I finished my latest game which has been written for the Syntax Bomb coding competition. The theme this time was Retro Wars, where you could pick your favourite retro computer from the 80's and make a game that looks like it could be played on that machine. The only hard rule was the colour palette should be the same. I picked the Commodore 64 and wrote my tribute to Spy Hunter, which I've called Damnation Alley. You can find more info on the Itch.IO page for the game. You can also download either a PC or Mac version of the game to see what you think. Naturally, it's a free game to play.

As a bonus I added my own take of the old tape loading game called InvadeAload. Many space invaders were blasted playing this back in the day while waiting for the main game to load in. You can exit this mini-game at any time by pressing escape.
