Gamefriend

Gamefriend is a little game/application for the Game Boy family that serves as a toolkit for managing stress, anxiety, cognitive distortions, etc. I originally started it as a way to experiment with GB Studio.

Gamefriend includes four modes: square breathing, categorization, a dandelion-themed mindfulness exercise, and 5-4-3-2-1 grounding. 

All art, programming, and research is done by me, using GB Studio, Procreate, and Libresprite.

Controls:

This game is not a substitute for professional diagnosis and treatment. If you are in crisis, please look through this list of international help lines. If you or someone you know is in immediate danger of hurting themself or others, please call emergency services.

Comments, feedback, and constructive critique helps me to make this game the best it can be :) Please tell me if you are one of the 2 people coming from Bluesky and what account specifically you are coming from. I am very confused by that statistic specifically.
