Thanks for sharing these articles. Very fun and interesting when they pop up on my feed 😁👍

Maddeningly amazing. These 10 liner games show so much talent and are usually just outright fun!

I make sprites on my phone with an app which seem fine when animating but as soon as I actually test them with movement they always have 'wonky leg syndrome' 🫢

You'd think I'd learn 🙃

Marvellous!

Yes yes yes!!! SCION master tape has arrived and it's working perfectly! @bitmapsoft.bsky.social we are GO for production! 😁😁😁 #ZXSpectrum #retrogaming #indiedev #8bit

Wonderful 👍 looking foward to this!

Agreed! 👍👍

Congrats!

Amazing game by an amazing dev.

Get your pennies ready everyone! 😁🦦

Holy moley! That's amazing. 😁

😁 thanks for the kind words.
I will eventually make a better version (more levels hopefully)

You are an inspiration with your games. Love the Steamboat Willie game 👍👍

Thanks for the share friend 🦦❤️

Very messy sketches, I might have been a bit more particular if I'd known they would be seen! 😅
