Game
Underswap: The Gameboy Project
1 year ago

2 Weeks since my last update...

Let's have a quick chat, shall we?


If you want to get to the point of this post, just scroll down to the bold text at the bottom. If not, though, then here's some exposition for 'ya...

First off, let me say I am a HUGE Undertale fan. It got me out of a dark place, and it's the singular reason I want to develop video games - to give people a world to indulge themselves in when they need a break from life.

So, I started with fan-games. I've had a lot of ideas over the last 2-3 years (the quality of them being questionable) and I didn't like them... until this project.

My love for old video games knows no bounds, hell I even like the Virtual Boy. I've always had the (maybe a bit weird) dream to make a game, and put it on every console from Sony, Xbox and Nintendo (yeah, a bit ambitious...). But there's something I've had in my head for years now...

A frog. Yup, a god dammit frog. The lil' booger went through many design changes over the years as my drawing improved, and I've always wanted to slap him and many other characters I've drawn into a game... So imma do it now.

I'm going to be doing that now. The page isn't ready, but my working title is "Bottle it up" (The name will be explained soon) and I'll be making it with Gameboy Studio, a fan made development thingy for making Gameboy games.

(Here's the bit after the exposition)

"But Sasn, what about Gameboy Underswap? We haven't seen any news for two weeks! Is it... CANCEL??? "

Well...

Here's the trailer for the full first area, almost complete :)

I honestly was going to just cancelled it, but... Seeing how much people cared about the project, I really didn't want it to end up in the scrap pile of dead UT Fangames... So I'll work on it whenever I have the motivation to. Yes, it will be slower... But hey, at least it will be the the best version of itself by the end. (You read "the" twice XD)

If you want more news about the game I've been dreaming of for years, stick around because I will be working on getting a page for it on Gamejolt as soon as I find the time If you want Underswap Gameboy'd, also stick around because that will still be worked on, if at a slower pace. I'll do my best to get the page for my original game up quickly once I get the time (only got the time to type this because I'm stuck in line with a Karen demanding a manager, so yeah they ARE real lol). Thanks for reading all this, and have a Frogtastic day! :)

Oh, ok :)

A nice donut save file :)

WAIT CHARA DON'T-

I had a choice between making 8-bit and 16-bit sprites for the game...

Sprite Commission!

Sans the Skeleton

am i cooked (also sans sprite update)

Fun fact: This game was originally going to be a TS!Underswap Demake, but due to the first areas size alone I decided to make a smaller scale Underswap instead.

I don't think that's the kind of response Temmie was expecting...

Our 2024 Advent Calendar has opened! Day 9: @souptaels is a great Creator who makes pixel art and Undertale fan games! Accept the quest and give them a follow to get Coins and a seasonal sticker!

Don't worry, I'm still working on this...

And just so you know, this isn't "Summer Sans"
