Wanted to challenge myself to a one day build, which mostly happened. I've started so many different Pico-8 projects and I just really wanted to "finish" something so I decided to just try and recreate and old classic and give myself one-ish day to complete it.
Managed to create almost the entire game in my arbitrary time limit. I just spent the following morning making a title screen.
Anyways, it's pretty basic game. Just move left and right if you want and time your charges to hit the subs! Drop charges by pressing left and right at the same time. The meter show when a charge is ready to fire.
Wow, this was a lot of fun! :D Fantastic work for a one-day build! My highest was level 18.
For those confused hold down LEFT AND RIGHT to drop a depth charge. Key (O) might've been easier ? :)
Good game. Star for you.
You really did a good job here for just one day! However, as @dw817 said, using O or X to fire would have been easier, because you can't exactly press both left and right simultaneously on most gamepads.
