A downloadable game for Windows

We're being invaded by aliens! Quick! Shoot them all before they reach you or it's game over! Oh, yeah... Don't forget to get a high score as well because... that's important!

Space Attack is a shout-out to the classic, pocket LCD games that many of you may have grown up with. The most notable example would be Nintendo's Game & Watch Series. The purpose of this first game developed by Mr. Hobbyist Games was to recreate the style, feel, sound, and arcade challenge of these classic games. It may be simple, but it packs a fun challenge that will do wonders when you need to pass some time quickly.

FEATURES:

  • Classic, arcade-action space shooter. 
  • Simple controls. Easy to pick up, challenging to master.
  • Pocket LCD-game style. Plays and feels just like a Game & Watch!
  • Unlockable Color Mode. Get a score of 500 or greater to unlock color mode.
  • XBOX gamepad support. Use a keyboard or your trusty XBOX controller.

Seems nice to play, pitty it's not fully LCD complient. Is there going to be an online version? If so, let me know, then i'd like to share it on my game page, if you don't mind. A console casing would be a nice addition to the game.

Hey, thanks for the comment. This was just a simple game I made for fun, so I don't have any plans on expanding it. I appreciate you reaching out, though.  If you do decide to share it on your game page, that's fine with me. Just let me know.

Pitty, looks like fun, but can't share it on my game page if it's not online playable. If you should ever make an online version, just let me know.

Fair enough. Thank you anyway.

I'm hosting a G&W-themed LCD jam next month-- it would be great to have you as part of it!
