Kirby's Dreamland 2 DX released Anonymous Sun Apr 23 21:26:33 2023 No.9847885 [Reply] [Original]

Another black and white game colorized. Is there a chance we'll eventually see the entire gameboy library colorized?

This particular one is also enhanced:
FEATURES BREAKDOWN

Full Colorization - All backgrounds, tilesets, and sprites have been fully colorized, taking full advantage of the GBC’s graphics capabilities.
Extra Visual Snazz - Smoother fade effects, some color animation, and other little details to push the hardware just a bit more.
Slowdown Eliminated - The GBC’s double speed mode is enabled to diminish virtually any lag present in the original game.
All-new Settings Menu - Change the Status Bar Color, toggle color animation in the Status Bar, or toggle the Animal Friends’ BGMs interrupting the level music.
SGB Support Intact - Play with the SGB border enabled in emulators that support the unofficial “SGB+GBC” mode.

I wouldn't want it being replaced completely, though. Maybe just have each buddy's theme take over for the very first stage where you can meet each one (which I think was 1-2, 2-2, and 3-2) and then normal stage music for all other times.

Nope. Nobody would ever spend time make a colour version of Gold, Tennis or even Alleyway, despite all of them being best sellers on the system.

"Retro gaming" only cares about a few select genres.

There's 3 of them. This one is bug-fixed one:

It really just depends on who decides to do it, and if anyone uses the Game Boy Colorizer, expect it to break something like it did for the older Metroid 2 hacks.
