AutomaTuning! ~Maestra & Captive Coolfrog~

Help Maestra, the music witch, find all her familiars! Rescue a captured familiar from an evil mech, in this GBC game! This was inspired by metroidvanias and also retro platformers, so there's no map and you have to do some exploring yourself. Jump and jump! 

This whimsical metroidvania features:

  • 3 unlockable abilities!
  • 1 boss! 

It can be played from start to finish on either desktop PC or mobile phone!

This game was made for Metroidvania Month 31 x Magical Girl Game Jam 13!

Total Playtime: Estimated 10-20~ minutes

How to Play 

  • Controls: Interact (Up), Jump (Z/A)
  • NOTE: After clicking "run game", make sure to click on the embed and press Z or X to ensure the game embed is activated.
  • Ability controls explained in-game! (Spoilers: X/B and Shift/Select)

Bugs?

  • We've fixed a vast amount of bugs and game locks surrounding the boss battle, but it's possible that we missed something. We would love to know if you were able to complete it, because we spent a lot of time and builds debugging it!  Note: The scene transition that looks like teleporting is intended, it was implemented to make the boss fight play out as planned.  
  • Expected GB bugs like the sprites flashing on the screen when loading a new scene, or the bullet getting glitched with too many actors are expected too, since we didn't have time to optimize the tileset...
