Antsy Alien Attack Pico is a juicy retro-style vertically scrolling shoot ’em up. It is my love letter 💌 to the shmups I played in the arcades in the ’80s and ’90s 🕹️ and my entry to Linux Game Jam 2023 🐧

This marks the end of the game jam and the initial release of Antsy Alien Attack Pico. It is available to play via browser with downloads for Debian, Ubuntu (also in the Snap Store), AppImage, Nix Flake, Raspberry Pi, macOS and Windows.

Here’s a play-though video
