Wish there was a singleplayer option

I had a go by myself and it looks like it would be quite a lot of fun to play properly.

Thanks JoshDBB. I Would of liked to make a one player version szahn but didn't have the time. I had trouble to trying to play by myself while taking a screenshot :)

Interesting concept. I don't have a friend to play this with though.

The pixels are strong in this one. and I like it! can I ask about the font? it looks perfect for arcade games.

Nice to see a 2 player-1 Keyboard game, you don't see those often nowadays.
I will try it with a friend later and give gameplay feedback.

Thanks CyberStarLight. I'd be very happy if someone managed to find someone to play it with. Font is Arcade Classic. http://www.dafont.com/arcade-classic-pizz.font

Fun idea, nice work!

wow, that's really nice! simple rules and very pretty look;
reminds me an old game called "tron", but the acorns give it more tactical twist -- which is so much fun!
