🎮 Introducing "Batout" – A PICO-8 Arcade Game 🎮
Hello PICO-8 Community!
I'm excited to present to you my very first PICO-8 game, "Batout." I developed this game with the assistance of ChatGPT-o1, providing English-language instructions for it to update the entire code base (a single text file) with each new iteration. I didn't write a single line of code myself, and I'm eager to share this novel creation with the community for your feedback and enjoyment.
✨ Game Overview ✨
"Batout" is a fast-paced arcade-style game where players use their mouse or trackball to control a paddle that bounces a ball, destroys bricks, and fends off pesky bats that introduce unexpected challenges. Navigate through multiple levels, accumulate points, and strive for high scores while avoiding falling bombs dropped by the bats!
