I tried to port Super Auto Pets to the Gameboy Advance. 

You 2 are legends 🤝👑

the art was really good!

Imagine if this was Nintendo. “RECREATING OUR GAME?! sued”

Thank you for your efforts.

@@danielkelsosmith Nintendo has spies everywhere!

😮 Keenoe! Love your SAP videos dude

@@Mister32 I'm happy to hear that, thank you!

TBH Wondered if you'd see this video 😂 Guess you have a new video idea if this does get released??

omg its the real Keenoe

Omg it's William

It uses samples too. I used to rip instrument samples from gba games to use in FL studio

@@SilverXTikal Definitely! This was more my own limitations working with audio rather than the GBA's. I didn't have time to explore richer music options with the limited turnaround time for the project and instead opted to use / describe what I understood rather than talking about an area I wasn't fully knowledgeable about.

@@abetoday respectable! 👌

Wario Land 4 was an early GBA game and it had amazing Sound audio and voice sampling and even some music with vocals.

Funny thing is, the GBA apparently doesn't have its own sound chip at all, and the GBA's sounds mostly came direct from the CPU. This meant that you could play high-quality audio files if you wanted to, but would have to sacrifice CPU headroom for, so if the code was further optimised, the actual recording of the SAP theme could be played, although it would still have to be heavily downsampled for standard use. Most sound designers just used the GBA's soundfonts for the music, and the GBC chipset for the bass, drums and SFX.

Yes! It's just unlisted, you can go to Playlists > Behind The Scenes on my channel and it's there! We did hear back and the project is currently open-source in a 80% finished state on Github at abeisgoat/SuperAdvancePets

Yes, especially 4-player link. Depending on how large the game file is and how it uses the Game Boy's RAM, you could even get a Single-Pak link game working.

What's really impressive to me is what was accomplished historically without an existing game to clone/demake. Not every outcome was stellar, but a lot of great games were made.

uh... pretty sure it was 3 weeks

About second and third questions, as it is only turtle pack, I can't think of a way that not implement that is a problem

I was thinking of using the link cable to address question 1. While it would probably be less interesting that a live 1v1 match, it could instead basically "mix records" and let you download a friend's team to get added to the pool of opponents.

@angeldude101 amazing feature idea. However, from a development point of view, here are some limitations: • The storage for a cartridge game like gba is limited, and storing data from a third party may require offloading default oppent data. More can be held in ram if configured to be battery type like the pokemon series, but it isn't much more by today's standard of data bloat. If configured for Flash memory, everything gets more expensive should a physical cart ever get made. • To depend on this feature to freshen the game would be hard as it is unlikely anyone will legitimately have the opportunity to use the feature with another user. Resulting in a development work better placed else where. My 1v1 lobby battle question suffers from this, too. I may be better off creating a random team generator based on the current turn to set min/max or noisy average stats to build the teams from. Depending on space and complexity, a developer can have a "follow weighting" to each pet chosen. So all pets don't have an equal chance of being selected on each random turn. This would result in what humans do, and the turtle will tend toward the first 4 slots, Elephants will prefer blowfish behind them, and tigers will be preferred after the hurt/start of battle/before attack/etc pets.

@Xarope Vic in a full game, yes, but at the stage a non "happy path," runaway is unlikely, and the developer may choose to leave it as an edge case. Truthful Team Wood didn't fully encounter this until the Orca and Stork as well as the Seagul and Mushroom. So, my initial question is moot if the GBC game stays with the turtle pack.

Glad you enjoyed it!

❤️❤️❤️

This ^. I can't wrap my head around how u accomplished this within 3 weeks without prior C programming experience and other programming experiences. It's a really impressive project.

Might as well play Harvest Moon. It was a large inspiration for Stardew Valley.

@@MNSweet i was using that as an example of indie ganes with pixel art styles

@@Caolan114 ok I miss understood, Cheers.
