"WOOOOOAAAAAH!" -Baldi

Web Version

About:

Baldi Builder Retooled is the upcoming remake to Baldi Builder (Classic), with everything being updated to now feature the single-screen level creator!

This GameBoy fangame aims to finally allow you to create *mostly* any kind of Baldi's Basics level you want!


Currently Implemented Features:

  • A Single-Screen Level Creator & Player.
  • 5 Toggleable NPCs. (+1 Extra NPC for Baldi)
  • 3 Save Files with 4 Level Slots each. (Up to 12 Levels in Total!)
  • A Naming System for Levels.
  • A Customizable Timer for Level Completion.
  • An Interactable Tutorial for Beginners.
  • A Copying & Erasing System for Levels.
  • A Local Level Sharing System. (With the use of a GB Link Cable!)
  • 3 Extra Minigames.
  • Rumble Functions for Compatible Emulators or Hardware.
  • Supports GB & SGB Hardware.

Features Soon to be Added:

  • A Level Importing & Exporting System. (With the use of long level codes!)
  • Support for CGB. (Full Color with Double CPU!)

Limitations:

Since this fangame is made to work on such limited hardware, there are some limitations to keep in mind!

  • The size of every level is restricted to a single screen! (18 Tiles * 15 Tiles)
  • NPC AI isn't too advanced.
  • Heavier slowdowns will occur with more NPCs enabled. (Recommended Amount: 3)
  • Notable NPCs like Principal of The Thing, couldn't be implemented in the fangame.

Known Bugs:

  • Tours cannot be saved due to a bug with how they're loaded incorrectly.
  • The menu for adding & removing NPCs isn't hiding any on-screen sprites.
  • The music in the playing tutorial can get overwritten.

AMAZING MOD!!! I made a video. I cannot wait for the full release :). I made a video btw. It's 1 of 10.

Thanks for playing! I'll soon add a control guide to the web browser version to help with how the fangame plays.

This demo is perfect, I just missed the chunks from the old version 

Thanks, it's for the better since they've made those levels be very limiting to create!
