The Minotaur's Labyrinth is a retelling of the epic myth for Game Boy. (YES! It's playable on real hardware!)

Delve through six handmade levels, rescue your fellow Athenians, and slay the Minotaur. Each play through is guaranteed to be unique.

This project was really exciting to work on, and having it be my first game jam made the whole experience even more memorable. I'd love to hear what you think of it, and I hope you enjoy it just as much as I had making it!

Note to Game Boy players: the game runs [excruciatingly] slow on real hardware.
