Thanks so much! as for the story, its a spin off of another game of ours named "Shmup it up" where basically in the final act, Chicken John hands "Lenny" (the hero of that game and chicken johns best friend) his favorite burger (for luck and courage) before the final showdown!

One guy. One burger. A hundred levels of alien trouble.

Meet Chicken John, an unlikely space hero with one very important mission: deliver Lenny's burger.

Unfortunately, the galaxy has other plans.

Chicken John's Radical Space Adventure is our latest retro-inspired platforming adventure from EightFour Games!

Explore alien installations, fight bizarre creatures, navigate dangerous obstacles, activate switches, discover routes and make your way through 100 increasingly challenging levels.

And here's the interesting bit: every new game generates a fresh world. So there's always another adventure waiting.

What's waiting for you?

  • 100 levels
  • Procedurally generated worlds
  • 30 enemy archetypes
  • Switch-based puzzles and environmental challenges
  • Classic run, jump and shoot gameplay
  • Keyboard and touchscreen controls

It's colourful, it's challenging, it's a little ridiculous, and it has a burger at the centre of the entire intergalactic crisis.

We had a lot of fun making this one, and we hope you have just as much fun playing it.

Lenny is waiting. Don't keep him hungry.

Thank you very much for the gracious words! 

Sure thing!

Such a wonderful experience! felt like i was watching a movie. well done!!! the beauty of it is the graphics, it leaves a lot to the imagination and i love that, you fill in the gaps and create a visual world of your own. would highly recommend!!!

Humanity has a problem.

Thirty enemy bases. An army of machines. Twenty specialised tanks. Fifty rescue objectives.

And one man.

His name is Sylvio Jay Shwasernagger. He's humanity's last tank pilot, and he's about to make CYBRAX regret existing.

We're excited to announce that SUPER FINAL MAN is now available!

Explore a procedurally generated world that changes with every new game. Command a fleet of twenty unique combat vehicles, take on the CYBRAX war machine, destroy enemy installations and rescue survivors scattered across the planet.

Every tank has its own weapons and abilities. Every battlefield brings new challenges. And every destroyed tank is gone for good.

So choose your machines carefully.

This is our latest independent game at EightFourGames, and we hope you'll have as much fun playing it as we've had making it.

Give it a go, tell us what you think, and let us know how far you get.

Thirty bases. Twenty tanks. Fifty rescues. One Sylvio.

The world isn't going to save itself.

Amazing! easy to learn, yet difficult to master!

Hi! sounds like a great idea!! drop us a mail at ei4ht.hello@gmail.com and we can take this ahead.

[CLASSIFIED PROTOCOL] TOXIC SECTORS? THERE IS AN EMERGENCY OVERRIDE.

If Bobby AI’s security subroutines are giving you absolute hell and Nightmare Mode is turning your screen into a total graveyard, listen up.

We designed Dread Vector ( Dread Vector by EightFour Games ) to test your raw reflexes and weapon swapping speed. But every classic 90s action setup has a secret back-door emergency protocol buried in the source code.

Feeling completely pinned down in Sector 10? Need an absolute safety net to guarantee all 10 Continuity Ten cards make it out?

We built a hidden GODMODE cheat code directly into the build. But we aren't handing it over that easily.

HOW TO UNLOCK THE CODE

If the grid gets too hot to handle and you need the full emergency override, leave a comment below with the phrase:

"Bobby AI must be destroyed"

Once the community drops enough override requests, we’ll decrypt and post the exact keyboard sequence right here in the thread.

Drop the phrase below if you need the payload decrypted!

Hey everyone!

We’re thrilled to announce that Shmup It Up is officially OUT NOW on itch.io!

What started as an homage to the classic handheld LCD consoles we grew up with evolved into a massive, feature-packed vertical shmup built directly inside a simulated handheld shell.

THE STORY

When a modified retro handheld console begins picking up real-time galactic distress calls, an unlikely hero—Lenny, a mall janitor with a hidden engineering mind—becomes the head tactical operator for the Zolathian Royal Fleet.

