I think it's safe to say this was originally made with the anticipation that glitches would be the theme? While I haven't found the way to beat the game in ten seconds, I liked the game boy layout and the glitches you can do. :)
The idea was to make a game speedrunable in 10 seconds but I didn't find any interesting way to do it without using glitches so, yeah, it ended to be more suitable for the "glitches" theme :( Thanks for your test !
I'm not sure I get the thing about the glitches, without which the relation to the theme is entirely lost.
I do love the Game Boy aesthetic. It might have worked even better with double-size pixels; the original Game Boy was only 160x144.
The sounds are a bit of a mismatch with that, unfortunately. And does the voice at the end say "thank you" or "f*ck you"? I'll assume it's the former :)
Very complete game. Really liked it. LOVE the graphics and ther power switch mechanism made me think of Pokemon Silver/ Gold, good old times ^^

Seems well enough made, but it's not really the game I would like to play for a longer time, which I would have to do to understand how it works. Still looks very polished for a 48 hours effort! However, the music get's on your nerves pretty quickly. :(
Loved the idea of the game with the intro at the start, with lots more creative glitches this game would be pretty amazing, although I still liked it anyways :P
If you wan't another challenge, here is one : You must finish the game (in any time) without defeating the boss and without using the Sword Bounce. (Yeah, this need the "Invincibility glitch"... )
I really like this game idea. You really did a great job imitating the GameBoy visuals and glitches. I finally have the solution sorted out and can beat the game in 8 seconds. The glitched out victory screen is awesome.

For those of you who can't finish the game, here is the name of the three glitches you must use :
- Save Glitch
- Door Bounce
- Sword Bounce
