I do want people to support devs releasing games with #incube8, and they have done some good in the community.

But keep in mind their game licenses are garbage.

They claim for Digital and Physical games they can:

- Cancel the license any time & force you to "destroy" ROM (refund unclear)

- Change the license any time & way, expect you to check their website (forever?) for changes

- You are not allowed to open ROM in debugger or use cheat codes

Beat the new Dragonborne DX demo today from Incube8 games for the Gameboy Color. I hope they spice up the battle a little bit for the final release, but *visually* the game is just perfect. The game is new, but it feels like discovering a hidden classic for the Gameboy.

I've played a couple of the other games Incube8 have published and really like the whole purchasable-ROM-for-old-platforms setup. Gives the flexibility to play on my phone or any other little retro emulator I own. (They also sell physical GBC cartridges which is super tempting).
