Title: Cowbduction - a game made with PureBasic
Post by: ricardo_sdl on August 31, 2020, 22:16:37
Hello!
I just released Cowbduction (https://ricardo-sdl.itch.io/cowbduction), a small action/arcade game developed with PureBasic (and the web version created with SpiderBasic). The source code is also avaliable if anyone is interested. Here is a small video of the gameplay:



Thank you all!

He he, that's novel and very cute. Reminds me of something you'd play on a GameBoy.

I like it.

(About three days ago I was thinking about a game like Defender....you might remember it...very similar but in reverse)

Thanks Qube and Matty! Indeed it is the reverse principle of Defender.

The color combination used for the game is simple but effective. Moreover, the core idea of the gameplay of the game is special and challenging.

Thank you round157. I used the original Game Boy palette (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_video_game_console_palettes#Game_Boy) for the graphics.

Many modern gamers should like this type of color combination.

The following machine is Game Boy.
