The GBA has fixed sprite sizes, essentially combinations of 8, 16, 32, and 64 for width and height. In order to have sprites free of these constraints, you can make "meta sprites" out of multiple sprites. This brings other challenges, like proper horizontal flipping 😅

Still not really a game, but I think Dundeck is far enough along for people to play with it #RetroGaming #IndieDev #RetroDev

More progression, combat is working, just needs balancing and tidying up. Next step is working out how the game continues after you die

Very early days, but a bunch of the mechanics are done and some very simple graphics added. Still need to code battles and the collecting progression system that makes it a roguelike.
