I've created a new game for Game-Like Jam 9 on https://t.co/O7neEOroq1, taking PacMan as a starting point and adding lots of evil nasties, such as arrows, conveyor belts and sentient acid drops. Written in JS, it evokes early '80s graphics and sound.

@Rainmaker1973 Gotta love a math text that includes phrases like "...any fool can see..." 🤓

@DinnerWithBeans Yep, eaten that many times. The frozen pasty is microwaved along with the beans (or mushy peas).

@JohnHen65953721 Looks great! Reminds me of Time Pilot for the ColecoVision (1983), but faster paced.

@AMAZlNGNATURE I'm seriously disappointed by the lack of toilet humour in these comments!

Added colour coded keys and doors to my homebrew game engine for browser. Now I can unleash hordes of monsters 🧌 on the player at the turn of a key! 🗝️ 'Barbarian' sprite image is a 3rd party placeholder. #indiedev #retrogames #pixelart Almost #screenshotsaturday! 😀

@nickluvsretro Yes, it's temping to cherry pick the 'good bits'!

[MuckyTaters (github.com/MuckyTaters) @MuckyTaters]

@nickluvsretro Agree 100%. I like C, but I also like object-orientated design, and have found C++11 gives me most of what I need. I guess modern C++ has some good points, but also some really complicated stuff, and it seems like a different language.

@mbalis_bakery Just in case you need to 'replace' the Board of Directors, all of a sudden....

[MuckyTaters (github.com/MuckyTaters) @MuckyTaters]

Added 'missile' sprites and collision detection to my homebrew game engine for browser (written in vanilla #javascript). Now I can destroy hordes of green monsters 🧌 with my flying battle axe! 🪓 Sprite images are 3rd party. #indiedev #retrogames #pixelart #screenshotsaturday

@Rainmaker1973 Kumonga!

[MuckyTaters (github.com/MuckyTaters) @MuckyTaters]

@MuseumCommodore Enjoyed this back in the day. I always wondered how they got away with using the theme from 633 Squadron!

@DinnerWithBeans Loving that spam! 😀

[MuckyTaters (github.com/MuckyTaters) @MuckyTaters]

@JohnHen65953721 Amazing!

Added 'enemy' sprites to my game demo for browser, (entirely written in vanilla #javascript). No combat implemented yet, so this is like playing hide-and-seek with friendly green monsters 🧌. Sprite images are still 3rd party. #indiedev #retrogames #pixelart
