New game released: Timeloop (Atari Lynx)
Added 2020-08-16 21:17:50 +0000 UTCHi Everyone,
Thanks to the support and feedback from my patrons, I'm happy to present you my entry for this year's Lynx Coding Competition hosted by AtariGamer:
Timeloop is a fun game where you play future soccer against your past self(s)!
You'll control a blue robot who have to push the green ball into the goal to score points. Move with D-Pad and press A or B button to Dash. Sounds simple? Well there is a catch: the whole game plays inside an endlessly repeating timeloop!
Every 6 seconds, the timeloop will reset the game. Your previous avatar will turn red, and it will move exactly like you did during the previous timeloop. You will play as another robot, always in blue. Up to 8 robots can play at the same time: your current avatar, and 7 of your previous incarnations. So, in this game you'll face the ultimate opponent: yourself!
There is an increasing "score limit" to reach on each timeloop to be able to continue the game. It starts easy, but quickly become challenging.
My current best score is 40 points. Can you do better?
