Ghoul Thrasher is a randomly generated Game Boy dungeon crawler that throws you into the deadly, monster-infested Citadel Sinystera. Once a lowly peasant, Gnargoth is now the last hope for the Squalid Swamp, a land overrun by monstrous abominations. The brave warriors are gone, and the townsfolk live under a reign of terror. It’s up to you to lead Gnargoth through their perilous quest, to battle monstrous foes, and restore peace to the corrupted Citadel.

Love this! Just a suggestion, maybe a dice roll would be nice to see when attacking or defending. It doesn't even need a number, just a success or failure would suffice.

Thanks or the feedback! I'll try out using a hit confirmation sprite and see how it feels.

Very reminiscent of Dark Fort. Great shit!

Thanks, Dark Fort was definitely a big inspiration! We love Dark Fort and Mork Borg! 

really great start and intrigues to check some more out when it’s completed! a bit curious on the battle front as I noticed I have a very easy time when mashing a. 

Thanks for checking it out! We are big fans of Traumatarium and it is definitely an inspiration for GT. Many elements of the game rely on chance, so some runs are easier than others, try Thrasher mode for a more challenging experience.
