A GBA demo / vertical slice built from the ground up, point and click adventure style demo with 3d entities over pre-rendered 2d backgrounds, also including video playback and 3d audio. The demo is based on an existing game made by Ben 'Yahtzee' Croshaw, 7 Days a Skeptic. This is a personal project to aid developing my own skillset, inspiration / desire for this project came about after seeing Raylight Studio's Blue Roses GBA Tech, in particular the Resident Evil 2 tech demo.
Only builds for windows and GBA
