OffTopic > GBA Indepenent scene

#68598 - Chaotic Harmony - Wed Jan 25, 2006 11:50 pm

I'm new and I was wondering - is there a GBA Indie gaming scene? What sorta things are people working on? Unfortunately, evenything I've found so far seems to be technical in nature - and the PD lists on emulation sites just seem to be photo albums and eBooks. Are there any cool games for the GBA made by hobbists and distributed for free?

On that note, what are everyone's "favorite" indie-GBA games?

(I figure that's as good way as any to find out what's worth downloading :))

Make a complete game is difficult. Very few indie games can be considered complete. Promising people probably get absorbed by companies before they complete anything big or really "cool".

Big games don't generally get completed, but puzzle games often do. Which is great, as everyone should luurve the puzzles..
