notenogram (read as "note-nogram") is a chill analog-styled Gameboy Advance picross/nonogram/hanjie/griddler game, with some gameplay elements inspired by Battle Picross by Sean Reid.
It was made with Butano for GBA Jam 2022 (3rd place).
Features
- 12 original 12x12 picross puzzles to solve.
- Cringy Japanese anime girl voice clips provided by kva64.
- Story mode with three different endings decided by your picross solving skills.
- Creator mode that allows making puzzles and sharing them via GBA save files (not tested on flashcarts).
- Original character cameos of some sort.
Controls
A - Color the square the pen cursor is pointing at/confirm option
B - Cross out the square/exit menu
D-Pad - Move the cursor
Select - Exit puzzle screen
Start (creator mode) - Save current puzzle (see known issues)
L/R (creator mode) - Toggle custom puzzle slots in save memory to write to (only three slots available, writing to occupied slots will overwrite them without notifying)
Hint: Pressing and holding a directional key while holding A or B on the picross grid will mark otherwise empty squares as either colored or crossed out in the selected direction.
