Never-before-seen Gameplay Mechanic with Two Cartridges UnveiledÂ
Barcelona, Spain –October 1, 2021– The one-man developer studio Greenboy Games, specialized in developing Game Boy games since 2018, has launched its Kickstarter campaign to fund and develop ‘The Shapeshifter 2’ for GameBoy today.
The new ‘The Shapeshifter 2’ contains never-before-seen gameplay mechanics. Just like the ‘Choose your own adventure’® books, where you can go to a different storyline according to your choice. This allows you to experience different adventures in one game in each game and every time you play.
‘The Shapeshifter 2’ is the 2nd part of the Trilogy ‘The Shapeshifter – Become the Animal You Touch’. It’s an old-school adventure game, and this time the adventure takes place in the elven world.
Play as Elliot (the main character) who has the power to become the animal that he touches to save the elven world from the wizard’s spell: Fly, swim, croak, cackle, bray, roar, growl, meow, among other curious skills.
Aside from everything unfolding according to your personal choices, it is the first and only GameBoy game that requires 2 cartridges to play! Players will have to switch the cartridges during the game and insert ‘Adventure Codes’ in order to continue your adventure.
With 4 environments and 8 different chapters, players can go back to previous points in order to get items or information that allow them to advance. However, in some moments of the game, you will have to return to the chapters of ‘The Shapeshifter 1’ to continue the adventure.
‘The Shapeshifter 2’ will be fully compatible with all Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance handhelds. This includes the Analogue portable system and other Game Boy compatible devices.
