this vaguely reminds me of that game called lose/lose that was a shmup where each enemy represented a file on your computer, and if you killed it, the game deleted the file LOL

why shred when you can shmup?

vil i remain stoked for this idea and happy to play test!

I forgot about lose/lose!

That was the Zach Gage thing, before he started making really weird versions of classic games, right?

Gosh, I wonder if there's a name for the kind of thing vil is making? Because I always kinda love when games touch external, non-game things

that very much reminds me of a game where if i named it it would be major spoilers for three-quarters of the way in but iykyk

this is a fascinating idea - I absolutely adore the checksum/hash of the file for leaderboards! would be excited to try this too when it comes out!

yesss! good game! i like how the creator of it is a regular at games done quick

you've made a shmup ereader, but you should make it run on an ereader

have made some progress

- letters shake when they are shot
- killed letters turn grey and lifeless and can be picked up by player
- player flashes red when hit by a letter
- primary shot is now a tri-shot
- tweaked a bunch of physics numbers and hitboxes so they feel better

i'm working on a hold-down-to-fire mode that slows you down but does a higher damage stream of :

i also spent part of a flight writing up a ton of dev/design notes for how the "action word" system will work / scoring.

oh i also learned about virtual resolution / setCanvas so the game can be resized.

one thing that's weird about this is that i'm literally printing glyphs as game objects. i want this because it'd be funny for the player to be able to pick their e-reading font. but it means that, well, my "sprites" are letters. that is limiting in some ways...

hmm i definitely think you should prepackage some font to set as default, because otherwise idk how equal the checksum leaderboards would be if the hitboxes are different

Per typeface leaderboards? "Oh ya nice Helvetica score, dork. Check out my Comic Sans "
