suit any mood - as long as those moods are exploring somewhere spooky or fighting things - If you have the means, you can play this on a real Gameboy Color! (Or in black and green on an original Gameboy!)

Tools used: - GB Studio - Aseprite - Tiled - Photopea

Overall I am over the moon with how well this came out and I'm super proud of how much game I managed to make in just 3 days (and how little I managed to sleep.) It's impossible not to smile when you see something you made on a little Gameboy screen :)
