I finally decided to order a playdate and am really excited to receive it hopefully end of the year!
It got me pretty nostalgic and and thinking about games I used to play growing up. I think Ballerburg would be awesome on the playdate. Adjusting the canons with the crank just seems perfect. Would even work as a 2 player game as it is turn based. Just thought I would put it out there in case someone is interested in recreating it.
I might give it a try myself in the future using pulp. Unfortunately for the foreseeable future I’m pretty occupied with “life”.
Very excited to see what else the community will come up with!
I also grew up on the Atari ST but I was unaware of Ballerberg as I only had a colour TV connected to my ST and didn't explore hi-res software until more recently. Looks cool!
I see the author has released the source control so it might be a little easier task than creating the game from scratch.