Together with Commander Kara, you’ll pilot a fleet of starships across 11 sectors to take down the Xornan Armada.

WHAT’S INSIDE THE GAME?

  • 30 Playable Starships: Master 15 core fleet vessels (like the high-armor TITAN or phase-shifting PHANTOM) and unlock 15 hidden prototype craft through rescue runs.
  • 26 Weapon Upgrades & 30 Specials: Deploy screen-clearing Star-Bombs, Black Holes, Homing Missile Swarms, Time Dilation fields, and Invulnerable Ram Dashes.
  • 11 Multi-Phase Bosses: Face off against giant screen-filling bosses—including the WASP QUEEN, CLOCKWORK TITAN, and OMEGA CORE—with shifting bullet-hell patterns.
  • Dual Rendering Modes: Switch instantly on-the-fly between nostalgic LCD Monochromatic Mode (with realistic screen ghosting) and vibrant 2.5D Color Arcade Mode!
  • Two Full Game Modes: Play through the narrative-driven Main Campaign or test your precision in The Lost Fleet obstacle courses.

HOW TO PLAY

Shmup It Up is available now as a paid release! Your purchase unlocks:

  1. Instant Web Browser Play: Click and play directly inside your browser on desktop or mobile with zero setup!
  2. Offline Download (ShmupItUp.zip): Download the full game package to run locally on Windows, Mac, Linux, ChromeOS, or mobile devices anytime.

Grab your ship, charge your specials, and save the fleet!

Thank you so much for the support—let us know your high scores and favorite ship builds in the comments below!

ATTENTION!

If you’ve been breezing through computational sectors and think you’ve mastered Dread Vector, it’s time to test if your reflexes can actually back up that confidence.

We built 84 Games around a core philosophy: zero visual bloat, maximum kinetic focus, and pure mechanical skill. But let’s be honest—too many modern games hold your hand. We want to wake up the hardcore gamer inside you.

THE CHALLENGE: NIGHTMARE MODE

Nightmare Mode isn't just an aggressive difficulty bump. It transforms the data bank into an unforgiving, high-octane pressure cooker:

  • Zero Margin for Error: One bad position check or mistimed dodge, and Bobby’s subroutines will delete you on the spot.
  • Relentless Sector Guardians: The Warden and Bobby AI won't give you breathing room. You’ll need to swap weapons on the fly, abuse every tactical alt-fire, and master crowd-control tools like the Link Gun just to stay alive.
  • True Continuity Run: Recovering all 10 Continuity Ten identity cards on Nightmare Mode is the ultimate test of speed, route planning, and precision.

HOW FAR CAN YOU BREACH?

We want to see who actually has what it takes to survive the full 11-sector run under maximum pressure.

  1. Boot up Dread Vector (DV-84 Rev 1.0) Dread Vector by EightFour Games
  2. Crank the difficulty to Nightmare Mode.
  3. Post your sector clear times, final scores, or death counts right here in the community discussions!

Are you going to let Bobby AI sweep the grid, or are you going to show us what real high-octane gaming looks like?

Drop your run updates, clips, and strategies below. Let's see who claims the top spot!

– 84 Games Studio

We're 84 Games, an independent game studio, and Dread Vector is our first release.

Dread Vector is a fast-paced first-person shooter set inside a corrupted computational network. It brings together modern FPS gameplay and a visual style inspired by two rather extraordinary machines: the Vectrex and Nintendo's Virtual Boy.

Expect geometric enemies, vector corridors, a sizeable arsenal, dangerous security sectors, arena combat and a little arcade surprise along the way.

We've put a lot of love into making this one, and we're rather excited to finally share it with you.

This is just the beginning for 84 Games. We have plenty of ideas waiting to become playable realities.

Give Dread Vector a try, and tell us what you think! We would genuinely love to hear your feedback, suggestions and experiences.
