A simple top down action game for the original Game Boy (DMG). Made with GBDK Version 4.0.5. Aims to run on original hardware. This code is not optimized, especially the tiles and tile management could be better. The self-imposed goal was to restrict myself to the base cartridge, no MBC.
You are a pirate captain who has just arrived to a small port town. But the locals you are not as lively as you expected them. Armed with your trusty anchor and cannon Bessie, you try to eliminate as many of them as you can!
D-Pad: Move character
A Button: Use anchor (melee attack)
B Button: Shoot cannon
Start Button: Start/Pause game
Adjust paths to GDBK and your favourite emulator if necessary and run the make file or compile.bat. You can use compile.bat -nostart To just compile the game.
