The internet just got a bit more wonderful.
- Just upload your photo to the app and choose the option of the action towards it. For the gender swap, just select this category. Face Story will turn a boy into a girl, a girl into a boy, and, being honest, it does that quite good – at least on your edited picture you are not going to look like a humanoid with blurry features.
- Created in the days before cameras were embedded in literally everything we own, the Game Boy Camera was a brilliant little tool which, attached to a Game Boy or Game Boy Color, could snap pixelated photos to be displayed on your device’s screen.
- Most of the most expensive stuff wasn't necessary though, since Zoom is going to downscale it to 360p and put it in a 1 inch window on most screens anyway. You could easily do it with just a Game Boy Camera, Super Game Boy, standard SNES, and any capture device (even an old composite video one).
- Twitter user and game developer maple has created a website that’ll take your webcam or phone camera input and shove it through a blocky filter to display an image eerily accurate to the Game Boy camera of old. Give it a try by clicking here!
On Saturday a coder, animator, and electronic musician by the name of maple 'mavica' syrup published a free web app that lets anyone take Game Boy Camera-style photos with just their browser and a webcam. It's super fun.
Over Twitter direct message, mavica, who prefers it/it pronouns and a lowercase styling, explained that a 2014 app made by Christine Love led it to create an updated version of the late nineties classic camera toy. mavica recalled how Love's app, 'Interstellar Selfie Station,' helped it at an important moment in its life.
'[She'd] made the app back in 2014 but after a few months it got pulled off app stores,' wrote mavica. 'i found the original app when i was just starting my transition and the low-res pictures helped a lot with my dysphoria, so it meant a lot to me and i've wanted to recreate it in some form ever since then.'
it's done!!

The web app is super easy to use, and lets you adjust the brightness, contrast, and color pallet of your photos.
I never had a Gameboy, but I love the aesthetic of its camera. This is really cool, thanks for making it! pic.twitter.com/iC3oAeruDY

mavica built the entire thing over the weekend, and confirmed over direct message that the camera app doesn't store any of the photos people snap.
'[The] app is entirely client-sided, there's no storage anywhere in your device or the server, it's all only a single page with some basic javascript,' mavica explained.
This is rad!! pic.twitter.com/PKQKTVM3ZJ

'[My] favorite part that people have shared with me so far have been other trans people who also noted that the filter helps their dysphoria and i'm so glad to have spread the same feeling i had 6 years ago,' wrote mavica.
In other words, mavica's web app is not just fun — it's providing real value to people (though, of course, fun by itself is also plenty valuable).
