Predator in 20 seconds

This is my entry into the 20 Second Game Jam for 2022. It's a love letter to Predator, one of my favourite films, and Green Beret, one of my favourite retro games. In this short game the Predator has initiated it's self destruct mechanism giving Dutch just 20 seconds to escape the blast radius. Good luck!

This was neat, like a mix between the ol' Lost World GB game I used to play a lot as a kid as well as Dinorun. Which I used to play a lot as a teen haha. Nice.

I thoroughly enjoyed this game and included it in a fan-made Predator video. Please keep up the great work.

I've enclosed it in my compilation video as I can hope more people will play & support you :)

This is awesome, I'm not sure my tiny 20 second game deserves to be among the great collection of games you played but I appreciate the support. I have subscribed to your channel and look forward to digging into more of your content!

I like how it plays very retro style, I'm referring to how the character runs for example, it doesn't start immediately fast and seems ti have a kind of inertia.

Let me ask you a question: you say it is intended to be playe on game boy, but how? :) I mean with an emulator is possible but with a real Game Boy?

Thanks and keep it up!

You'd need a flashcart like an everdrive or ez flash to play this on real hardware

Wow, thanks a lot. I didn’t even know these cartridges exist!

In the 'Edit Game' section where you can type in the game details there's a Table Icon, if you click that you can insert tables into your content. The icon is 6 rectangles in two columns of 3 - I hope that makes sense!

Yo thats some cool stuff dude didnt know about this feature

Wow, It looks great! Is it part of a full game?

Thank you.  This is just 20 seconds of gameplay that was created as part of the 20 Second Game Jam. Maybe there's some scope to flesh it out into a full game but it was designed to be a short, sharp burst of gameplay designed to leave the player wanting more.

Ok, mission accomplished, we want more xD

Nice little game. I wish the controls were more responsive though.
