I really wish I didn't have to use this image twice in one year, but we're once again experiencing technical difficulties with our site.

We're doing all we can, but it's probably going to stay offline until the morning at least.

Sorry folks!

Just dropped a post on @gbstudiocentral.com sharing what I’m learning while making Fun Video Store, my first ‘big’ project made with @gbstudio.dev

Stumbled into the lovely world of Game Boy dev months ago, and it’s been like going down the rabbit hole!

I feel like this #1bit #GameBoy jam announcement was made to summon me specifically, lol 😆

BTW, I participated in the GB Pixel Art jam last year, and it was great fun! I can recommend it to other pixel artists!

There are no silly questions. If you look at the documentation, it details all the options for sprites. The sprite editor includes flip buttons for both horizontal and vertical, and many animation states already have the option for "flip for left/right" on as default.
