.𖥔 ݁ ˖Balance ݁𖥔 . - GB Pixel Art Jam 2025 entry
Another year, another #GBPixelArtJam!
My entry this year is about the “balance” of the life of a #magicalgirl. I love anime, but I get stressed just thinking about saving the world and still having to go to school in the morning!
#gbstudio #pixelart

A 1-bit pixel art piece. The illustration is split in half; on the left is a magical girl in a dress casting a spell; on the right she is sleeping in class.

I decided to participate in the GB Pixel Art Jam! The theme was balance for this year and thought about a witch balancing on a broom.

(Don't know if I translated that well, tho, but I had fun with this 😌🧡)

Hi Everyone I´m new here and just dropping the link to my entry for the GB Compo 2025… an exciting puzzle game. The game is currently only at a DEMO stage, but I want to turn this into a physical release for the GBC.

Got to tinkering and ended up with two more plugins for #gbstudio, so if you were wanting to make something car- or tank-based, you're in luck!
