I just finished the DEMO a couple of hours ago, and y'all did really good. I also a video on the full game, and if it is better than the DEMO then I'm gonna be spoiled because either way I'l be buying the full game later on
Hey, I late to the party I suppose with buying a GBA cartridge of the game. I've heard there was some difficulty getting them released and I was wondering if buying a copy from First Press would get shipped out somewhat quickly? Or are they out of stock?
i can confirm this Rom working very well on android 7.0 Nougat LGLV series Phone Using VGBA Emulator From The Google Play Store Awesome Game Very Well Made GFX Impressed Me For Being A GBA Port
Hi, I absolutely enjoyed playing this Demo on my GBA SP, the sound of 16bit and trumpet like beep the graph especially and any animation on screen or collected pop up items and even the boss made me feel like I was play a modern indie game but on GBA utilizing the slightly more powerful SNES hardware.
Plus how much story and replayability of the same section the dev get out of the game just being in 2D space.
I just wish when playing the Demo rom on a SD though Kingston Micro SD Adapter inside a Mini SD Super Card SD, translucent purple flash card: the game Data would save.
I completely the Demo twice and save data doesn't save or even let me open the flash cart menus to manually save/loads save.
It ok on a demo to not save but I don't want to not be able to save data when playing the full around 10h paid for the rom. Thanks 😇
Hey, I had fun with this Demo' . The Bright colors , cartoony backdrop, cute yet relatable player avatar and an interesting story narrative to boot.
I Have an issue with the lack of world Map as moving around in circles doesn't do anything good for the fun factor of your game . There is a thin line between Challenging and Frustrating 😓😓😓
Wish There were more Devs creating quality Homebrew games for the Gameboy Advance like you.
some backtracking abilities would be nice. like from the bpne dragon I would wanna go back and explore the other path back there on the same screen. Also I am at the part after that where the guy would let me take the lead. except we are standing in front of a damn wall and are trapped in this few meter wide room...
Any chance of a release on other retro platforms? Would love to have this on Amiga or Sega Genesis. Would gladly help porting it there, too (I'm a software engineer/game designer myself).
Excellent - hope it's straight after please. I don't collect physical games anymore I'm afraid - but I've been waiting for your game with huge anticipation. Played the demo though many times by this point. Can't wait.
Hi - any chance of an update. Waiting anxiously for the release - are we getting close? Also wanted to double-check I'll be able to by a .gba version for my Omega Flash cart for on-gba play?
I felt in love with the demo (done it more than 15 times and so on)
Too bad for me when the kickstarter was live i don't have money to back the project. I hope i will still get a physical copy of the game when it will be released. If someone have a gba cartridge version to sell ... Pleaaaaaaase
thoroughly enjoyed this and can tell the full game will be excellent. But - I AM BEGGING YOU to include a map in the full game! It’s just not as fun/satisfying without one, I like having some control over exploration and not just sorta stumbling around and getting fomo for my surroundings. Just my 2 cents! Great job though
Incredible! Truly! I loved this demo beginning to end! The gameplay is incredibly fun, and while the controls don't exactly translate well to keyboard, I'd love to play this on Switch when it comes out.
I may not have a GBA, but I'd love to get this game from the E Shop when it does come out. The art style is great, and the dialogue is great too. The puzzles aren't that easy, but you feel great when you figure it out
At first I was like, "great, another GBA styled game," :( :P (I'm not much a fan of the gameplay style), but this game was fantastic! Honestly, it felt really nice to grapple with its challenges. Like, this was the kind of game I'd wanted years earlier, but never found.
The genre probably isn't so bad... I just never found a game I liked from it.
The demo was so good. I love the pixel art and the mechanics. Took me a little bit to figure out how to damage the boss.
Bug Report: I played it on a GBA emulator. One time when I was approaching the boss, I jumped right before it automatically moved me and did the little cutscene. I ended up stuck in the ground and could not move, so I just died to the boss.
This demo has so much polish. It's clear that you guys have gone over every piece of this design with a fine tooth comb. It's such a neat package, and I'm itching for the full release!
I enjoyed finding all the secrets and obtaining the "alien technology" from the orange dimension.
This game really respects the player. It respects their problem solving skills and platforming capabilities. It doesn't hold your hand so I feel like I have a lot of agency, and I love that in a game. It nudges you right when and where you need it.
I agree so much! At first I was like, "great, another GBA styled game," :( :P (I'm not much a fan of the gameplay style), but this game was fantastic! Honestly, it felt really nice to grapple with its challenges. Like, this was the kind of game I'd wanted years earlier, but never found.

I Want ask

Right one, you can get kicked by the guard.
Left one go underneath the rising platforms after shooting the clockwork key.

Good Job 👍👍
This little glimpse is awesome. Can't wait for the full release!!!
10/10 love it
some backtracking abilities would be nice.
like from the bpne dragon I would wanna go back and explore the other path back there on the same screen.
Also I am at the part after that where the guy would let me take the lead.
except we are standing in front of a damn wall and are trapped in this few meter wide room...
Also I surely missed a lot, like getting the guys rations that tells me I need a gun.
Like, you literally cant get there without going through one of the 3 gates :-(
how do you get to azure i like 90%ed it cuz i couldnt find her
and the secret lvl
you really need to make the controls for charging and looking easyer (on pc)
first boss is rlly hard with the charging control
HOLY CRAP THIS IS SO GOOD!!! The animations are so smooth, and the everything looks so good!! 5 stars!!!
This is an awesome game you have. I really like the animations. The pc controls are a little hard to get used to but its an awesome game.

The physical editions are now available for pre order, shipping in winter this year https://firstpressgames.com/collections/goodboy-galaxy
Please let us know if we will be able to buy a .gba rome for use on a flashcart please - as we'vebeen doing with the demo.
Yes that will be possible as soon as the physical editions ship
Excellent - hope it's straight after please. I don't collect physical games anymore I'm afraid - but I've been waiting for your game with huge anticipation. Played the demo though many times by this point. Can't wait.
COOL AF

what a beautiful game! it's definitely the sum between something cute and amazing gameplay. I can't forget to congratulate you on the translations too
Nice game!

It’s just not as fun/satisfying without one, I like having some control over exploration and not just sorta stumbling around and getting fomo for my surroundings. Just my 2 cents! Great job though
Thanks so much! We absolutely will be including a map, don't worry :)
Amazing! Keeping my eyes peeled for the release
Hi - any update on expected release date please? I thought you had this pined for April 2023?
It's taking a little bit longer, sorry!

I'm excited for more!
