Versions

Depending on your device and browser, the game may stutter in the browser version. In that case, please import this cart to PICO-8 or launch it from SPLORE.

You can also download the game on itch.io: https://noppa.itch.io/shelled-shinobi.

It's currently also possible to lower the framerate in code by changing the value of 'fps_60' in '_init()' (could be useful for e.g. RPi0 users?).
