Patrick’s Pocket Challenge for the Nintendo® Game Boy™ is fun for all ages. Are you ready for the challenge? Feel free to leave your high scores in the comments below.

Instructions

The object of the game is to move Patrick around the board and remove all 28 squares. Squares with square symbols on them will remove extra squares, and can make the puzzles trickier or easier.

Controls

• D-pad: Select square
• A: Move
• B: Load a new level (if you haven't moved yet)

How to run the game

If you're unable to play on a real Game Boy, you will need to download the ROM and run it in an accurate Game Boy emulator that simulates uninitialized RAM. I recommend BGB.

I have unfortunately not found a JavaScript/WebAssembly emulator that simulates random uninitialized memory, so none of them can run this game in the browser, as I rely on random uninitialized memory values as a seed for level generation.

This is a fanmade Game Boy sequel to the 1998 freeware sensation Patrick's Challenge II by Reldni Productions, for GBJAM 6.

Created from scratch in assembly, using RGBDS. Tested and debugged in BGB (and on an actual Game Boy).
