Heebie-GBs is a LSDj-based cartridge album, consists of a compilation of eerie tunes released on Halloween. It is made in a dedicated homebrew cartridge, using all new parts, and built from the ground up. Two parts have been released so far, in 2014 and 2019. Freebie-GBs is the public demo version accompanying the cartridge release.
This second installment Heebie-GBs after the 2014 edition was set to release in 2018, but the cartridge release was delayed for one year because of a software bug that caused music slowdown. The bug was eventually solved and the ROM was released as Heebie-GBs 2019/Freebie-GBs 2019. The 2019 version is recommended over the 2018 version for a better listening experience, as they're materially identical apart from the bug and including one additional track.
Track list:
- nordloef - Scarecrow Harvest.
- Ramstorm - Skeletal Longevity. (Credited in the 2018 preview ROM as Arpsonix)
- Immortan - Murder by Moonlight.
- Graz - Death Becomes.
- Tommy Creep - Ghost Emoji.
- donotrunwithpixels - Parthenogenesis.
- The Other Days - Super Château Ultra.
Controls
- Up/Down - Previous/Next track
- Select - disable animations (intended to combat the slowdown bug in the 2018 version.)
Differences to the final 2019 release version
- The 2018 version has a slowdown bug, affecting the pumpkin and skeleton scenes. This bug can be counteracted by pressing select to disable the animation.
- The artist Ramstorm is credited as Arpsonix.
- The track Rebb - Ken Perlin's Noise is not included in the 2018 version.
- The tracks are not numbered in the player UI.
- The Super Château Ultra is missing the circumflex, in other words the ^ in the French letter â.
- The 2018 does not use hash collision trick to set the GBC palette and is instead shown using the standard palette if run on a GBC.
