Bubble Pop
A simple ball catching game trying to capture the fun of blowing and catching bubbles in the backyard as dusk approaches.
My first ever pico-8 game created for and largely designed by my 3 and 5 yr olds. Thanks boys, this was fun!
Controls
Start / Game Over
❎ or ⭕ to start game
Game
➡️ blow a new bubble (if you have full bubble wand, increases score multiplier)
⬅️ move bubble wand left
⬆️ move bubble wand right
In game all controls are d-pad as my kids seemed to do better with fewer inputs.
Gameplay
Move wand to catch falling bubbles. Blow new bubbles up to keep things bouncing and increase score multiplier. Bouncing also has a chance of filling a bubble with a "power-up".
Wind direction and strength will change over time causing bubbles to drift in different directions.
Power-ups
-> Wand refill: fills wand and increases timer on any other active power-ups
-> Big wand: doubles wand width but slows your speed
-> Speed boost: increases wand movement speed
Highscore
Try not too get too high a score as I struggled a bit to handle very large numbers, lol.
Todo:
- custom font
- fix save of large high scores
- more power-ups
- more weather events
