The Blue Cartridge

Author Comments

This game is a full reimagination of El Pendrive Azul creepypasta that turns an old and short story into a pretty big, creepy and bizarre adventure.


Story: The year's 2008. While you were wandering around a garage sale, your attention was drawn to a strange Gameboy Color cartridge. It was a simple cartridge in the blue shell with a text written on it saying "Sonic Advanture 7". Your curiosity took over you, and you decided to buy this cartridge. Upon getting back home, you inserted it in your Gameboy Advance to give it a try.

Yet something, or someone, was waiting for you to do that for a long, long time.


Controls:

Z - A button

I can't lie, this is a really good game but i do have some problems with it:

Pros: I like how the bootleg style is emulated perfectly here!
I like the tight controls, it makes you more careful and precise.
The music also is perfectly emulated too.

Cons:
The physics themselves make the controls terrible at the same time, it's like you're a boulder.
The music DOES get annoying after a while, especially with that bitcrunched tune.
You also feel like you're making a lot of blind jumps mostly and that was what made me die so many times.
Also, i feel like the horror aspect is too noticeable already because the HUD couldn't have been glitched unless the cartridge was damaged or messed up.
Speaking of aspects, the window is way too zoomed in. I feel like this would have made way more sense as a GB hack than a GBA hack because a GBA hack would have at least added some more colors.
I don't really like how Sonic is mostly blue here, if that makes sense. What i mean is that every part of him is blue to his shoes from his eyes.
Also, i get this is a romhack but isn't Sonic supposed to roll? This is more of a nitpick if anything, but i don't really like how they forgot to add some of the blue blur's most famous moves.
The levels are also way too short for a "romhack" but that probably makes sense, due to the small window.

Overall, 2.5/5 stars. A decent retry on the El Pendrive creepypasta, but still manages to fall flat on it's face with it's many shortcomings.

JOJO REFERENCE?! (the joke is that u said bizzare adventure and thanks for doing this spanish creepypasta a game because i dreamed to play this to get more main charecter pespective and the gravity of the jumps are very bad but im pro so it wasnt a problem)

this kind of sucks balls im sorry

TheRealBruceCat responds:

I understand everything, but I would like to hear a more detailed criticism to understand what exactly made you dislike this game that much.

This was a good game, I believe the main fault of this game is its quite tough and lacks the 'Sonic game' feel simply because its very platform focused instead of the usual 'gotta go fast' type gameplay that an early sega sonic game would have.

TheRealBruceCat responds:

Thank you for the criticism. The issue is that this game is more based on a gbc bootleg rather than on an official Sonic game.
