Hack all the terminals and defeat the boss.
This is my attempt at making a polished game in a week and a half, although it ended up being 2 weeks. I had to drop a few features I wanted to put in due to time, and code ended up getting a bit messy. Still, I'm pretty happy with how it came out.
The frame rate can drop sometimes, particularly in the later parts of the game when there are a lot of enemies around.


I mean... WOW. 👏🤩
I grew up loving Turrican II on the Amiga, and this scratches that itch too.
Excellent art, great sound, tough as nails.
This is now one of the best platformers on the console.


The game is legit, 100%. But I think there should be an option to reverse the buttons (shoot/jump). To me, it feels like they're backwards, and I can't really play it well as-is.


@BitwiseCreative, since you have Pico-8 yourself as seen from your successful button test program, in the main Pico-8 program, load up this game with:
load #xzero |
Then in immediate mode type out KEYCONFIG and ENTER. Configure the keyboard the way you would like and RUN the game from there.
