Making the #GameBoy / Color #Axelay #demake demo ROM & source public.

It's been a year and still haven't worked on it more (even to clean up the demo source), so may as well make it available in it's current state.

(Note: there isn't much more to it than what is shown here. 😅 )

Edit: Also includes a #MegaDuck ROM, but it's very hard to see it on that console's screen.

Game Boy Axelay Demake Demo (runs on actual hardware) by bbbbbr

A Game Boy demake of a NES demake of the SNES game Axelay

Video of the #MegaDuck screen just barely hanging in there.

The ambient LED light source is also rolling in and out of phase a little.

In the demo ROM (linear) horizontal scrolling is turned off, but it does work without issue on the #gameboy. Scrolling backwards works fine too.

A (unreleased) video from last year with just a map showing both.

@bbbbbr similar effect to Animal Crossing on Switch but on the GB!
@bbbbbr this looks badass dude!
@MrBungle Thanks! Maybe someday I'll rally the motivation to make a proper game of it. :)
@bbbbbr This is such an incredible achievement to get something like this running on the Gameboy to begin with!
@bbbbbr Super impressive dude!
@bbbbbr OMG! This is incredible, it really pushes the boundaries of what the GB is capable of.
@bbbbbr That is some fuckin' voodoo right there, and I think you are maybe a sorcerer dealing with unholy powers.
