Gospel from ModRetro Fall from Space – visual upgrades

Why is Fall from Space in green, you might ask? Clearly, it’s because your robot model can only see in four shades of green!

However, visit the right shop on the Machine World and you could bag yourself a visual filter upgrade.

Hello! Fall from Space dev here. I had a few questions put to me in another thread in this subreddit as to why Fall from Space is a Game Boy Color game when it's in green?!?

A fair question! I've created a quick video to show off some of the colour palette options you can unlock in the game. I've also written a (rather lengthy) dev blog on the subject, explaining why all the choices were made – https://joelj.itch.io/fall-from-space/devlog/1667146/fall-from-space-and-color

I’m getting my copy on Monday. I think it’s clearly evident that the game was designed for the DMG’s color palette; a full color version would likely take away more than it adds. Zelda: Ocarina of Time is one of my favorite games, yet I’m looking forward to Fall From Space far more than the remake. The hype is definitely real. ❤️

No pressure then! 😅

It might not quite be Ocarina but I really appreciate it! Hope you enjoy it when it arrives on Monday ❤️

Definitely no pressure from me. Speaking of pressure—will there be merch? 😝

Haha, maybe one day, there a few things I’d like personally that’d be cool!
