Unibomber
About
I wanted to do something small scale to get myself to actually finish a thing, so I gave myself a time limit of 24 hours to build a complete game. I finished in roughly 20 hours, so mission accomplished! As my goal was to finish and move on, this will probably be the only version (imperfect though it may be) of this game I upload unless some game-breaking bug surfaces. Why this particular concept? I dunno, the whole idea of the army sending tanks after a unicyclist struck me as funny. Why black & white? I just love good one bit art. Mine is not what I'd call good, but I think it's charming at least.
Credit- The explosion particle system is something I've been using since @Krystman's Breakout Hero tutorial and tweaking along the way depending how complex/simple I need it to be. The particle code here is actually really similar to the code used in the current shmup tutorial it turns out, but it came from Breakout Hero originally and has lived in my snippets folder ever since.
- The opening song is my rough attempt at a simple translation of "The Entertainer", a piano tune from 1902 by Scott Joplin. I think this song is great at letting you know that what you're about to play is very silly.
My current high score is 43. I'd love to see how you all do. Thank you for playing!
