Here's the small shooter I made with the early version of pico-8.

  • fire with Z
  • launch all missiles with X
  • missiles recover with time
  • missile deal double damage on non-shielded targets

With the waves attacking from the screen bottom it seemed too difficult,.
then I realized there is vertical movement!

Very nice ;)

Looks great!

This thing's got some awesome sprites. And it actually has music in it, unlike my games. Good job.

Love it!
If you crank up the rate of fire (line 140) and missile recovery (line 128) then it is still super fun and gets crazy looking :)

This is pretty dang cool. Nice work.

In addition to josh9999's suggestions, increasing the movement speed (line 132) can help the game feel hectic in a good way. ;)

What does P.A.T. stand for?

Nice job btw; the game is a little hard for my taste (or skill?), but pretty!

P#11088 2015-06-03 01:09 ( Edited 2015-06-03 05:12)

Well It stand for nothing. Actually I was hoping nobody will ask.
( I fixed a bug on the starfield which was happening only on web player )

I love the vector grid at the start - I can't think of any games or demos back in the day that did THAT effect, which, considering how simple it is... I can't think of WHY I haven't seen it before.

The game itself is one of my favorite Pico-8 games, and I keep playing it (:

P#12584 2015-08-11 19:06 ( Edited 2015-08-11 23:07)

Huh, I wonder why I never found this game before? It's freakin' AWESOME!

P#12585 2015-08-11 21:12 ( Edited 2015-08-12 01:12)

This title screen music. YES.
If a trailer was made for PICO-8, that small bit of music should be a part of it.

Favorited game.

Great game. 585 high score so far.

Hi, it's a bug?

P#20426 2016-05-11 00:32 ( Edited 2016-05-11 04:32)

i just figured out you go faster if you go on a diagonal, but thats good coz this games super hard

P#25713 2016-07-22 05:14 ( Edited 2016-07-22 09:14)

Great fun! When the screen starts filling up with enemies it becomes wonderfully chaotic. Love the missile effect- it reminds me of missile volleys from anime.

P#25825 2016-07-24 15:33 ( Edited 2016-07-24 19:33)

Damn, this game is fun! and the music is so good. Agree with DatanOde re. missile effects - very satisfying!
I really suck though - I need SHIELDS!!!

P#25830 2016-07-24 18:06 ( Edited 2016-07-24 22:11)

Great (hard) fun. Especially with a controller!

P#29435 2016-09-26 15:24 ( Edited 2016-09-26 19:24)

895 points ;D

Extremely well done!
But... One life? How about three?

P#42027 2017-06-29 21:58 ( Edited 2017-06-30 02:00)

Well done, but why only one life?

P#53696 2018-06-22 04:27 ( Edited 2018-06-22 08:27)

Fun and challenging experience! Really fun arcade shooter!
