Pebboy

Turn a .gb game file you own into an app for the Pebble Time 2. It all happens in your browser. Your game isn't uploaded anywhere.

1. Pick a game

or drop one on this page

2. Set it up

Pick a game first.

3. Put it on your watch

  1. Get the .pbw file onto your phone.
  2. Open it with the Pebble app. On iPhone: tap it, then Share, then Pebble. On Android: tap it and pick Pebble.
  3. It should open on your watch right away. If not, it's in the app list.

A tap of Select lands a beat late, so the watch can tell it apart from a direction switch. Hold Select when you need A right now.

Notes

Works on the Pebble Time 2. Plays .gb games up to 1 MB, and colour games that also run on the original model. Saves are kept when they fit in the 4 KB an app gets. No sound yet.

Only use games you own or that are free to share. Every .pbw Pebboy makes contains the whole game, so don't share or upload ones made from commercial games.

Pebboy is a free fan project, provided as is with no warranty. You're responsible for the files you use with it and what you do with the apps it makes.
