Very nice!

Mechanically and resolution-wise, this really reminds me of starblazer for the Apple II (early ’80s). Watching the video of that play makes me really want to do a similar-feeling clone of starblazer and post it. I may need to fire up an apple II emulator and see how hard that sounds.

  Happy to see people inspired; if you do that and it’s FOSS, please share it here or contact me so I can try it myself :)

Something between Nokia’s Space Impact (Nokia S40 and older ARM7TDMI devices like 3310) and Zybex (Atari XL/XE)

I really like it!
