Shoot or Run by ObscenelyTrue

made by ObscenelyTrue for LD 44 (COMPO)

You are a criminal on the run. A bounty hunter wants to kill you... your life is worth less than your reward.

How to play?

You can use any Amstrad CPC 6128 emulator. For instance, with http://www.cpcbox.com/, choose CPC 6128 as configuration, insert the disk ld44.dsk and execute the command: run "sor.bas". That's it.

Yeah, cool. Didnt even know there is an online CPC emulator. (maybe you should point this out, no download needed @adrien-dittrick )
The game was nicely retro - pure 8bittish text and all, reminded me of the basic games of days past. Which it probably was. Made it until 1930 in Memphis. :grin:
Unusual, I liked it! Good job! :thumbsup:
(btw you need to rate other games to be displayed further up in the list and get reviews yourself :wink:)

Hehe, another one making a game for an old platform. I liked the very simple control scheme and the premise. But I don't think I completely got the game. Is there a downside to always shooting? It makes my bounty go up I think, but is that bad?
I ended up always shooting (which was kind of fun).
