Hat Boy

A narrative puzzle micro-game about exploring a strange underground world with two rival factions with ambiguous motivations that can't seem to see eye to eye... where will you stand? Your actions matter and will lead to one out of seven different endings!

Originally made as a super quick Bitsy game, but I fell in love with the silly characters and world, so I decided to expand on it.

The GameBoy remaster took about two weeks and was my first real GameBoy game. It was made using GB Studio. It includes new and improvemed interactions, better UI and game feel, multiple endings, and most important of all... Music!

Story, Game Design, Programming, and Music were all done by me. Sound Effects are courtsey of Coffee Valen Bat on itch.io.

I'm very happy with how it turned out and Chapter Two is already in the works!

Thank you to everyone who took the time to play Hat Boy: The Beginning and I hope you had fun!
