The character reminds me a little of Mr. Postman's bear.

I tried to hide it...lolol

[alfredtdk]

I loved the game. The character is very cute and has the definitions to be a mascot.🐻

[alfredtdk]

Have you thought about giving him a name?

I like this game.  Simple, yet challenging.

[alfredtdk]

My first and second score.

[alfredtdk]

Is this the final version? Do you want to implement something else?
Do you think about launching a physical cartridge in the future? Thanks

it's possible for more things, I don't intend to launch it for the cartridge, it's just for fun

It's just a suggestion of mine, like the old 4k games like River Raid or Megamania, use the A-B difficulty, easy or hard level keys.

It's just like the homebrew "Miss It!" but alot harder!

[Xan]

it is true! this version also seems to be inspired by Dodge it from channel f

In the easy difficulty we would get a higher score with the slower enemies.

The hard difficulty is what it is currently. Could we select both in the difficulty keys?

Strange. I am not able to select colors for difficulty. Tested on Linux stella 6.0.2. 🤔

Sorted out. It was simply to change the difficulty keys A or B and then proceed to restart the game.
Do not press the fire button to start.

My current score in the orange phase.

[alfredtdk]

Do I assume that the red phase is hardest?  That was the maximum I got so far in the score. 

[alfredtdk]

And for today and everything folks!🐷 My score from the orange level. I still hope to get new records.

I would suggest upgrading your version of Stella at some point.  Version 2.0.1 is 15 years old!  We are at version 6.5.1 right now.  The have been huge advancements in the emulation accuracy in the past 15 years.

 Thanks for the tip, what's the difference from 6.5.1 to this one I use?🤨
