A downloadable game

This is a game where you are trying to find your brother in an abandoned mansion.

For some reason I started working on a game content only in 6 days before jam ends, so game is unfinished and cannot be completed. But you can walk around and... look around anyway.

Game has been tested on DSi and 3DS, but it should also work on a regular DS.
Special for Retro Platform Jam #1

Some of the textures are from soviettextures.com

Controls:

Should run on Nintendo DS, DSi, and 3DS.

On a PC and Android, I recommend the melonDS emulator.

Don't use DraStic, it has some weird sound issues in the game...

can someone show me how to transfer and play these games on a ds lite

you need a flash cart, the ds lite doesnt have an os

interesting so far... hope you're still working on it!

This is awesome! I hope you finish it!

do you still plan on working on this project? i would love to see more added to your game.

I'd like to finish this project someday. It would be great to finish it for the 20th NDS anniversary, but I can't guarantee that 😄

What did you use to create a game for DS?

I used this libnds.devkitpro.org

I'd never expect someone to make a game for DS in 2021. I have to check it out!
