Fortunately, this time the implementation was pretty straightforward and didn't take too much time. Sure, it could be improved in many ways but this is good enough for now.
I'll try to write a micro-article here on Mastodon. Let's see how it goes :D
Why aren't the classic arena shooters so popular today? Is it just things being better "in the old times"? Why do modern #FPS #games suck? Did arena shooters suck too? Do they suck now?
Asking a lot of questions is fun. I am gonna share some facts that will hopefully help you answer them.
The first problem is that classic arena shooter game design is incredibly brutal.
Think #deathmatch in #Quake 3 or #UT'99 ...
(Probably) reinventing the wheel. I didn't even check if there were any existing add-ons for arcade high score initials entry using joystick/gamepad.

It is done!
I wanted to do something different from what I usually do, so this is true 2D, contains no shooting or violence, and was made in about 15 hours (instead of the usual four years per game).
