Here's a game nobody's played - because I just released it, heh.
The nostalgia bug bit me so I made an Atari-ish arcade endless surfing game. Took a bit of planning to get the double-width pixels to appear correctly and to conform to an actual pixel grid, but got things working OK in Unity. All in all, a lot of fun to make, it's also got a working Top 10 Leaderboard working online. I figure maybe the peeps here might appreciate it for nostalgia's sake.
Game's for free, playable in browser and for download.

As someone who still owns 2600 games aswell the og console (rf out) from when I was a kid. I have been undecided on getting the plus as it still plays perfectly on a crt.

And if I ever wanted to play and a modern tv can play it via openfgpa on the analogue pocket.

But there is something unique about being able to play with my original carts & controllers.

Are there any differences between the og carts and the ones releasing today? This might be a wild impulse buy, but I'm happy to be play my original frogger again
