A 16-bit chiptune rhythm game with original music, all made in 72 hours.
Play HERE in a web-browser supporting WebGL
(the game is ~11 MB large, please wait for it to load)
Rules:
- You are a square.
- Other squares attack you.
- Press arrow keys in directions of the attackers to defend.
- Don't click too late or too soon – failed attack costs you points.
- You get points for every successful defence.
- The more precise your timing is, the more points you get.
- Get as many points as you can.
Btw. there is an online high score leaderboard!

Ludum Dare 38 entry for theme "A Small World"
Thought processes:
- a small world -> needs protection -> fend off attacks from all directions
- world -> word == 16 bits -> retro-styled game

Changes since submission (v1.0):
v1.1 (2017-04-28):
- porting:
- implemented touch controls
- reduced RAM usage
- added "meta" tags to the WebGL page generated by Unity to support adding the game to Home Screen on iOS
- => You can now play it on mobile! (tested on iOS 10.2, if anybody has Android, please test if/how it works :wink:)
- Instead of pressing arrow keys, tap the top/bottom/left/right side of the screen.
- On iOS the sound does not work - workaround:
1. Open the game in Safari.
2. Press the "share" button (bottom, in the middle).
3. Choose "Add to Home Screen", confirm with "Add".
4. Start the game from Home Screen. (Make sure the audio/ringing is not muted.)
5. Enjoy
- fixes:
- fixed missing name in leaderboard when no name is submitted
- added text "Loading..." to leaderboard when the HiScore table loads
- added black borders to hide "out-of-display" items (fixes squares appearing outside of the game area on wide-screen resolutions, e.g. in full-screen mode)
- misc:
- updated link to Itch.io, added cover image
- changed background colour of the WebGL page generated by Unity
- known bugs:
- player name can't be set on mobile (WebGL does not allow on-screen keyboard on mobile platforms)
Older versions are available at the bottom of the game's page at Itch.io.
