OST?
This was incredible. Can't state how much I enjoyed this.....
This is a great game. I hope a sequel comes out at a reasonable price if it is necessary to pay. I loved this game. It is really great and entertaining to play.
Muito bom esse game. Tem algum lugar que posso upar um mapa ? Pois estou criando um do game todo conforme jogo.
Is there a way to save the game progress or I should complete it on one sit?
was fun, but I had to rename the rom without the accent mark in order to load it on my Anbernic
What a great little game!
Cool concept, Clear visuals, nice Soundtrack, precise control, easy to learn hard to master, short but sweet and this runs on an real NES, very impressive!
Hi i was wondering if you would like to make physical NES carts , let me know, i do this for a living. Id be more than happy to work with you. We can work togheter and be partners . I have a shop on etsy and i would love to sell this game for you. I have my own high quality 5V circuitry .
Get back to me if you are interested, i can give you a cut everytime i sell one.
Heres my email address

Once i have multiple developers working with me i will create a website to make this even more official and to push more sales
thanks for your time and let me know if you have any questions
Yo, this game is super rad! The controls are silky smooth and the graphics are more polished than lots of official NES games.
Thanks for the good time!
Hello! A few years ago I found this video game on a page that is dedicated to uploading homebrew games and thanks to this game I fell in love with homebrew games! thanks dude!
I found all 8 ducks! Thanks for the fun challenge and lovely game :)
I had a lovely time playing Böbl! What a fun game, and impressive you managed to make it for the NES!
What a nice and enjoyable game!!. I was a bit sad tho, to find out it's kind of short, getting to the end by "mistake" (trying to find the ducks I was missing). It's amazing how such a "minimalistic" game, with simple mechanics can achieve to give you a great afternoon.
Very nice, but sometimes difficult game of skill that we just discovered by accident. Our German-language review can be found in our recorded livestream starting at 06:24:20. Subscription to our YouTube or Twitch channel is welcome. 🙂
For some reason the 1.2 doesn't work on 3DS (exported to .cia), only 1.1 works. I'm using "New Super Ultimate Injector"
I had a lot of compatibility issues with the injector and with VirtualNES (this game literally crashes it). RetroArch works with this and a couple other games just fine for me. My original 3DS is too slow on everything except for QuickNES, but a new 2DS or 3DS may be able to use whatever core.
This is the guide I used. Trying to install through the Universal Updater seems to not actually install the application...

Wow! What a great game! I've never owned a NES back in the days but it's a lazy weekend, beautiful weather outside and I was sitting on our balcony with my Anbernic RG405M, looking for something new to play and nust found this game. I've watched the video and had to buy the game. I love it, thank you for the great work! 😊 👍
This is a fantastic game
Very nice game. So cool. Bravo!
super nice game.

I promoted your game on my site.
I GLITCHED BÖBL AGAIN
i glitched the game and I’m playing it on Provenance
This game was really fun! My favorite part was the cloud section, wish I could hear that cute music in at least a few more screens
@shinystar: Yes, sadly I had to use Retroarch for the first time on my NES Classic MINI. No longer nativ running it seems.
The 1.1 version works on my EZ flash omega but the 1.2 version doesn't
Same here with 3DS
great game i love how it was a little hard!

I tried to study the game as much as I could. By the way, the site speaks Turkish.
I'm having trouble breaking blocks and timing my bounce with the iron bobl.
still the best game on the NES after all these years...
I know I've already played through the entire game, but with this new update I think it's absolutely necessary to do it again
I already played this game before seeing this lol
now I know ware it came from
I have been playing this game for a while now, and I simply LOVE the way its made! The level design is so amazing.. I was about to start drawing my own map of the world last time I took a break from it.. Btw.. Is there such a thing I could purchase maybe...?
This bubblevania is awesome!!!
Here my review in spanish: https://retroorama.blogspot.com/2021/06/indie-review-bobl.html
cool
If I wanted to make a physical copy of Bobl, will the Broke Studios unrom pcb work just fine, and will it still function on the Retrousb AVS?
Hello?
Wooooo
I really love how that levels created to this game. 💙
This game is so cool! the level design is so smart, the art is so nostalgiac, the music is fuggedaboutit :italianhands:. I can't stop playing! Great job! :)
New from the team behind micro mages: Not echo the dolphin! Only for nes.*
