Turnout Blaster is a classic arcade shooter for the original Nintendo Game Boy (DMG) โ€“ developed in C with GBDK and built for real retro hardware.

Pilot your spaceship through an ever-faster field of asteroids, stars, enemies and other hazards. Dodge, shoot, collect ammo and power-ups, and try to survive as long as possible. Every three minutes the screen flashes WARNING! โ€“ and a new boss enters the fight with its own attack pattern.
