Making the #GameBoy / Color #Axelay #demake demo ROM & source public.

It's been a year and still haven't worked on it more (even to clean up the demo source), so may as well make it available in it's current state.

(Note: there isn't much more to it than what is shown here. 😅 )

Edit: Also includes a #MegaDuck ROM, but it's very hard to see it on that console's screen.
