Flash cartridge friendly versions of PixelH8’s GB tools

July 20th, 2012


Here’s a quickie: PixelH8’s Gameboy tools are known to crash when used on a real Gameboy with flash cartridges. The cause of this is a simple programming mistake that I was able to fix easily, so here are patched versions of the four Gameboy ROMs.

Out of the tools, I personally find Deathray to be the most interesting, as it can create some harsh and unique tones that are worse than Shitwave.

If you happen to own one of the originally released cartridges, I’m interested in knowing if there’s a difference between the “free” versions and the retail version. Or even a ROM dump.

    Hey there,

    Do you sell these cartridges or know where I could get one?

    Been looking for something I could play live versus making a song first. Can you key the notes and play this live with a gameboy pocket? I’d just use the headphone and jack it to a speaker.

    Thanks for your time, sweet looking stuff.
