With the newly released Analogue Pocket, and the newest update for GB Studios, are you planning to publish the .pocket version of this game? I’d love to be able to play this on my Pocket, so I hope so!
We tried exporting it last night, and it doesn't convert well. The code will need gutting and redoing in version 3.0 for it to be anywhere close to an analogue pocket release. Considering it took roughly six months to finish, we might be a while off from making a pocket release. That said, we're going to keep trying to see what we can get, and I've been looking over converting some of my other games.
I think @Polyducks and I are trying to decide if we should invest the time and effort in moving this game up to 3.0, which is a decent development effort (as he already mentioned), or if we should move to a new GB Studio 3.0 project entirely, or both.
Regardless, we are very excited about the Analogue Pocket, GB Studio version 3.0 and all of the potential and possibilities of game development in 2022! :)
Not sure if you saw this twitter thread but it looks like the creator of GB Studio is looking into some options for exporting 2.x games to work with the Analogue Pocket:
An absolutely delightful game! I played it on stream and really enjoyed it. Also, I found a thing in the credits, and I feel like there's some way to translate it:
A visually stunning game!! I love how it takes the best aesthetic values of early pokemon overworlds and also pushes its restricted palette to the limit to make really beautiful scenes.
I haven't played the original but I am a big fan of the dialog and mood here, and I really like how it feels like a text adventure translated as an RPG. It makes exploring the world around you engaging.
Thanks so much :~) I'm really glad people are able to sink into the world - the writers worked really hard to give them all strong, individual 'voices'.
Ok , this got to be one of the best games ive played this year :p
I didnt know what I was playing at first but after a while playing I fell in love with it! Great job! Could easy be a perfect game if I could skip the same dialogueI got before from the same person xD but thats just me! LOVED IT!
Superb storytelling. I usually don't finish games at one go but on this one, I could not stop playing. Great aesthetics. It would have been better if there is something to do in the actual mud fight. Some strategy maybe that we could apply to win matches where our stars are lower than our opponent.
Every character is unique and has depth, which is pretty amazing with so few words. The art and animations really add to the gameplay and story. The music seemed to be pretty authentic gameboy style, and always felt fitting (I look forward to the full OST release!). I love that when played on mobile, the buttons are provided at the bottom half of the screen - like playing on a real gameboy! My only wish was for a save feature, since I got half way through on my phone and when I opened the page the next day I had to start over. And it would be nice to go back and try to find a final piece of something I missed. But overall, I loved this and it got some mud on my heart - great job, team!
Thanks for your kind words and insight on our game.
There actually is an autosave feature in the game but I haven't been able to get it to work on my iPhone either. It should work in the browser and I *think* I tested the rom on an emulator and it worked there as well.
But, yeah, the phone implementation has been a bit iffy.

This is the best GB Studio game I've played. Excellent art, music & writing. Loved the world building (and the secret too).
Thanks so much, and congratulations on finding the secret :~)
Cool. You are only the second person I have heard from that found the secret. Congrats!
may I have a hint to it pls?
Look for a message in the end credits.
Very cool! Awesome art!
Thanks! I agree. Polyducks did an amazing job on each set piece in the game.
Just played through this, it was great I loved it 😊
Thank you for your kind words. Glad you enjoyed it :).
just played and beat. Love how seriously the ending was driven 💀 . The world building is phenomenal.
Appreciate the positive feedback. Glad you enjoyed our muddy game :).

If this work is successful, we will definitely do an Analogue Pocket export.
Good news! We just uploaded the Analogue Pocket version of Mud Warriors.
Please try it out and let us know how it works for you!

I don't remember seeing any talismans tho...
👀👀
I found the talisman and, uh, I have a lot of questions about that cutscene now lol
haha congratulations, I think you're the first and also I'm not entirely convinced you've reached the bottom of that particular rabbit hole.
Cool! Glad to hear someone found it :).
So, in the cutscene, did your character end up getting banished?

I love the idea of doing a speed run on a slower, exploratory, narration-driven game. That's a lot of button mashing :). Thanks for doing this.

Thanks for your kind words. Adapting an IF game was definitely an experiment for us. Glad it was something you enjoyed.
Mud Warriors is really cool!
Thanks for your support and for playing our game!
Your welcome, thanks for making an awesome game!
Really cool game ! Awesome experience !
Thank you for playing!
I got notifications for some other messages you've left me, but they're not appearing. Did they get deleted?
That was fantastic! Thank you!
Thanks for playing!
Great Game
Thank you!
Reminds me of Charlie Brown in that it totally creates a world these characters inhabit. Amazing work. The end sequence is a great payoff!
Thanks so much :~) I'm really glad people are able to sink into the world - the writers worked really hard to give them all strong, individual 'voices'.

here is my gameplay if you want to see,
Excellent, I look forward to watching through :~)
This is a master piece! Amazing
Thanks Pete :~)

Yes, the deterministic nature of the combat was something we discussed quite a bit, so I appreciate your feedback. Glad you enjoyed the story.
War has left me scarred. More please
We've ruined your childhood memories :).
I'm sure you will be hearing more from our little group soon. Thanks!

Thanks! That's exactly what we were going for so it's nice to hear we achieved that for you.

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed our little game.
