+-^CrossBow^- Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 I've pre-ordered, but do wish there was some game play footage to get a better idea of exactly what kind of game it is and how it plays of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cvga Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Love the graphics and music. Is there anything else to the gameplay as you progress? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swami Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Is it the Planet of Doom because it exploded and killed everyone save for this poor astronaut slaloming the debris? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insertclevernamehere Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) Just preordered a boxed copy. Controlling the height of your bird in Joust by pressing the fire button is one of the most addicting aspects of that game so it's awesome to see that control scheme in another game. Graphics and music also sound great. My first homebrew not bought from the AtariAge store! Edit: Er, actually that's not entirely accurate. It's my first Atari 2600 homebrew not bought from the AtariAge store. Edited April 9, 2020 by insertclevernamehere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
