Setup
It can be played in the browser with a keyboard or even on mobile! With the downloadable .gb file, it can be played on an emulator or on actual hardware (DMG, GBC, GBA, SGB, GameCube GB Player, Analogue Pocket, etc) using a flash cart.
The game ROM is packed into a 32kb file! The PCB requires no MBC or battery (like Tetris!). The lack of battery does mean no saving so once the game resets so do the scores.
