Friendly Fire
Do you know that moment when you're playing Tetris and the whole world starts moving too fast and you just keep up?
That's Friendly Fire. A high-speed falling blocks puzzle game game about how difficult it can be to keep the flame of friendship alive.
To play, catch the "friendly" fire that matches your colour, while avoiding all other colour fire. Be warned, though: your colour will change every time you catch friendly fire!
To play on PC: left/right keys or WASD to move. Alt, Z, J, or Enter to progress dialogue.
Doing a game in one week was a challenge, but I'm proud of what I made. In particular, I learned a lot about making music for Game Boy, as I've never featured music in my games before.
Endless Mode is a lot more polished than Story Mode, especially in terms of the difficulty curve, so if you're having a hard time with Story Mode I'd recommend giving Endless Mode a try for a while to learn the game's rhythm.
Please feel free to report bugs as this is a Game Boy Showdown 2023 Game Jam game and probably a mess. Also, please report if you can't see certain sprites due to colour blindness or other issues.
