A downloadable game

You've been stuck in your apartment for about three years, because of Covid lockdown. You're getting a bit loopy. Reality seems to be optional these days. Can you make it through another day in this 2D top-down adventure/lockdown simulator for the Game Boy Advance?



All the core game logic is written in the ancient and fossilized Forth programming language, except for interrupt handling (libtonc) and sound mixing (Apex Audio System). I added a bit of info on the dev experience in this blog post.

All the code is open source, and can be found at: https://github.com/stuij/rath
