This looks like an unreleased GBC game from way back and they may have released it now as a free-to-play game? Looks that way. It's actually a pretty fun game and the game ROM works on emulators and flashcarts.

Website: Grimace's Birthday Official Website - Play Game [grimacesbirthday.com]

You can download the game ROM directly from their website: Grimace's Birthday Official Website - Download Game [grimacesbirthday.com]

Wasn't sure whether to post this here as a free game, but it's so good that folks should definitely check out if they want a piece of nostalgia on the go.

I'm working on getting this on a few playable cartridges for friends. Unfortunately the way I do it makes them more expensive than a gimmick is worth but for my own collection I'm hyped to do the project.

That's a good idea as there's definitely people who'd buy a physical reproduction cartridge of it.

When I played this it reminded me of McKids.

It's a new game that was made via GB Studio.

It can be done cheaper, the cartridges I use are rewritable but are solder free and more or less a drag and drop solution. I'm sure someone will hop on making more economic versions but making it is part of the fun for me Smilie

Okay, it was pretty fun for what it is 😄
Downloaded my old boy (free emulator for Android) and was playing in a few minutes. Beat the game on easy in like 10-15 minutes. If you retro game I think it's worth booting it up 👍

Hearing about this reminds me of the old Noid and Cool Spot games.

EDIT:

I did not expect this to be like T&C Surf Design, lmao

This is a fact as it was recently confirmed in a news report.

Looks like you can pick one up on AliExpress for ~$8 shipped.
