GB Studio offers a free Game Boy-inspired way to create 2D games

<div style="margin: 5px 5% 10px 5%;"><img src="http://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/gb-studio-offers-a-free-game-boy-inspired-way-to-create-2d-games.jpg" width="200" height="200" title="" alt="" /></div><div><p>Right around the 30th anniversary of the release of Nintendo’s iconic handheld, game developer Chris Maltby has released a free tool to create Game Boy-inspired games.</p>
<p>The project is a visual game builder called <a href="https://www.gbstudio.dev/">GB Studio</a> and launched as a free download last week. It’s a project born from a&nbsp;Game Boy-inspired game jam, and one that aims to offer a way for anyone to build playable, 2D adventure games with no programming knowledge what-so-ever.</p>
<p>The tool is a little limited in what it offers&nbsp;and is designed to create top-down 2D JRPG-styled adventure games. Because of that, however, GB Studio is accessible to those with any level of game development experience.</p>
<p>Any project created with the visual game builder can be exported as an HTML5 file, which allows it to be played in a browser or uploaded to sites like <a href="http://itch.io">itch.io</a>, or a ROM that can then be played through a Game Boy editor or on the actual hardware itself via a flash cart.&nbsp;</p>
<p>More information, including documentation, a download link, and GitHub page, can be found on the <a href="https://www.gbstudio.dev/">GB Studio website</a>.</p>
