One more update (unless someone reports crashes) before the end of the submission window. https://joshaustintech.itch.io/goose-command/devlog/1516539/06-update

Developer

Updated the game today with the following:

  • Pause between game over and returning to the menu is triggered by pressing X instead of an internal timer. Multiple people asked me for this.
  • Player death is a slightly bigger explosion.
  • Binaries available for download for Windows, MacOS, Linux x86, and Linux Raspberry Pi
  • PNG cartridge for the Pico 8 faithful

Enjoy!
