testing gameboy printer!!
Added 2022-12-20 07:55:13 +0000 UTCfor my next game i want to use the gameboy printer in gb studio so i've been messing around a lot with it - ran into a number of problems like the plugin i used throwing kernel errors & then the printer not printing enough margin...
but i've finally got it working so i can actually start on the main game bit!
right now my goal is to have a demo ready for 1/15 next year since i want to show the demo with a printer at tokyo game dungeon which i'll be exhibiting at... people who play the demo will be able to print off little restaurant receipts from the game 😊
the game idea is that you go on a date at a family restaurant & you want to treat your date to a meal but you actually only have 2000 yen on you so you want to make sure you can pay for both you and your date's meals 🍚
so at the end of the meal you go to pay & you print out your receipt & see the total.
i'm not sure i'll make it in time because wow there's only less than a month left & i'll be taking a break over the holidays, so wish me luck!

2022-12-25 21:12:58 +0000 UTCif you're specifically looking for a gb emulator that also emulates gb printer i suggest mgba (https://mgba.io/) - it's what i have been using to test what my prints will look like without using a bunch of paper every time 😁
