Install instructions

You will need a GBA emulator like mGBA or VBA-M to play this game on your PC. I recommend playing the latest version (v1.2) unless you need the original GBA Jam game for the purpose of judging.

This game is seriously impressive! The UI design and controls feel professional and natural. I was obliterated by the blue-haired dude, but the spirit crystal system is a fun way to gain power and reward combat.

I can't tell which palette to choose for my IPS GBA though! 😅

I love these graphics! Normally I shy away from this combat style, but this game is a lot of fun.

pretty cool

Loved it!

Reminds me of the old Shin Megami Tensei games on the snes! Really enjoyable, worth it if you have a flashcart so you can play on real hardware haha
