Wonderful puzzle game, took me a second to get used to holding the tile then moving after I got used to that, it was a ton of fun. I made a gameplay video and posted it to YouTube. Wonderfully done!
Hi! A friend of mine bought the game for me and i tried to play it on my smartphone (I don't have a Gameboy, or any other portable console), but the game crashes right after the Gameboy boot animation. The emulator i'm using is Pizza Boy Pro, could you take a look and see if there is a solution?
Some versions of Pizza Boy are GBA-only so may not support the GB/GBC instructions that make up the game code. There is are also free and paid versions of Pizza Boy GBC if you like their UI. Double check and make sure your version supports GB/GBC games.
The emulator I recommend for Android to play Fydo's Magic Tiles is GBC.emu. I personally use an older version called GBC.emu Free V.1.5.12, as newer versions are paywalled. APKPure is a repo of old publicly available apps and is fairly safe place to download them from.
Yes, i'm using Pizza Boy GBC Pro, sorry, i forget the "GBC". I like to use GBC Bios, and when i'm booting the game, the emulator freezes in N1nt3ndo logo. I have others homebrew games and this happen only with Fydo's.
$4 for an awesome game? Instant buy! I am playing this on my Analogue Pocket and it's really fun! I will definitely be buying this physically when It's available! This is a wonderful game! Thanks for making it!
well it not since you have set up ,where does not cost money to download it but have no file to download... mean if you did payed there still be no file to download... also it annoying how free but i can't play in a emulator or on a flash cart and you can,t even pay for psychical cart since there solded out...
I'm happy you enjoy the game. The game is 'pay what you like' to accommodate the physical sales but you won't be able to see the downloads if you don't pay, or if you pay less than $4. If you'd like to purchase a physical copy, I will have more for sale in the future, probably mid-2023. The small profit from ROM downloads and the first run helps me produce the next batch of cartridges and put a little bit towards producing my next Game Boy game.
Congrats on selling out, quick question though, kinda a newb on this site and was lucky to snag a cartridge. Should I be looking out for a shipment confirmation email? This game is super cute and cant wait to play it on my GBC!
Hey, if I have mailed it, I think it will be marked 'Fulfilled' on your download page (which you can access through your purchase confirmation email or your personal 'Downloads' page). I have a handful more to send out this week but send me an email (ohnotomsutton@gmail) from your itch.io account email and I'll check the status and get back to you as soon as I can. If you are not in Canada/US it could take up to 6 weeks to see it arrive but I've kept a few extra just in case some get misplaced at customs or lost in transit.
ONLY MY THIRD ATTEMPT I GOT 999 IN CUTE MODE >:) very addicting, great music, adorable graphics, 10/10 not even kidding. this whole game reeks of charm and quality. (in a good way!) I LOVE THIS AAAAAA
You can complete the game if you collect all the Star Tiles, which might include getting 999 on the highest speed? Who knows.... the star tiles are mysterious and magical.
So I don't know if I did something wrong or if there's a second page or something, but when I click "Get for $50.00", it only asks me for credit card details but not mailing address... Am I doing something wrong? How do I get my hands on this cartridge?
There is a short form to fill out after the payment. If you're concerned you paid but haven't claimed the reward, send me an email at ohnotomsutton@gmail.com with the email attached to your itch account, and I can confirm the status of your purchase.
I was today years old when I realized you could move horizontally AND vertically in Fydo's Magic Tiles. This game is super cute and fun, and can't wait for the physical edition to play this on my physical gameboy and Super Gameboy!
This games is a lot of fun. From the sound design to the game mechanics. My only critique is there is some odd behavior when playing on actual hardware, e.g. screen wipes are chunky and some screens the background doesn't load.
I appreciate the good feedback. I would be grateful if you could you shoot me an email with more info about any bugs, if you have a chance. ohnotomsutton@gmail.com. Thanks!
I like to check out new Gameboy stuff on itch, but I usually don't end up getting sucked in for this long! Really love your game, perfect distillation of the "short-session tile-matchers" that Gameboy is perfect for. Really got into a flow state while playing. And I won! Great work.
Absolutely love this game, it looks incredibly polished for a 32k rom and it plays great (Even if I kinda suck at it), the sound part is a little bit bare perhaps, I can imagine space is really limited so stuff like channel 1 sweeps are used for sfx, the music is nice though. Not sure if the goal was to put the whole game on 32k but perhaps there could be some "deluxe" version with features such as highscore saving and the tunes listed as unused on the soundtrack, regardless, great job!
Hey Fydo! How do supporters pledge money for a physical copy? I got an email announcing what’s included in the different tiers but not sure how to pledge :)
The game and donations will be released on September 1st around 7AM Pacific Time. To get the cartridge when the game is out, CLICK THE "GET FOR $50" BUTTON NEXT TO THE REWARD DESCRIPTION, otherwise you won't have properly claimed it. Hope that helps!

My best score is 666 should I be concerned?
Totally normal, simply let the demonic forces enter your soul and you'll do better next time!

Insanely addictive! I love it!
one of those games that suck you in for hours, although you just wanted to have a quick burst of gameplay :D
So happy you enjoy it!
Hi, are there physical copies ready to ship? Asking for a birthday present.
I typically ship once a week, and then it can take 1-2 weeks to arrive if you are in the US. But I do have some copies ready to go!
I'm already hopelessly addicted to this game. My thumbs hurt with joy!

Let me know if that's helpful!

I think the only actionable recommendation I can make is to try a different emulator. Wish I could help more.

Thank you so much! More physical releases coming later this year.
It's so great on the Pocket! That soundtrack!
super cute I loved it
Cute
why did you take the download down?
I didn't, the game is free to play online, and costs $4 to download.

'bout fourth try for me. So tricky but fair!
Thank you for sharing this. 💙
I lost so much of my day playing this, having a blast!
This is such a lovely game!! Fantastic art and music, wonderful gameplay
Made it to 323! What's the high score?

This game is really fun and also looks fantastic, the music is great too specially I loved the "tense" music :P

Love it!
So cute, good tunes, nicely polished. Everything feels dialed in just right. Now just need to play enough to get some combos and build strategy.
BTW, since the web version is using binjgb there is also usb gamepad support. May need to click to set focus for the browser.
USB/Bluetooth/etc Gamepad:

This is a blast! Love the vibes!
A game made after my favorite green cat with a wizard hat?! I'm in!
I must have that physical release! Great game Tom!
Great Game!
Really fun game!! Glad I got to see the end!

this game is so fun and the graphics are so good. Once I found out I can move blocks up and down it almost got too easy
I suggest you try the top speed!
Hello I am fydo and I approve of this game. It’s fantastic, magical AND fun!
Also Tom is awesome.
Hey Fydo! How do supporters pledge money for a physical copy? I got an email announcing what’s included in the different tiers but not sure how to pledge :)
The game and donations will be released on September 1st around 7AM Pacific Time. To get the cartridge when the game is out, CLICK THE "GET FOR $50" BUTTON NEXT TO THE REWARD DESCRIPTION, otherwise you won't have properly claimed it. Hope that helps!
That absolutely helps! Thank you for responding so quickly!
Might say, "Support this Project".... this is my first game release so I'm figuring it out, too.
Ah there is a button that says "Get for $50" next to the reward. Advice to anyone else would be to click that.
