About this game

Solar Guard is a 2021 Game Boy Advance shooter / action game by Deft Spade.

A space shooter where you complete various missions that take place in the solar system. This is a homebrew Game Boy Advance game made for GBA Jam 2021. This game is in a state of development (i.e. any build thus far can be considered a development version as the game is not feature/content complete). Please note that since this game is still in development, there is a fair probability that you may encounter an issue(s)/bug(s). This game was made using GValiente's Butano engine). Butano is a modern C++ high level engine for the Game Boy Advance. Running the Game Using a GBA Emulator on PC To run the game, download a GBA emulator (mGBA is a good choice) and run the.gba file in it. Alternatively, any hardware that runs.gba files on an actual Game Boy Advance (e.g. Everdrive or EZ-FLASH) can be used to run Solar Guard on a GBA (or DS with backwards compatibility). If you have a modded 3DS, the.cia file made using Ultimate GBA VC Injector for 3DS by Asdolo can be used to install Solar Guard as a Virtual Console GBA title. Running the.gba file using a GBA emulator that runs on the 3DS also gets the job done. Open Source on GitHub This game is open source on GitHub, under the GPL-3.0 license.
