My first arcade game on #picotron!
controls: left, right O(z) to fly)

instruction-gameplay: see the attract mode.

Enjoy!

rev 2: Since update on #picotron 0.1.0C the MAP() function stopped working and draw nothing. Hopefully the MGET() is back! So I fixed it with custom MGET() to SPR(MGET(x,y)...) to temporary solve it! @zep got another fix to do for 0.1.0d.

rev 3: added demo to attract mode and improved egg's sprite and enemys flying move.
rev 4: fixed some graphics et level map changes.
rev 5: Nice background obsession drive me to apply this. :)

Me as Lostcadesoft will be back on game making on this new cool #picotron. This is my snippet for use of sprite based font! (originaly snippet by @thattomhall on Pico-8) This is the font I'll use on my first games's release on #picotron. He're my share, use it if you like it. I love that classic Namco/Nintendo font!

-The SPRINT x/y cordinate are in 8x8 boundaries caracter block.
-uppercase letters only supported.

If some of you guys got something better about custom 8x8 retro font snippet, up to you!

Enjoy!
