Black Castle 2
Black Castle 2 is an action platformer for the Gameboy. You can play the game using an emulator or a Gameboy compatible device.
Fight your way through five stages, find new weapons, hidden passages and items. Defeat the boss at the end of each stage and face the evil warlock Malakar in your final battle.
Years ago, the knight Aric defeated the sinister warlock Malakar in the Black Castle. But the victory was deceptive: Malakar survived, hidden in the shadows, and gathered new powers. Now he is back and stronger than ever.
With a ritual, he wants to plunge the world into eternal night. He has chosen Lyra, Aric's sister, as his sacrifice. Aric swears revenge. With his old blade, he sets off once again for the Black Castle...
Press the A button to jump and the B button to attack. The D-Pad left and right is used to advance through the castle. Press the start button to begin your quest or pause the action. The select button is not used.

amazing game! Loved the First one already. Made it to stage 4 on the fist run! Music and gameplay improved a lot! Will there be a pyhsical release?
This looks fantastic! I really enjoy your clean/clear graphics. Game mechanics feel great too. I'm excited to spend some time playing it!
Thanks!
I haven't finished BC1 yet but I really enjoyed it. Looking forward to checking this out

I finished Black Castle 1 on my Anbernic handheld a long time ago. The game is really interesting, especially for the hidden platforms and entrances.
Thanks, Black Castle 2 has also a lot of hidden secrects to discover.

Bonjour,
J'avais acheté la cartouche de Black Castle, qui a été un de mes premiers homebrews Gameboy :)
Content de retrouver l'univers pour un second opus, je viens de faire un test jusqu'au niveau 2 et j'adore les nouveautés et améliorations,
Merci et hâte d'en découvrir davantage !
Merci, il y a encore plus à découvrir dans les autres niveaux!
Can't wait to play, absolutely loved the first one and even purchased the boxed release. Great to see you are still producing games, some of the best homebrews on the GB
Thanks, really appreciate your comment!
Fun little platformer!
You made the music too?
Also since I'm into GBStudio recently. I wonder how you made bullets hit the walls. I guess some custom projectiles.c file modification?
Don't think he's made it in GBS? I recall the first wasn't in GBS. Could be wrong?
Found the game on Bluesky and GBStudio was hashtagged, that's why I assumed it was made in GBStudio.
Ahh.. maybe it is then?!
In the past they’ve said the tag is an engagement hack. :)
I think it’s straight GBDK, at least according to gbtoolsid: https://bbbbbr.github.io/gbtoolsid_web/
Yes, sorry. Its made in GBDK. I used the GBStudio tag to raise interest on the project.
Thanks, the music was done by the awesome Retro Asobi.
Congrats! Awesome to see a sequel. It has all the feel of the original with lots and lots more. Plays really well, feels very fair and balanced.
Thanks, I tried to keep the basic mechanics.
