A pixel-accurate-ish recreation of the original Nintendo Game Boy shell built with pure HTML, CSS, and a small amount of vanilla JavaScript. This project is less about gameplay and more about obsessive layout, spacing, and recreating the feel of old hardware in the browser. Right now it powers on, lights up, and plays the classic Nintendo boot animation. Long term, this is a sandbox for experimenting with browser-based UI, animations, and eventually interactive elements.
A walkthrough of the Game Boy DMG-001 web build. Covers the boot sequence, D-pad navigation, Pokedex menu flow, random Pokemon fetch, and more. YouTube description includes notes on the API, PostgreSQL storage, and deployments on AWS Amplify and Heroku.
