Intro
An arcade-style highscore-focused twin stick shooter. You can technically use player 2's controls for the second stick, or you can use the single button shoot controls. If you play on https://gate.itch.io/heat-death you'll get better dual-stick support.
Full source code for this game is available here: https://github.com/Gate88/heat-death/
