About

You and your little brother go trick-or-treating but you have your halloween candy stolen!! There is only one thing to do. Grab your water blaster and your grabber claw and go get your candy back!!!

Cats and Spooks was made in 10 days for GBJAM 12. The theme was "Spooky". It was developed using ZGB, a game engine that lets you write Gameboy games in C. The music was composed using hUGETracker. The web version uses this javascript emulator.

How to Play

Shoot the enemies in halloween constumes with your water blaster to stun them. While they are stunned, use your grabber claw to steal their candy bags. Get 100 candies to move onto the next stage.

Your little brother is holding the candy bag, so make sure enemies don't attack him. If you run out of candy, you lose a life!

When i open the game, I'm stuck on a loading screen that it makes this game unplayable. 

Sorry, can you try a different emulator? I haven't seen this issue in the emulators I've used or on my gameboy so it could be an issue with the emulator 🤔

Cute, cute!  Great job turning it into a complete game such a short time!

Thank you!
