It was fun studying the design of all the different pieces. I busted out the calculator to make the spiral points as accurately spaced as I could

bonerfart How to spot a 'fake' gamer - Frequently pronounces video games as "Blideo Bames" - Will often say "I need help passing this level it's really hard" then when you look at their screen it's running Microsoft Excel 2007 - They invite you to their place to check out their game collection and it's just every season of Frasier (still impressive) - Their Xbox One is actually a series of tissue boxes glued together with the word "NINTEMDO" painted over it - When you ask their favorite video game they respond by doing a series of skillful backflips, temporarily distracting you from having asked the question in the first place - Keeps a secret diary with "I HATE VIDEO GAMES AND I NEVER PLAY THEM" written on every page

I even wrote my own level editor in Godot! The levels have to be stored as a list of bytes defining each tile in the room, which gets really difficult to visualize. So I made visual interface that can paint background tiles with a mouse and save the data in files that only take 80 bytes of storage.
A level editor made in Godot. On the left is a grid of tiles that can be selected. On the bottom right is the level layout onto which tiles can be painted. The top right shows the buttons, New, Open, and Save.

The whole game is written in assembly for the Game Boy's processor using RGBDS. I'm likely not following some of the best practices, but I'm really proud of what I accomplished with my first time programming at this level! Below is a snippet of what some of the code looks like.
