This is a great entry; really feels like an arcade game. Oh, you missed a fuel canister? Go ahead and cough up another quarter, my friend haha.

Frantic, challenging, something you only get better at by repetition and memorization. Very retro.

really nice retro game, the music is good and everything in this game work nice, good job!

Submitted

I really like it.

V-VICTORY! Nice retro game, it was quite fun to play

Submitted

Such a fun game, quite hard also, I really liked the sounds. I have one small suggestion, after dying to a boss, there could be a small invincibility period, so that you don't get chain killed by it. Really cool submission!

Super fun! I liked the color pallete.

Very retro arcade game. Slightly tough game but just makes getting past stuff a lot more satisfying.

Submitted

The game was pretty fun! I don't feel like you should be able to die by touching the sides of walls, but that might just be me.

"Victory!" These sounds trigger a lot of memories! I love/hate this explosion...

Fitting retro look & feel. The zoom before the boss fights was a welcome surprise =)

Had a lot of fun playing your game!

nice atari feel game, its been ages since I played on my atari 7800, so I was better at A-lining straight into the boats vs avoiding them lol. also somehow I got a -1 attempt and the game froze, after I died.

Submitted

I watched your devlog! good job! difficulty is a bit brutal lol

Submitted

Oh man, I am not good at this game hahaha after a while, it started to click though. Great job on the overall theme and feel!

Developer

Thank you!

Fun game! Pretty hard but also pretty forgiving for slow gamers like myself. 

One small thing I noticed: the crt overlay only seemed to cover part of my screen (played on mac in google chrome).


Developer

Glad you enjoyed it, and yes I have encountered that bug before but I couldn't fix it and figure out what caused it.

Fun take on an old game, definitely a good interpretation of the theme. The draining on the fuel really doesn't leave you a lot of room for error, which I kind of like. I think the inclusion of being able to destroy the fueling pads is both frustrating and hilarious, it really feels like a decision an old Atari game would include.

Submitted

That second phase on the boss is crazy hahahah
Very cute game and a great concept for the retro theme. I do find the fuel runs out a bit quick tho😅

Awesome stuff!

Developer

I was worried it was a bit too difficult but its pretty funny and there is a way to get it consistently, glad you enjoyed it.
