I just released my new game, Bullet in the Train, on Lexaloffle. It will be available on Itch soon. It's a score chaser inspired by action movies on a train. https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=149334 #gamedev #PICO8

Not quite in time to compress the code for #tweettweetjam but I did my darndest to make a tiny game during this week. A lil burger-maker! And it's honestly pretty fun! Might make this into something.

So over on the ShmupJunkie Discord there was a #shmup scoring competition. They were playing Cattle Crisis for two weeks. And the runs are insane! Indra_S came out in top with a WR of 6 Million!

Code below:

In 2014 I releaed "Atoms" for iOS, based on a 1981 Sharp MZ80 game. Inspired by the recent release of Gone Fission, I dug up the story of how I found the developers of the original 1981 game.
