Hi everyone! My entry is Cart World: a little retro console with 6 cartridges. Pick a cart, push it into the slot, and play. Beat one cart to unlock the next.
đšī¸ The carts 1. Survivor: an auto-attacking horde survival game 2. Drift Kid: arcade racing where drifting is everything 3. Star Route: a vertical shoot 'em up 4. Climb Kid: a tight precision platformer, 3 chapters 5. Bounce Pit: balls bounce through rows of monster bricks 6. Card Spire: a tiny 10-floor deckbuilder
đ¨ Everything you see and hear (pixel art, chiptune music, sound effects) is generated in code. The only outside asset is one font. Every cart has its own 4-color palette, and you can swap palettes at any time.
âļī¸ Play in the browser, no download: [] Keyboard, gamepad and mobile touch all work.
I'd love your feedback, especially on: - Which cart did you play longest, and which did you drop first? - Was anything confusing in the first 30 seconds? - Is Climb Kid too hard? Is Card Spire too easy?
đŦ Leave a comment with a link to your game. I'll play it and rate it back, I promise. Thanks for playing!
