Play game
Classic Internet Scary Maze Game 3D: Game Boy Edition's itch.io pageHow does the game relate to the theme (Haunted)?
The house is pretty haunted, same with the computer. And toilet.
What optional themes/'powerups' were used, if any (Psychedelic and Machine)?
Psychedelic sorta spooky PT/Shining style premise, the PC in the game is a machine too. And it pretty pivotal to it all.

not only is this a nice and nostalgic tribute to the maze games...the fact that you actually got it to work/made it for the gameboy ;OO!! hats off to you sirr
Glad ye liked it, and cheers for giving it a go too. Making games for the Game Boy was my lifes dream at like eight years old so it's been nice to finally get 'round to that the last half decade or so.
If you're interested in tryin' to make somethin' for Game Boy there's a program called GBStudio that released in 2019 and makes it easy enough to pop together somethin' for the handheld. And there's an MDStudio now for Sega Mega Drive games too. As well as a few other retro engines. Been pretty cool making games for consoles that've been out-dated for decades haha.
This is so cool! I like how the game keeps me in suspense. Was half expecting something to jump at me when I walked myself into a corner and turned around. For some reason, the 2d map translating to '3d' space is very satisfying to play around with!
Eyyy cheers for playin', and for the nice words. Was a cool lil project to put together and get workin' the way I wanted it to.
There were constant moments where I'd think "A jumpscare would go here", then have to re-think it into "...so i'll put it over here instead where it's unexpected". Workin' out how I'd scare myself pretty much haha.

Cronch For Life 🤘
And "Fuck Yaself" ones for life too haha, double horns for that 🤘🤘
Cheers for givin' it a go, and on a Mac too. Might be why the J key issue popped up, will suss the settings in the program I was usin' and have a look up if it's common. Cool to spot stuff like that nice and early so double cheers haha.
This game is nicer. It could have been shorter, but it’s still enjoyable to play. Personally, I found the moment with the jumpscare from the lady on the toilet bowl quite amusing.
Well done, everyone.
Ayyyy cheers for playin'. Made another version years ago for a different game jam that was basically just the regular old maze game but on Game Boy. Always felt that was a bit too short but I may have gone too far in the other direction haha. Will keep that in mind when i'm makin' other games from now on too. Glad you liked the toilet scare too, that was a fun one to throw in haha.
Nice game entry. I thought the game could've been a lot shorter and still communicated the message. That's my only complaint. The 3D hallway represented by a 2D chart was interesting.
Hoyyo, thanks for givin' the game a whirl. The start of the game's pretty much the entirety of the old version of the maze game I made for a game jam years back. Have always wanted to expand that though but might've ended up closer to going overboard. Especially once I worked out all the harder to do perspective stuff. Everything else besides that is fun haha. Glad you dug that too.
Cheers for the feedback, always good to get that kinda healthy criticism and will help when i'm makin' stuff in future.
The game has a really cool art style! :))
Eyyy cheers, hell yeah for games where you play as a triangle haha.
Super creative game! Probably the scariest game of my life. Love the aesthetic and sounds which as well complement the game quite well!
This game is actually so funny lol. I wasn't expecting a lot of what's happening to be there. There are so much dumb jokes here as well, it feels like watching a "Scary Movie" movie.
I had a lot of fun with this one! Great work!
Eyyyy cheers a bunch, was cool converting speech clips to sound effects and tis nice they turned out better than I expected. Especially being on a handheld from decades ago haha. Originally planned to have a more serious tone but that's not my usual style, and silly ended up working better with the sudden-spooky-bits. So it's good to hear I probably went in the right direction.
Hope ya have a great day too.
the game is really nice and fun
i was struggling to move with the character at firs because im not use to walking with "w" key only
i really enjoyed it
Eyyy cheers heaps for giving it a go. The old school tanky controls can be a bit unwieldy to deal with but glad ya enjoyed it. And have a great rest of ya day.
This is absolutely the scariest game of my life
This game is genuinely so funny. I knew exactly what was going to happen on the first jumpscare, but after that I seriously couldn't stop laughing. Thanks for making my day
Ayy cheers for playin', and for the nice words.
When I made the original one folks were always like "Ha, know how this is gonna end". Wanted to mix things up this time though, if there was a moment I'd be expecting a jumpscare or some kinda dumb joke I either made it earlier or later and from the sound it might've worked okay. Hell yeah.
Hope the rest of ye weekend's great and thanks again. Was a nice post to wake up to haha.
