Its an Atari game inspired by the many AVGN Atari videos. I love the Texas chainsaw massacre episode along with the Halloween one. They inspired me along my game development journey to create my own Atari game. I hope you enjoy.

Haha i made this game so quick in like a week I'm going to make it bigger eventually but I'm going to remake it from scratch because I've became friends with real programmers and this isn't done right nor optimized but small enough where the frame rate isn't terrible. I'm currently working on a game named bombhead that I've learned alot from. Learning how to actually program so the game can be large and still optimized. You will see alot more from me my friend.

It took me a few min to figure out how to get past the tutorial. The game controls are a little difficult to use. I have not been able to control the ship except to make it land, the walking part works but why is there not a clear distinction where I will fall into some hole if that is what is happening. What am i getting points for? Catching people, shooting them? The sound is very good but with game play issues I would only rate 2 stars.

DarkBehindFlat responds:

You have to press space in the middle of each building 🏢, I mean almost dead center to keep your ship flying it will shoot a Lazer at the building catapulting you forward. The goal is to shoot the bombs dropping on you and shoot the guy when you land in the streets to gain points. The gameplay is alittle simple because I tried making it Atari style I will constantly update it because I found a bug. I will try to expand this game and make it better.

This is, for all intents and purposes, a legit Atari game. I commend you highly for nailing the gameplay feel. And the sound! Oh! The sound! That has to be my favorite for this. The only thing missing is the classic joystick controller.

Atari always felt like an alien game console to me. I had a general idea how to play the games but they didn't make the most sense as to why they played that way. This captures that through and through. Excellent job!

DarkBehindFlat responds:

Thank you soo much for your positive review its my goal to make sure my players enjoy each and every game I put out.

wtf?

DarkBehindFlat responds:

What seems to be the issue I'm sorry for your experience.
