Loonies8192 is a mini retro puzzle game for DOS, PSP, 3DS, GBA, PSX, Android, NDS, Win32, N800, N900, N9, PocketCHIP, iOS, macOS, Vita and WebGL.

This simple puzzle game at some point fit into 8 KiB, hence the name. Since then, the focus has shifted to porting and support for various audio synths.

Installation

Load the multiboot ROM using gba-link-cable-rom-sender from a Wii or GameCube, or load the cartridge ROM with a flash cartridge.

User guide

There are 2x2-blocks falling down the top, with two different colors. The objective is to rotate and align the falling groups of blocks to create squares of the same block color once the blocks have landed.

A vertical line, known as the time line, sweeps through the playing field from left to right, erasing any completed single-color groups of blocks that it touches (typically 2×2 squares).

Controls

D-Pad - Move

A - Drop, Accept

Start - Exit, Abort
