It's very basic, and it's not an aesthetic that appeals to me in any way. I don't do AArt, but a quick \"ASCII art game\" google will show you my idea of direction in which this could be improved.\n\nThat said, it does have it's mood aspect because of it's audiovisual simplicity. It's not mind blowing, but it brings out a certain feeling of nostalgia that I like. Reminds me of the very first games we made with my dad.\n\nGameplay is quite basic, and it gets old pretty quick. I'm not a fan of games where you have to press the directional buttons repeatedly. I'd start with \"OnKeyPressed\" with a timeout instead of \"OnKeyDown\" (or whatever the alternative is for the programming language you used here.) I did have a bit of fun with it tho, so thank you for that.\n\nOverall it's an interesting idea. It's very different than the rest of the submissions I played, and it gets a little bit over average for inventiveness. (The best category for what I mean by that is innovation, although it doesn't fit it that well.)\n\n","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":701508,"author_name":"Honey Pony","author_uid":"honey-pony","epoch":1620855089,"text":"This game very strongly reminds me of an Atari 2600 game. The graphics and the audio certainly give this vibe--the audio especially, being straightforward beeps--but more than that, the gameplay itself gives this vibe. It's a rather simple game, with an arcadey sort of premise, and the game supports a couple different modes based on the same core gameplay. These all remind me of Atari games. Then, on top of that, there is the sort of space vibe, with a bomb thrown in for good measure.\n\nI'm not sure how useful this comparison is, but I really do think this game has a strong Atari vibe. I'm not sure if that's what you were going for, but I think it's worth pointing out.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":706611,"author_name":"udo","author_uid":"udo","epoch":1621359340,"text":"For some reason, the ZIP won't extract for me :frowning: and the \"HTML\" version is really just a Windows download.
