Worth noting there's a "Made with GB studio" tag on itch.io

I think there's been a few game jams around it as well

A lot of them run perfectly well on original hardware too, if you happen to have a flash cart laying around you can often get the digital editions for cheap, and bigger games pop up on incub8 games and a few other spots with physical copies. I picked up The Machine, and it was probably my GOTY 2023. I put so much time into it at work on breaks, and I still haven’t gotten all the achievements.
