  • dont-give-up-the-cat

    Tonight, your owner let you out in the woods

  • I made this sprite scaler game here https://eri0o.itch.io/dont-give-up-the-cat

    I usually make these small games because I find easier to scope and plan and finish. Some I attempted with bigger scope remain unfinished.

  • invaders

    A 1980s-arcade-style game written using HTML5, Canvas, and Web Audio (by susam)

  • I wrote an invaders-style game last year: https://susam.net/invaders.html

    It was, in fact, a childhood dream of mine to write a game like this. However, the little GW-BASIC programming I knew and the very limited access to computers I had then was insufficient to write anything more sophisticated than simple text-based input/output programs. Although 25 years too late, writing this little game fulfilled that childhood dream of mine!
