The game style and art is so believable that i cannot tell if it is orginal game art or you have made it to emulate the design of the old Atari 2600 games, but it feels authentic and trues. Also the CRT style is very cool and believalbe loving that. It is quite annoying though to have to reopen the entire game after you die, if you could make a game over screen that would made the entire experience a lot smoother. The two player game mode works with two player but i had to go find another person to play it with, making a simple Ai would greatly increase the game experience for someone wanting to play your game from the itch.io page as playing the two player game solo is difficult. But i really like all the effort that you have put in to make it feel authentic.
Thanks for the feedback. It's a 2600 looking game, that I made sure to match to the authentic 2600 releases at the time, art style wise. I remember that the AI was definitely on the agenda at the time, however I had to release it without due to my dwindling motivation levels for the project. When I made it I was quite new to SDL, the C++ graphics library this was written in, so I didn't understand how I could loop back to the start after the a round was finished. I do think of this project from time to time, so it might be a thing I work on in the future.
