A prototype PICO-8 shmup I made to learn PICO-8! This short demo features:

  • Punchy action gameplay
  • Procedurally generated starfield background, explosions, and rocket exhaust
  • Music by yours truly!

No plans on finishing it, since shmups aren't my thing, but it was fun to play around with.

Thanks to Lazy Devs Academy's PICO-8 shmup tutorial for the fun walkthrough on making this. It was fun adding my own spin to things. All enemy sprites are sourced from community contributions to that project. All other sprite art is created by me.
