A relatively small cartridge I made in a couple of days for the #p8jam2.
The theme was Chain Reaction and this is what I came up with: Exploding explosive circles.

Use arrow keys to move the cursor and Z to fire a rocket.

You are given 5 rockets and a task of destroying all 32 circles. (Bonus points for not using all rockets!)

Update 1.1
I almost forgot to update this, but I added some music and made the rocket explode so that if the crosshairs aren't directly over a circle, you still can get a chain reaction going.

If I have time, there are a few more things I would like to add:
Score - so that time can be a factor along with destroying all circles
Better circles - something like meteors or spaceships
Music - to fill the long pauses of no sfx
Explosive Rockets - instead of just missing, will create an explosion at the point shot

Simple yet very addictive. I just spent way to long swearing at those explosions.

Phew.

I lost like 30 minutes of work, but totally worth it. I HAD to finish this :'D
Great entry, simple but addictive as hell.

Nooo! I'm getting worse and worse with every new attempt!

One remaining. ONE!

Fits the theme really well! I like the music and sfx. Fun game!

Fun little game! I included it in my Pico-8 Jam #2 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :)
