Test Drive (April's fool)
This is a homebrought game, run on Gameboy Color. Original version: Distinctive Software - Accolade, 1987 - Commodore 64. Created with GB-Studio 2.0.0 beta5!
Test Drive is different - a new standard of driving simulation game. You're probably thinking "that's what they all say". So don't listen to us. Read what Commodore User and Popular Computing Weekly said - "never have I encountered a game where the introductory screens make me want to play the game as much as this one". C.U. "...the graphics are out of this world. For many car enthusiast the game is essential. P.C.W"

4 days late, got fooled 4 times on April fools, and didn't notice you released a game but it looks impressive, alas it's just a prank >:)
It actually started out as if I was going to do it. Then I put a lot of energy into it and didn't feel like throwing it away when it was already so advanced. Unfortunately, it's beyond my abilities to finish it, but this April Fool's Day came at a good time. :)
Is this an April Fools prank? Just asking, given the date it was published on itch.
Yes, that's exactly it. :) Although the users also joked about it, because some people were able to play with it. :)
So it's just not an actual GBC port of Test Drive, then. I was looking forward to a proper port, but alas...
Loved this game on the c64!
