Tiny Iron (Iron Lung GB)
This is Tiny Iron, a remake of Iron Lung if it was made for the Gameboy. It plays very similarly to the original, keeps all lore, secrets, and important aspects of the game, but minimised to fit in just less than 3 megabytes (this is excluding the stuff that let you play in your browser).
"Set entirely within a claustrophobic one-man submarine nicknamed the "Iron Lung," you must blindly navigate an ocean of blood to take photographs of key locations, and hope whatever lives below doesn't find you. There is only a single porthole on the sub, and it needs to be closed due to depth pressure, so you have to navigate purely via an incomplete map, proximity sensors, sound, and a primitive external camera which can be used to take the pictures you need to complete your mission, or to get a grainy low resolution visual of what's happening outside."

Can you run it on a real Gameboy? Like through a flash cart or emulator.
Unfortunately, no. This game runs on a custom engine I made that's supposed to look like a Gameboy game. I do have Gameboy Studio, so if I wanted to, I could remake this and turn it into a real GB ROM.
Tiny lung is very charming and it's just so cool. Best of luck with future projects!
Thanks!
