This story is part of our Summer Gaming Marathon series. Digital Trends can exclusively reveal that ModRetro is publishing Chantey , a pirate-themed metal rhythm game from Greek indie game studio Gortyn Code that’s coming to both Game Boy and Chromatic .
Chantey is an 8-bit open-world rhythm game built to work on the original Game Boy and follows an up-and-coming pirate as he gets swept up in a conflict between descendants of the legendary Nightingale Pirate and collects mystical sea chanteys. It features a soundtrack with original pirate metal tracks and chiptune versions of sea chanteys such as Drunken Sailor and Bully in the Alley. Check out its reveal trailer below to see the game in action.
“Unlike the top-down adventure elements, there were no major Game Boy game references to work off of, to base the rhythm sections on,” Apostolakis says. “I had to try with several different prototypes, scene layouts, and optimization tricks before I finally found a way to implement the synchronization and reaction-heavy gameplay in a way that made the note-matching responsive and fun to play.
