I've been continuing my fun with Dream Land 2 by compiling prerelease media (https://tcrf.net/Prerelease:Kirby%27s_Dream_Land_2), mainly screenshots from some old mags. One really neat difference I've found is in EGM 66's Shoshinkai coverage for January 1995, where the SGB border used to have completely different artwork for the player characters!
Especially Kirby, look at his face and pose.
These screenshots of Kirby's Dream Land 2 from Volume 68 of Nintendo Power show visual differences from the final game, with tweaks in level design and changes to status bar graphics, especially the shorter 12 HP points instead of the wider 6.
However, as shown in the last screenshot, the final game still stores Kirby's health out of 12 rather than 6 (see 00:A04C in RAM), and the HP bar retains unused behavior of displaying an HP point as a half!
This has been a really hectic month, but nonetheless, I want to share another #ScreenshotSaturday with you all. 
This is my #GameBoy game, Taiyaki Fabulous Museum of Fish, as shown with its #SuperGameBoy frame.
#TaiFab is a game where you explore a strange island, meet silly characters, and solve #picross (#nonogram) puzzles for progress. I am working on the final bug fixes now, and I'm so excited to release the game next month!
I did some quick tests with swapping out the green for other colors to give the maze a different feel. I'm not sure if every color works super well alongside violet, but I think these work to some degree at least. It'd be fun to have some bright cyan icy levels, or some desert-y levels with a sandy color.
I probably could tweak the violet itself to better match the main maze color too, but it's kind of nice to have it consistent.

This #MastoArt is a collection of the #PixelArt in #SuperGameBoy colors that I first posted on this blog when I was talking about my old survival game concept. It's a little bit of a throwback post because I was out of town all weekend. I hope you all had an excellent Sunday.

Nintendo's Super Game Boy allows you to play Game Boy games on the SNES console. It essentially contains all the internals of the Game Boy along with support for additional color effects. A similar accessory was also released for the later GameCube, enabling you to play Game Boy Advance games as well.
the #SuperGameboy can give the illusion that original games are full colour by clever use of its default palette.
it uses red mostly. but the darks in the background lean towards the purple, and the lights in the sprites lean towards the yellow.
really makes things pop! 
Released the pool waves as a standalone ROM.
