My name is MadShmupper and I'm part of a group of developers working on porting games to handheld Linux devices. Our project is named PortMaster(https://portmaster.games/) and we have an active Discord server in which you are very welcome to come check out any time.https://discord.gg/JxYBp9HTAY
For the past couple of years, we've added a nice amount of Gamemaker games to various Linux devices. Many of them ready to run.
We at PortMaster, firmly believe in reaching out to content creators/game authors like yourself to ask for consent in distributing their free game files within a ready to run port in PortMaster. Without your consent, the user will need to manually add their own obtained game files.
It would be fantastic if you could grant us permission to include your data.win and .ogg files of 'Grelox' within a packaged port as a ready to run game on PortMaster.
May we distribute the game file/s in question, please?
Your game would undoubtedly be a most excellent addition to these handheld devices. Especially in a "ready to run" format.
You and anyone else responsible for this rad gem will of course be properly thanked, noted, and linked accordingly. PortMaster will be responsible for the ports maintenance should any be needed. However, as the creator, you are welcome to come check us out and have any say you'd like involving said port.
Please note that we are not looking to, nor shall we take or accept monetary profit for any port, nor take credit for having created any of the games that we port unless otherwise true. Our primary goal is to introduce more games to our beloved PortMaster community and to showcase these game creations by excellent devs such as yourself.
I'll close this by thanking you for any consideration that you may lend towards our request!
THANK YOU🎩
Best regards, MadShmupper & Everyone at PortMaster
Nice Game. Finally someone have made a game with Master System pallete and style. Thank you for your generosity, cause making a game is a lot of work and takes a lot of time.. Nice you put many games for free. Hope one day you have enthusiasm to make a Platformer game with female protagonist, like El Viento, Valis. Or a Beat em Up with Master System or Mega Drive style palletes with female character too. It would be fair if these games were for pay. Success in your projects!
It's easily completable within an hour, once you get familiar with the maps. I was originally going to have a save, but the game ended up not being long enough to require one, which is why I went for infinite tries. It does benefit from practice, and to some degree, mapping. With saves it would become trivially easy.
I didn't mean quicksaves, just that the game should keep cleared levels cleared from on session to the next.
I cleared the first two levels, which took me a while. I imagined there would be a third one, but it turned out to be two. I played one of them for a bit and gave up (you don't necessarily have a lot of time to play at any given time). I quit the game and re-launched it to see if it had saved my progress. I was dissapointed.
I can't imagine I'm the only one in that case.
Again, it's a real shame because I was enjoying the game.

I am thrilled to hear this great news! Thanks so much!😃

Thanks for your comments. Grelox IS a female protagonist!
No save, that's a real shame. I won't finish the game if you have to spend hours on it without any break.

Maybe I should post the cheat modes...
<EDIT> As the game has been out a while, I have posted cheats on my website. This will help bypass the early levels you have completed.
Thanks!
If anyone is wondering, it's over there: http://www.sunteam.co.uk/grelox.html
By the way, hitting HOME on the main map crashes the game with the cheats enabled.
Don't do it then :P
Seriously, the cheats were actually more of a debug mode for me while testing so yeah, that's not a surprise.
Awesome game, is there a windowed mode please?
Does ALT+ENTER not work?
It does thanks, did a video last night for youtube covering levels 1-3
Thanks!
