Beatship

Beatship is a test-your-luck rhythmic space shooter where shooting on beat allows you to use a powerful beam weapon but one misfire and your combo resets to 0. Do you play it safe and sit on the charge you've built up or risk it to restore much needed health?

The basic space shooter elements of this game's code were made using ztiromoritz's fantastic Pico-8 tutorial which you can find here. The rest of the game was made for Yohahi's Floppy Jam. Please enjoy!

Note for those unfamiliar with Pico-8: 

On the keyboard
